Feening for nicotine, settling for.. sunflower seeds?

Bigs. Zest Ranch specifically. I quit puffing on 12/10 (one month clean today), and I immediately went to the store and bought out Bigs zesty ranch flavored sunflower seeds. My friend said “Don’t sunflower seeds just have a little bit of nicotine in them?” 

I am not the kind of person that looks at the nutrition labels, tracks calories, or even works out really. I had no clue if I was ingesting nicotine in a different way so I looked it up.

 

It turns out, sunflower seeds do *not* have nicotine in them. They do, however mimic the effects of nicotine in your brain without the addictive chemical. They also helped me with the oral fixation that comes with puffing. 

Right now, I’ll use every tool I have!
