I didn't want to make a big deal out of it and get the FA since I didn't know if that was allowed or not.
Anyways...I felt sick when I got off that flight..yuk !
I believe chew is NOT allowed. That said, with SNUs getting popular it is possible for somebody to have tobacco in and nobody would ever know. They do not produce spit.

In Sky Magazine it also says something like "smoking and the use of smokeless tobacco is prohibited."
