When eating sweet paan, are you supposed to chew the betel leaf it is wrapped in?

Question

Ok, I gather it is chewed but are they also EATEN? I'm getting confused info with the nut. Are the leaves spit out or eaten once all chewed up?

Answer 1

Yes

Answer 2

oh yes that brings out the flavours of all the things inside.

Answer 3

Yes. The sweet pan should be chewed and eaten completely.

Answer 4

you are supposed to chew EVERYthing, and swallow everything, and relish every last morsel of it.

Answer 5

Yes, chew it slowly....very slowly.

Answer 6

Yes

The betel leaf has lots of medicinal values. It can be eaten without anything added to it too and it is the main component of any kind of paan. It is not a wrapper to be thrown off.

Happy paan chewing :-)

Yes to all. The betel leaf is the main thing.

You chew and eat all.
