Deveride is an organic substance which some Bajorans chew for pleasure, as Humans used to chew tobacco, gum, and betel nuts. After mixing with enzymes in the mouth, deveride dissolves in the air after two hours.

In 2370, deveride was used to adhere a sarium krellide bomb to one of the arches at the Okana Shipyards. (DS9 novel: Antimatter)
