1. like smoking addictive
Want to correct, not Hainan people like to eat betel nut, Hunan people also like to eat betel nut, I used to college those Hunan students is very much in love with food, often in class are chewing with a few betel nut, anyway, it is like chewing gum as desperately chewing.
The kind of chewing pleasure, like people smoking is a kind of addiction, plus betel nut generally have a very peculiar flavor, Hainan betel nut is put on some spices. Addicted to something is not quit, as we all know that smoking is harmful to health, drug abuse harms people and themselves, can be addicted to bring the kind of pleasure and can not eat to bring the kind of pain, should be the biggest reason.
2. Betel nut in Hainan status is very high
Betel nut history in Hainan is also a long history, it is said that a long time ago, betel nut is a kind of hospitality, like taking tobacco and wine guests, but also will be used to give gifts to friends. In such a big environment, then betel nut will be in a very normal appearance in Hainan people's lives, basically let you nowhere to escape.
You may often receive so some gifts, and you do not use to eat, you use what? Is it to spoil other people's hearts, take it and throw it away? Or refuse to accept the feelings of others? This is not in line with the normal exchange of gifts ah!
3. Hainan's local characteristics
Everywhere people will have their own local characteristics, like the Northeast people like to get high, Sichuan people like to drink tea, the same reason, and Hainan people like to eat betel nut, has long been one of their local characteristics, passed down from generation to generation, simply can not be changed. Completely is a local taste habits, is used to eating, used to doing this thing, there is no reason to so like.
