I'm sorry to be that guy, but in the prologue to the book, theres a whole section titled "Concerning Pipe-weed", where Tolkien talks about how the plant spread around middle-earth, and specifically mentions it's a type of tobacco.
I beg to differ.
(Yes this is an example of life imitating art, but as the other person said, isn't it so much more fun to pretend?)
hahah, of course :)
