Betel Nut
$42.95 ($42.95-$49.00 choose a size)
A graceful, tropical palm also commonly called Areca nut, this is not a true nut but a palm seed. Its use carries dangers, however, see Warning below. Used in many Asian and Pacific cultures, the seed is separated from the outer layer of the fruit and may be used fresh, dried, boiled, baked, roasted or cured.they are chewed in a similar way to chewing tobacco, producing a mildly euphoric and stimulating effect, and helping reduce tension. Betel nuts and betel quids are generally chewed for their psychoactive properties that help reduce tension, produce a feeling of well being and facilitate social interactions and strengthen social ties. Around 10 to 20% of the world's population chews betel nut in some form. This makes it the 4th most widely-used psychoactive substance,after nicotine, alcohol and caffeine. WARNING: The use of this plant, though, is hazardous and is classed as a Group 1 carcinogen by the International Agency for Research on Cancer. Extreme caution should be exercised. If you ever have to remove them, the heart is also edible and quite palatable.
