My brother used to do chewing tobacco. He would spit into pop bottles. He left one laying around in the kitchen. I tried to steal a sip of what I thought was A&W root-beer. It was the same colour.
What came next was the most disgusting thing I've ever experienced. Imagine drinking someone's thick cold saliva mucus that had a disgusting apple cinnamon and smokey tar taste.
I ran to the sink as fast as I could and spat it out and forced myself to throw up.
Jeezus, I almost threw up just reading this. ๐คฎ
I dipped for 10 years, I would also drink while dipping. One time I went to take a sip of a beer and it was my buddy's spit beer bottle, I just spit the spit back out no issues and found my beer.
The moral of the story is to always have a spit bottle that is different from your drinking bottles. (I also quit 6 years ago)
Been there, done that, roommate spit in a Coke can.
