About This Episode:
Food is a drug, but you know what else is a drug? Drugs! And the drug I'm taking today is known as the Betel Nut (槟榔) or Bīnláng. This little devil gives you the same jolt as 5 cups of coffee. Yeah, careful if you have a weak hear gramma. So what's the only down side to this amazing, energy giving drug, only that it can give you cancer, otherwise, all good!!

I’m not sponsored. I’m not rich. I’m just some guy who wanted to make the type of travel videos that I would want to see. This show is completely self-funded so thanks for patiently watching that five second advertisement (and read below how you can support this channel).
I am a video director by trade. Each time I travel to a new country I bring a cameraman with me, usually a friend, to shoot as many episodes as possible in a short amount of time (usually a week). The rest of the time I’m working as a video director/videographer in Vietnam and editing the crap out of these videos.
Much love and remember, Don't Think, Just Chew.

I'm a huge fan of trying different, interesting and strange foods in each country. My show is from a Western point of view, but more importantly MY point of view, but is not meant to offend any person or culture.
My grandma used to chew on betel nuts and fresh tobacco leaves everyday. Lot of spitting, she finally stopped in 70s when she developed a cancer in lower right jaw. Doctors took most of her lower jaw and she lived 30 more years of her life. She died at the age of 94 natural death.
Jane Dudynsky for us we chew betel nuts with that minty tasting leaf and that white powder that bur ns when put directly on tounge. Spits red juice.
your math doesn't add up 😏😏
Kazuya samartino he refereeing to 1970's i guess
Wait do you mean 1970s or was she in her 70s because 70+30=100
Alex Tiznado that’s pretty racist
I LOST IT WHEN HE SAID "DEEZ NUTZ" xD
with a straight face xD
I was searching for this comment
I searched also. Giggity giggity
not at 4:55 ? lol
got eem
I fucking love how he just appears from behind random places.
Harry Shimens it's my favourite thing
Funniest shit ever!
When chewed with mustard (daka in Pidgin language) and lime (kambang in Pidgin language), it will turn red. It's also gives a very strong smell.
How would you describe the smell? I always thought tobacco smelled of prunes.
Does it change the effects?
Do you spit or or swallow the nut?
I bet it smells disgusting
We chew bettleneut differently in Papua New Guinea, and with mustard and lime. Much better and way more effective. U should try visiting. 👍 by the way, cool content!
just found out about your content. your actually really funny so i subbedXD
Well thanks bro. How'd you find me?
Best Ever Food Review Show well about 2 years ago I ate this worm thing in Busan, korea and I was looking for what it was and I eventually found out it's called gaebul or penis fish and I saw your video on it and started dying while binging all your other videos XD But yeah your channel is hilarious, you should make videos in Japan if you haven't already!(I'm from there)
Ah, cool! Thanks for letting me know. I'd love to go to Japan. Hopefully in the next year. :)
Cookeis are good xD
I saw a comment of u saying sumthing about being called daddy lol
Darn, you deserve your own tv show mate! Binge watching!
Aw shucks. Thanks dude.
No worries! Seriously speaking your presentation, content, editing and overall the final product you are delivering is just amazing! Cheers mate.
TV ruin people. He's better than that. He's best here.
Riaz Uddin Same here. 😂
It's 3:30am and I'm still watching...tonight I watched the Madagascar series, Vietnam, chicken somewhere in Thailand, Bangkok insects, the Instagram Q&A, and now Taiwan as I live here 13 years, a foreign food lover in Asia also. And fried stinky tofu is awesome!
"There is a problem bigger than cancer, inequality." I laughed for 5 minutes straight😂
The most ridiculous thing I’ve heard in a while 😂
Not really. There is a reason people take these drugs despite the risks because they need the stimulant to work and go on with their life day to day without getting depressed, they take drugs that are relaxants that calm them, makes them feel numb to forget about their anxities and problems. They're not getting these from their normal life means they have to substitute it with drugs. Fixing inequality improves their living standards means they don't have to rely on these drugs.
