What is Hawaiian food like?!


Question: What is Hawaiian food like?
Answers:

Modern cuisine of Hawaii is a fusion of many cuisines brought by multiethnic immigrants to the Hawaiian Islands, particularly of American, Chinese, Filipino, Japanese, Korean, Polynesian and Portuguese origins, including plant and animal food sources imported from around the world for agricultural use in Hawaii. Many local restaurants serve the ubiquitous plate lunch featuring the Asian staple, two scoops of rice, a simplified version of American macaroni salad (consisting of macaroni noodles and mayonnaise), and a variety of different toppings ranging from the hamburger patty, a fried egg, and gravy of a Loco Moco, Japanese style tonkatsu or the traditional lu'au favorite, kalua pig.

I like it, and polynesian food as well, though I havent had the pleasure of eating "true" hawaiian or polynesian food, the americanized stuff is pineapple, pork, fish, and coconut heavy and delicious, especially for luaus or summer parties. haupia is a delicious coconut pudding and a must have to accompany any food of this type

people are probably not going to agree at all. but i don't really like it. i find that it's lots of cuts of extremely fatty meat. and i personally don't like fat on my meat so i don't like it. i wonder if Hawaiian barbecue is just Americanized or anything like the real thing? check that out.
