小君：这饭上面是什么肉？
莉莎：是猪肉罐头的肉。夏威夷比世界上其它民族要吃掉更多罐头猪肉。
小君：嗯，味道尝起来怪怪的。我比较喜欢羽毛的大麻种子素猪肉。
莉莎：我们一天要吃掉一万一千罐这种罐头呢。来，尝尝我的芋泥。
小君：好恶心喔。有点像粥，不过很恶滥。
莉莎：是啦，这味道是需要去习惯。但是，这是岛上的主食。
小君：外面那些拿牌子的人在干嘛？
莉莎：我想他们应该是夏威夷独立运动份子。我们吃完饭后出去看看吧

A few days later; in a restaurant in Hilo on the Big Island
Jun: What is this meat on the rice?
Lisa: It’s spam. Hawaiians eat more spam than any other people in the world!
Jun: Well, it tastes weird. I liked Feather’s hemp meat better.
Lisa: We eat eleven thousand cans of this stuff a day! Here, try some of my poi.
Jun: Gross. Kind of like congee but nasty.
Lisa: It’s an acquired taste, yes. But it’s a staple of the islands.
Jun: What are those people outside carrying signs about?
Lisa: I think they’re Hawaiian independence activists. Let’s look when we’re done eating.
