Just googled it, and apparently this is about chewing road tar. Never heard of it.

Yeah, same just now! Apologies James, I assumed that “tar” was a regional variant on chaw or tobacco, my bad!I’ll try anything once, so*heads out to the lonely roads*

I've chewed pine tar. It's not pleasant. If you've drank pine needle tea, you know the flavor.

The Czechs have a pine needle liqueur, thought it was borovička but apparently that's juniper berries, anyway I liked it but all of my friends thought it was horrible.

yeah, tried a pine tar liqueur as an after-dinner refreshment in Finland, although the server was like "i'm not sure what you would call it, maybe the word is... tar?"which without the "pine" part did lead us to similar visions of blacktop repair, roofing goo, etc. it didn't taste great to my palette, but it was interesting cause i never really ingest anything piney in that way.

My mom, born in the 30's, remembers kids chewing tar.
My sister and I, born in the 60's, thought that was weird. Then again, the kids in our neighborhood liked to run around in the cloud behind the bug spray truck.
