Pseudo Dried Tobacco

[Stuart Dren]

I'm not in the nico game, so deferring to y'all.

What plant matter could pose as dried tobacco from a moderate distance? Would anything do, or are there some better choices?

I've been Googling images for comparison. Would anise work, or not quite?

Thanks for any and all input.

One dried leaf looks pretty much like another at a distance. Otherwise, the smell gives it away.

Tea is a fairly standard substitute, it was used to bulk out tobacco by PoWs furring ww2

I don't know why I thought of culinary herbs or spices before something as simple as tea. I'll probably go with that.