Shows how little you know about poverty, exploitation, and hunger. You watch a show about third world countries eating exotic foods to combat hunger and starvation on youtube yet laugh at inequality. Allah.
Hi, I'm RUclips! Amazing video, wait.... DEMONETIZED. 3:06
The way he just pops out from any corner!!! Priceless! Really good content! Keep it up!
Your humor is unreal.. Subbed
Trust me. Iwatch alot of food reviews shows on youtube. And i SWEAR you have the most funniest most interesting food review show ever 😂😂 kp up the great work brother
In our country and also in India, they have betel nuts in another way. They have them with a kind of leaf called Betel Leaves(Paan in our language). They use the Paan as a sort of base for the Betel Nuts. They also have them dried but you can have them fresh too. They chop them to tiny pieces so it's easier to chew. They put a smear of a paste called Chun which is made from Lime and Shell powder mixed with water. They put Tobacco and call them zarda. They roll them up together and chew on it. There are varieties of Paan. Sometimes they put spices. Sometimes they put sweet garnish and we call is sweet Paan. Sometimes they use different types of flavour and put a flammable edible gel and lit it on fire. They put the the lit Paan in mouth and we call it Fire Paan.
Why this don't work on me, Is it because I take depression medication?
tobacco is optional. A lot of people do not eat tobacco, so instead they simply have the chuna with the supari and the paan or a sweet pan which has also gulcan and flavored supari. A lot of people also simply chew on betel nut pieces (no tobacco)
The kattha or brown paste smeared on pan has alkaloids which are harmful for cheek walls...... Or else just a simple pan leaf with elaichi and gulkand is not harmful rather considered a digestive.... People in assam use fermented supari or tambul in paan to keep themselves warm in winter. A small chip of tambul is enough to keep you warm a bigger piece will make you sweat in winter, heart will pound, breath rate increases...
"how do you know you don't like the drugs if you never try the drugs...?"
Well, I mean he makes a valid point!
First time I saw one of your videos, I thought you were kinda corny but you made me chuckle. Its hilarious how you nonchalantly pop out from behind random objects. Sub!
I'm completely corny. Cheers!
I discovered this channel maybe 3-4 years ago. I’ve never seen his older videos, but wow has his channel changed a whole lot since the beginning! Keep grinding !
howd you find the hot blond in the back alley? lol
She assisted us in Taiwan. She grew up there.
ChroniclesofAB ，
well she's hot!😅
Lol that's what you would expect a pump to say lol. He didn't find her he brought her.
@@lawrencejohnlim5455 absolutely
If you use sodium bicarbonate instead of slaked lime (caustic soda) then you will not get mouth sores or potential oral cancer. Slaked lime burns your mouth pretty bad.
@@Tofififofu no idea but i chew mine with tobacco
It is more than just a food channel. It is informative and entertaining. Keep it up.
You should have tried betel nut chewing in the Philippines, particularly in the Cordilleras. We use dried matured nuts.
I've been binge watching your show and this series is my favorite. Your awkwardness is so funny and hot. I love the weird starts and dad jokes. Soooo cute!
in Sri Lanka we have a similar one. it contains beetle leaves , tobacco , nutmeg , believe it or not , a bit of lime (material) . its called "bulath vita" .
same kick. same culture
I just discovered your channel through Food Ranger and bench watching your videos..you are very funny. My wife and I suggest you also show more food close up...
sean chuor thanks for the suggestion. My recent videos show a lot more close ups. Always trying to improve the quality. Cheers!
In the Islands a lot of people chew betel nut. I started chewing it when i was like 8 till now in my 20s. We chew the meat inside the adult fruits, unlike the one’s chewed in Taiwan, I love it! 😍😊
.in the northern part of the philippines specially Cordillera?they have their own version of that..i swear, that if u swallow some saliva from chewing it? and it can make you feel like you wanna go to the CR and poop, vomit,head ache, and sometimes you feel like you wanna sleep.
