I admit, I’ve smoked a few cigarettes in my day. But I’ve never been desperate enough to rub nicotine directly into my pores.

Huh? Yep, this morning I discovered Nicogel at the local Speedway (my first mistake today—not visiting my Wild Bean Café friend). In case you happen to live somewhere like Indianapolis, where smoking is banned from most restaurants, Nicogel has finally arrived on store shelves as your savior. Just rub the gel directly into the palms of your hands… Voila! Instant nicotine buzz!

I’m happy to report that Nicogel isn’t a BLAST client and my heart (and lungs) go out to their internal PR person (if they have one).

Addiction is a disease, but wouldn’t you rather quit smoking than use ridiculous alternatives like Nicogel to perpetuate your poor health habits?
