Abstract

A non-smoking material comprises a non-cellulose carrier homogenously mixed with a flavor enhancing proportion of distiller's dried grain with solubles. The non-burning composition is useful as a tobacco substitute. In one use, the composition of the invention is disposed in a cigarette like form to simulate a cigarette and used in a similar manner to give the "smoker" pleasure and oral gratification.
