I dipped for years and just quit 2 months ago. You get just as much as you would from a cigarette. Dip is just as addictive as cigarettes and just as bad for you. When they say that it is an alternative to cigarettes they don't mean it's a safe alternative. It's kind of like "A sharp stick in the eye is an alternative to one in your ear." Neither are desirable or good for you.
First of all congrats on quitting! It is way harder to stop dipping than it is to stop smoking because there is way more nicotine in dip than in cigarettes. Cigs burn and dip is put in your mouth. They say that there is 9mg of nicotine in cigs and 8mg of that it burnt and 1 mg is actually ingested. But in dip its completely different because it doesn't burn and it isn't inhaled, it goes through the blood stream. And it also depends on how big of a pinch it is also, a small pinch is probably equivalent to a cig before you burn it, the bigger the pinch the more nicotine.
