food!!👅

 In Hawaii they have a different culture and therefore, a different food variety.

 So far we have tried taro root, star fruit, kim chee, local oranges, papaya, passion fruit and dragon fruit. Taro root is like a potato but is purple on the inside and you can make them into poi if you mash them. Star fruit is a sour sweet fruit that looks like an extended star. kim chee is pickled cabbage; papaya is like a mango. Passion fruit is like a cocoanut with yummy seeds that are sour and you eat them and dragon fruit  insides with black seeds.

Yum!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We have tried 3 types of fish: Marlin, ahi, and mahi mahi. We have been eating these fish plain and in sushi! Marlin is a big sword fish that is not only good for eating in sushi and plain but can also stab things( they taste like nothing so Kayley will eat them)! Ahi is a yummy fish that is a tuna and is good in sushi and sashimi. Mahi mahi is also yummy tuna that you can eat in tuna and it has a cool name.

  

At luaus( a party) they traditionally serve on the floor on mats and eat with their hands. At the luaus they usually eat poi, Kailua pig, poke, lomi salmon, opihi and  haupia. Poke is a raw salad served as a apatizer.opihi is a sea small known as cellana. Haupia is a Hawaiian coconut desert that is pudding but seems like gelatin. 

Before we go back to the main land I hope to try poi, more fruit and a bunch of deserts!if you come to Hawaii look for poi and eat it( its not crazzy purple minion poo.
