Pouches

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Pouches is the word used to describe prominent (puffy) cheeks. Pouches usually occur on young children and females, especially those with a high calorie diet. Sometimes, men can have pouches, but this is only usually in men who consume large amounts of fatty foods and alcohol.

According to youth culture, the word pouches derives from the household pet, the hamster, who stores its food in its pouches on its cheeks.
