    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.
    小君:這飯上面是什么肉?
    莉莎:是豬肉罐頭的肉。夏威夷比世界上其它民族要吃掉更多罐頭豬肉。
    小君:嗯,味道嘗起來怪怪的。我比較喜歡羽毛的大麻種子素豬肉。
    莉莎:我們一天要吃掉一萬一千罐這種罐頭呢。來,嘗嘗我的芋泥。
    小君:好惡心喔。有點像粥,不過很惡濫。
    莉莎:是啦,這味道是需要去習(xí)慣。但是,這是島上的主食。
    小君:外面那些拿牌子的人在干嘛?
    莉莎:我想他們應(yīng)該是夏威夷獨立運動份子。我們吃完飯后出去看看吧。
