Supari is India’s favourite indigenous mouth-freshener. We eat plain supari, sugandhi supari, chikni supari and paan supari among many others. But supari or arecanut has been a part of all South-East Asian lifestyles for centuries. Often called betelnut because it is consumed with paan, supari has found its way from our diet into our culture and lifestyle.Though supari is common all over the region, no nation loves supari as much as we Indians do.
