Beedies

Several months back, while pumping gas at a local BP, I came upon beedies. These hand rolled Indian cigarettes piqued my interest and I’ve been savoring them ever since.

Today, I came to the sad conclusion that I had developed a habit. Rather than reach for a cigar when I had the urge to puff after a good meal, I was reaching for a beedie.

Though beedies lack the chemicals associated with a cigarette, they are still high in nicotine, carbon monoxide and tar. Getting up in the morning with a sore throat is back, as well as being out of breath on bike rides.

Another nasty habit to break, oh well, it was fun while it lasted.