Holy Cow kailian
Depende rin yan sa tao paps
We igorots call it momma
Instructions unclear. Beetle nut stuck in butt, nose, ears. Send help
thatoldserpent You bought a beetle inside a nut, Not a nut surrounded with husk like coconuts
@@jacktailssonplays4833 Intructions unclear. Bettle nut stuck in Lung, Liver, PP, and Ears. Send Help
Best Food Ever.. in Vietnam, older women chew betel nut with lime paste and a leave called trầu (la trầu) and tobacco. The combination of trầu leave and lime paste and betel nut makes a red color then they get the tobacco to clean the teeth. After they chew for a few minutes, then they spit out a red spit. Gross and weird, but most senior citizen women do this and it becomes a custom. When I was younger I tried it, messed around with my grandma's kit. It made my head spinned, like drunk. My grandma yelled at my. Hahaha😂😅😂 LOL
Tien Ngo yep this is how they do it in Papa New Guinea, the ground was painted in red spit
Same in Pakistan and in out country it is called patti wala pan. And also come in different flavours like zao raja rani, rani, raj etc
Same here in our state in Manipur India leaf,bettle nut,lime paste tobacco,LIG,FERMENTED ALCOHOL BETTLE nut and a bit fry coconut great taste...Women eat a lot here to after a meal
thats cool i just hate how it supposedly develops mouth cancer
Great shows !!!
You deserve more views and subscribers !
I used betel quid to combat my smoking addiction and have used it as a replacement for nicotine which is good for my lungs.
The bad side is that, i can't live without chewing betel nut for every 5 minutes.
Another bad side is that i am experimenting on spices to add on my quid to find out the best flavor it can provide and here are some of my combinations.
1. Betel nut ( matured betel nut which is brownish in color, typically bought in the Cordilleras).
2. Betel leaf ( not the dark green ones but those yellow green or yellow ones called "Dulawen" but you can use "Hinga")
3. Lime powder ( any types )
4. Clove sticks ( add one after spitting the first juice of the three combinations )
5. Cardamom
6. Tobacco ( La reyna mascadas )
It's just as bad as carcinogenic as tobacco.
I had to make a comment, because I eat betel but everyday... Hi everyone, I'm from Northeast India. Our version of betel nut is completely different. We consume it only after the nut is fully matured...with betel leaf and a little lime. Some good quality betel nuts actually have a little sweet taste.
Shannon hey man, I'm from Delhi, you guys have paan there too?
Wow, I am Taiwanese and I've never had betel nuts. When I was a kid, people would tell me that it's terrible for your throat and only cab/truck drivers eat them. Definitely have to try them next time.
xzxarchangelxzx haha me too but it causes cancer
Artsy Poodle only if you do it daily.
Hilarious video! 😂 In Bangladesh it’s called paan, everything is the same (we call it Paan) and the only difference is the betel nut is dried (Shupari). It was consumed mostly by women but men have caught up to about 40/60 men to women having this.
I've been binge watching your videos sunny. Hope your davao vlog comes out soon
So many double entendres.
The best parts were the cockroach betelnut addict and stumping the women with the oral cancer equality question.
They have the rare ligma chinese nuts
X. Y. They aren't Chinese they were originally sugondese and were imported to china
Parascosm this went over your head apparently
Esau Pyramid sugondese nuts lmao
Parascosm 😭😭😭😭
@@montylemon9445
And then it was also imported to SawCon for people to chew on.
