I have been reading Glenn's Rants about Diners and so on and thought to myself, Man Glenn is stuck in the past. wake up brother its a new century but this one crosses the line folks.
When I was a teenager I chewed Skoal and Redman. Sure I thought it was cool but actually I also enjoyed it. I even learned how to do that snap packing with your index fingur and had a Jack Daniels skoal lid. I loved the commericals with Walt Garrison sitting on the wooden fence and Earl Campell just putting in a pinch between his cheek and gum and walking off the beach with the hot babe in the bikini. Skoal was a manly thing to do. All my brothers chewed skoal. When they interviewed the washington redskins hall of fame offensive line All the guys had a pinch working, Jacoby, bostic, grim. It was cool and men who didn't smoke, chewed.
Well blow me over with a pink feathered Boa. I walked into a store yesterday and saw PEACH SKOAL. WTF - peach flavored skoal? Come on!!!! Whos chewing this shit now, Richard Simmons. For the love of Walt Garrison what moron thought about this one. So I decided to see what other femine products skoal has decided to peddle to the masses. Low and behold their is also now citrus, berry, apple and vanilla. WHo the hell is their marketing consultant - martha stewart. THis is tobacco folks. This isn't 1-800-flowers. Pretty soon they are gonna be marketing skoal products that produce pretty colored spit. Geezus H thrice is nothing sacred anymore. I heard they will be coming out with Broke Back Mountain Skoal. I wonder what that will taste like.![]()
