I (regrettably) tried a nicotine pouch. It made me question what I think about addiction | Imogen West-Knights
Briefly

The thought of vaping in a train toilet felt like degradation too far; I avoided it, fearing smoke detectors revealing my shame to fellow passengers.
I realized I am pathetically addicted to nicotine. As I faced a long train journey, I noticed the colorful nicotine pouches at WH Smith, sparking intrigue.
Nicotine pouches have surged in popularity, with brands like Zyn seeing a 62% sales rise in 2023, and potential for 2 million UK users by 2026.
Initially, I dismissed nicotine pouches as a disgusting trend. Having lived in Sweden, I recognized them as snus, a staple there, but felt they wouldn’t catch on in Britain.
