Question

Does chewing tobacco require kosher certification?

Answer

Hello,

Tobacco itself does not require kosher certification, but chewing tobacco usually contains flavoring agents, and since they enter the mouth in a manner similar to eating, it should be kosher.

[Unlike regular cigarettes where the tobacco is inhaled].