I've been a coke, heroin, and alcohol addict for 20 years. I am currently trying Betel to slowly ease my way off, and eventually I will go to nicotine as smoke rather than lip tobacco. After this, I plan to go on prescription drugs that help with withdrawal and getting sober. Betel is super useful if you dont abuse it. Just as nicotine is useful for addicts if they don't abuse it in rehab. Ive been to rehab, and cigarettes are always available. Most people to into rehab and come out as nicotine addicts in the United States. Cigarettes are allowed in rehab and are abused. You basically substitute one addiction for another. Rehab centers in America need to change. Anyways, I've relayed my process, and I plan to go through with it. I have a fiance(wife in 2 months) and 2 kids already. I am already planning to and for sure going to ween off drugs. Do not use betel unless you know about it and have researched it. It is useful in going sober, but thsts about it. Other than that, its a highly addictive substance more so than cocain. Stay away from it unless you really need it to get on the sober path.
Duuuude I've been binge watching ALL of your videos!
*ishouldbestudyingbutnope* 😂
so much of that in Guam. funny video Sonny
robertjos word. I'm in Guam rn. Everyone has this shit lmao
robertjos thank you guam pride
Also in Papua New Guinea, Solomon Islands, Vanuatu, Indonesia, some parts of the Philippines. We love it here in PNG.
Okay dude that man you met LOL like is he stuck in the 1980s?
Best RUclips videos ever I just get high chill back and watch them all day
I stumbled upon this channel by accident and I'm not regretting it at all. New sub for you!
Planning to start a best ever weed review show after watching this :-)
“I had the whole tip in my mouth” looks at camera 😂😂😂
Him slowly walking out of the bush sold me. 😂😂😂 Subscribed!
Is it just me, when I chew betel nuts it makes me feel relaxed. The best feeling.
Im so serious then he said these nutz XD i almost spit my drink
The guy in the BLUE hat is pretty cool 🤘
I love your videos , can't stop smiling and laughing the whole time I watching.
Just found your channel and I love how you just try out stuff without being nitpicky! Subscribe! -your new Asian subscriber.
The Tropical Teacup yes. Nitpicking is not good. from where in Asia?
The first hit is always free
When I lived in Pakistan, it was given to me as an after dinner digestive aide. Yea, sure was! It was nasty, I thought! But people use it but how you can do it in public I can not imagine. Have fun, but b careful!!
we have different kind of chewing beetle nuts here in Ifugao, Philippinees where the Banaue rice terraces is...
dude, this is funny af! subbing!
"I had the whole tip in my mouth" 😂😂😂😂
In India we call it Tamul pan lol n in mokokchung Nagaland women chew like hell lol
Hey sunny , love your show ..nowadays I'm a fan of you. I think you have done Indian version of betel nuts chewing which has lot more of flavour and masala. Moreover if you move to North Eastern part of India they chew raw betel nuts which really make you high . But small correction on this video I don't think chewing betel nuts don't cause the oral cancer actually it's the tobacco they add in it.
Honestly man please do more videos you’re entertaining, you’re like a teacher and inspiration
My grandma is taiwanese she used to eat betel nut
was that the only nut she ate fam
was that the only nut she ate fam
duuude.. ure so funny
Thanks dude.
“the solutions, is deez nuts” I LOST IT THERE
another great video!!!! like!!!! also, why are people dislike your videos? do they hate kitten too?
Holy shit I thought the title was “how to beat nuts”
After watching the series for a 2nd time I just noticed that this episode probably gave you guys a huge strike. What Sunny says towards the end of the episode is probably ban worthy
try to visit northern part of the philippines specifically baguio city. they have different ingridients of betel nut
Sonny Side, my paternal & maternal grandparents were chewing these several times a day. They were from Vietnam.
0:26 Deez Nuts
DONT DO DRUGS KIDS! It’s not worth it!
I hate to advocate for drugs, alcohol and madness, but it worked for me.
Try eatting betal nuts Indian style ,in India we call it paan (I am from northeast India, Manipur here I think Women eat more) In India we peel the areca nut and eat the seed which is inside we can eat the nut after dipping in alcohol and we add flavour like sweets like cherry ,gold silver paper eatable, dried grapes etc you can also add tobacco .
