2004sep19. And by “Hawaiian Product Week” I mean to feature products I ran into in Hawaii. It doesn’t mean that these products were necessarily manufactured in Hawaii. But I don’t know why I’m mentioning this, that would just sort of slip by without comment otherwise, because what I’ve discovered is that by occasionally telling little white lies nobody’s really sure what’s real or fake on this website. But what really is the real truth, anyway? Is there an objective, real truth? I mean, yeah, getting punched in the face is an objective truth, I’m not falling for that one again. So let’s take a look at what we’re offering today.
Vindaloo!!! Wow. That is some crazy-ass coloring decision tree there. I think I’ve seen this stuff on the mainland occasionally. “Just add water” – but not the amount of water pictured. Because that’s way too much water.
I tried to find a Hawaiian pirate product for Talk Like A Pirate Day and this was the closest I could get. You can pretend that’s Captain Cook showing an islander how best to bean him on the head after they argue about the stolen boat (For Humorous Purposes Only. Writer Not Interested In Debating Captain Cook Death Theories. Fool Your Friends).
I’m not sure I would like the coco-nut pudding. I'll have to sleep on this one.
Just when you thought you had it all figured it out ... here comes Mendo maté yerba maté energy-like beverage and cultural drink of ancient origins. No, seriously, this is like an energy drink but they get all in-your-face with the regular sugary energy drinks on their website (Mendo Maté). It is a tea from Paraguay and I know nothing about it. It is a stimulant, so watch out, my friends. I am neither endorsing or unendorsing this concoction that brings with it its own legend, its own folklore, its own t-shirt series, its own traditional gourd.
