if its not dry it should be good. if its in a plastic tin you can put a little water on it to keep it going or if its the bottom of an old tin mix it with a new one.

if its dry and you just bought it take it back and get a new one

If it's dry, just stick it in your armpit for a few minutes. Makes it all "fresh" again.

That's old. If it's not dry already it will be very shortly after you open it. Get a new can.

Well if it was made on the 5th it should be completly fine man. Normally dip cans have dates of expiration or a date to use before for fresh taste. If the can was sealed and not opened, theres not much of a reason why it would dry out. If it is a little dry, it aint gunna hurt you, its just leaves. Also, on cope, don't add alot of water to the can since Cope cans are made of cardboard and don't seal up tight. Been doing the habit for too long to quit, put in my first pinch in the 4th grade bathroom at school. However, I've been lucky. Little bit of gum receeding, but the dentist says I have perfect teeth. God bless me. One day it will hit me to stop. Cheers, Im putting one in for you.
