Aloha! I ate a pig.

Tell me, have you ever eaten a pig that has been cooked in the ground for 15 hours? Have you ever had raw salmon salad, cured by salt and lime? Have you ever seen so many people that you thought you would be able to recognize, but actually had no idea who most people were? If not, you've never been a Hawaiian or met a Gomes.

We do that in New Zealand too (though, we call it a "Hāngi" instead). It's a pretty amazing process to be part of :)

I've never done any of those things, but I'd really really like to...

John cooked a turkey in the ground one year for Thanksgiving. After unearthing and unwrapping it was basically reduced to a poof of charred remains. He was a little over zealous.

It WAS quite interesting!

M- JOHN. Hilarious!
