I know withdrawal can suck, but millions of dollars of nicotine? That's crossing a line.
According to TMZ, Tucker Carlson has been robbed of the first shipment of his brand's newest nicotine pouches. This comes only hours after they announced a new line of products.
378,000 "tropical, high-impact flavor" tins of ALP lip pillows were heisted on March 4. They were picked up from a southern California logistics facility by a driver who presented false ID. ALP is offering a $100,000 reward for information on their missing product. I wonder if they'll throw in a pack or two?
Tucker Carlson launched his nicotine pouch company, ALP, after the parent company of Zyn, Philip Morris, told him to back off from calling the product a "male enhancer". He made this wild claim during an appearance on Theo Von's This Past Weekend podcast.
Tucker Carlson described Zyn as "closed-minded and humorless and douchey" following the debacle. After going on a public crusade against them, he launched his own "non-woke" brand.
After he turned his back on Zyn and made his own brand, Tucker Carlson made some less favorable claims about Zyn. He claimed in a post on X that most users were using the famous brand rectally.
The post reads, "Most ZYN users use it rectally... In a country of 350,000,000 people, like, there should be a pouch for your mouth. It shouldn't all be rectal use".

Tucker Carlson Can't Get Enough of His Nicotine Pouches
Tucker Carlson has been branded "Tucker CarlZyn" based on his love for (non-rectal) lip pillows, according to Men's Health.
He described his experience of nicotine addiction, "For the majority of my life, I smoked Camel regulars, but the problem with Camels for me was you almost couldn't smoke enough".
But he felt his problem was solved the moment he got his hands on snus, and he was addicted from the offset, "I love the taste, I love the convenience... I love the full nicotine saturation of it." "Am I addicted? Yeah, in the same sense I'm addicted to eating or breathing or sex", he added.
