I'm guessing that anywhere were your allowed to have a soda, a cup of water, etc, you can probably dip or chew.

And there's a Trick to making a spitoon that doesn't spill so easily. What you do is take a 1 liter soda bottle. Cut the top off with your handy dandy multi function tool, about 2 to 3 inch's down from the top, so you have some of the body of the bottle with the top. Grab a paper towel or three, wad them up, and stuff it in the decapitated 1 liter soda bottle. Then take your top, flip it over so its upside down and smash it down into the soda bottle so the opening youd normally wrap your lips around is inside the bottle.

If you did it right, you should have a pretty tight seal. It's not leak proof, but it'll do just nicey if it gets bumped around. Your new flipped over top, acts as a natural spitoon, the paper towels help absorb some of the liquid that's going to accumulate there, and since its not wide open, it keeps some of the stink down. You have to stick your nose to it to smell it. Normal spit cups can reek after awhile. Another great thing about this setup, is its EASILy recongizeable from say... a normal soda can. (Yeah, I've seen that unmentionable mistake happen at a barracks party )

That setup works great for dip. Chewing tabbacco.. it wont last very long. Chew makes you juice a helluva lot more then snuff or dip.
