I knew at a very young age that Hawaii was the right place for me, not just for the scenic nature, but for the cultural acceptance of SPAM.

Sheldon, You should do something like this with the more recently popular goteborg sausage. Us Kauai people grew up with it but seems like it's all over Hawaii now. Mahalos for representing cuz

So in Chicago we had a Hawaiian restaurant on my block and they served Musubi. I love it, I know it sounds a bit different for others but I think if you try it you'll love it.