First time I seen your videos.....instantly subbed
Todd is like that friend that my mom didn't like me hanging out with.
Next episode: Todd and Sunny go to Pleasure Island to get turned into donkeys. 😳🐴🚬🍻
"Methy"
I'm Bangladeshi and these things are extremely popular and an important part of our culture. it's called Paan and people are addicted to it like you can be addicted to cigarettes. Regular avid chewers don't use so much spices. It's plain betel leaf, betel nut, tobacco and lime stone paste. My mom has to have at least 6-7 does in a day otherwise she can't function. I chew them occasionally when I feel like it.
I'm from Assam India ❤
Great video!!! 👏👏👏 "DONT SPIT THE NUT OUT" 😂 Im in Taiwan rn! In Ximen station.. Where do I get this stuff?! And where is the shrimp farm buffet?!
Just pay her a dollar bum
This guy is too american.
Everything about him is american.
I'm from Taiwan, and Betel Nuts has always been asociate with "bad", like only bad people or delinquent will eat them, chewing Betel Nuts is pretty much like smoking in Taiwan
like you and loved all your videos....
so excited to see your videos...
The solution is
DEEZ NUTS
Tips for real betel nut chewing. Chew the nut with lime and musted and it will give you the color blood red and not orange, and the golden rule is not to spit it out. Don't forget to stay hydrated after chewing betel nut. Good luck 👍 🔥🇵🇬
“I was behind there”. Terrific, terrific.
Love this channel 😎👍
We get that in India too. But spitting that around my city can get you in trouble.........
my thought exactly...
And shitting around the city doesn’t
No because white tourists love third world country poop
What is it called in india?
Dank Weeaboo 420 that's hilarious so spitting is worst the taking a dump in streets of India.
I am eating it while watching this video by coincidence
Todd looks messsssed up in the videos he's been in 😂 I wanna hang with you guys lmao
Love your show, take care sir.
In my country Papua New Guinea. We call Betelnut the green gold or buai. Because people make a living out of it also. And Everyone chews it both man and women and also children. But we actully grow very big ones. We chew it with mustard with icy is also called daka. And also with lime a white powder made from dry white corals. Then the brown betelnut turns red.The lime is also called kambang. And it is all in Papua New Guinea. 🇵🇬
In south eastern part of Asia they serve betelnut with the leaves, lime and tobacco on a tray during social gathering amongst the elders. I used to chew betelnut for fun when I was a kid but none of the rest because the stains in their mouths looked discusting and I don't want that in mine. Found out later in life that the whole thing can cause health issues so I just stayed away ever since. But I still chew the nuts from time to time.
As a confirmed psychonaut and all-around drug enthusiast, I'm really curious about this plant.
hee! you're funny and very informative! you have another subscriber!
Come to India we have many flavors of beetle nut and its awesome its slightly cns stimulant. In India we call it paan
Wow. It so funny that i learned about this just now. I Suriname we eet this as a fruit..and the nut we sometime dry and brake the but and eat it...no wonder we were so hot wired...active my mom thought we suffered from ADHD. (.LOL) thank you for sharing this video very informative. I will go collect some nuts to use..safes me money buying coffee to stay up🤣🤣
Come to India, you can get a variety of beatle nuts "pan"(flavour)
have you ever been to India. You would love the food here and we have an amazing version of the beetlenut ;)
You definitely earned my sub man
The sexual innuendos had me cracking up. I think we all need to see more of this drunkisode.
I imagine the effect is similar to downing a cup of coffee and chewing up a large pinch of Red Man or similar chaw, maybe even plug tobacco. The sweaty/light-headed feeling
I wish you had videos every day your videos are so funny.
“Don’t spit the nut out!” 🤦🏾♂️ Bruh. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Maaaaan good ol’ times.. but guess what, you are still good and i still love to watch you bro.
Pure chuckles. Btw, anyone ever tell you that you look like JJ Watt?
