Mostly elderly likes them, its not just in cambodia that use these things, but in India, thailand, i think vietnam too, and Laos. Even the west have something like this too. I think it make your teeth strong and you wont get cavity even though it stain your teeth.

Those are Areca nuts. It is very astringent I think. Not chewed for the flavor, but the affects it gives, I think something like nicotine.
