I appreciate that you centered Native Hawaiians in this! As much as Hawaii relies on tourism, at this point overtourism (and the military - google Red Hill water) is causing a water crisis and incredible harm to the ecosystems. Native Hawaiians have actually had restrictions put on their water use so that the tourists can have the water. Many Native Hawaiians are asking people to stop traveling there, so please travel mindfully and responsibly and help to slow down tourism so the environment has a chance to recover and stay thriving for future generations to appreciate. Thanks Max for passing along important historical context in a respectful way!

As a Hawaiian who now lives in Connecticut and makes kalua pig in my oven, this was great. I wasn't scared of watching your episode because I know how thoroughly you research everything and how respectful you are. Thank you.

A note on Taro leaf - there are little ā€œspinesā€ on it, so it WILL lead to indigestion if eaten raw. When cooking with taro leaves, always make sure to steam or otherwise cook it before consuming.

Family vacation in grade school included a Hawaiian luau. The tour guide gave a warning not to eat more than 2 Haupia. Haupia is a dessert based on coconut milk. Ont the way back the tour guide informed us, "The coconut milk in the Haupia is a natural laxative. If you had more than 2, pinch your cheeks, it's a 30 minute drive back to the hotel." I did get to see the unearthing of the kalua pork. It was so tender that the chickenwire basket it was laid in was given a shake over a tray and instant shredded pork.

Hi Max! Just a quick comment on the Hawaiian language: it didn't "lose" the T sound due to writing, but among dialects in Hawaiian the T existed in a state of "free variation" with K; the sounds were interchangeable. Ultimately, both sounds comes from the T sound of an earlier language which would eventually become Hawaiian, Marquesan, Māori, and Rapa Nui. Early colonial attempts to write Hawaiian tended to favor the T, but later the K became standard (but the T is now common in, for example, Niihau dialect).

Max, it'd be super cool if you could do some Native American dishes and history. We're never really taught anything in depth about their history prior to European and American destruction of their culture. So many cultures to choose from, you could do a small series

I'm sure many of us who live in Hawaii appreciate you taking the time to correctly pronounce Hawaiian words.

If there's one thing I've learned about luaus over the years, it is this: Never put the mayor's purple shorts into the communal soup. Well, OK, do it once for the laughs.

If youā€™re looking for more dishes that have ties to hawaiian history, Dole pineapples are a really interesting microcosm on colonialism. Dole (the guy) helps overthrow the kingdom so that his plantation can ship more stuff to the US, and their advertisements about pineapple on pork to make ā€œhome luausā€ inspires a canadian guy to make hawaiian pizza. Thereā€™s other dishes and a ton more history from the plantation cannery, but those are two of the highlights to me.

I grew up in Hawaiā€™i. Iā€™m so gratified that you took the time to learn proper pronunciation of Hawaiā€™ian words. Mahalo.

I lived on a military base on Oahu, Hawaii back when I was a kid and it was pretty magical. I attended grades 1 & 2 there and I remember, every year, they would roast a whole pig in the courtyard and you could smell it cooking ALL DAY AND IT WAS SO FANTASTIC X.x

Hey Max! As a longtime fan Iā€™m so excited to see something I grew up with on the channel! Your pronunciation of Hawaiian isnā€™t bad for someone unfamiliar with it but one small note; ā€œpuaŹ»aā€ has that glottal stop in it between the aā€™s so thereā€™s another syllable in there. I hope you enjoyed your stay! šŸ¤™šŸ½

As a Native Hawaiian myself, this video was wonderful! Well researched and well spoken. Mahalo nui loa.

Thank you for including the "accessible version" of this dish for those of us without the option of a yard to BBQ an entire pig or a smoker!! After a co-worker from Hawaii introduced me to Kalua Pork years ago - it's been one of my favorite recipes. I do a crockpot version and I was really happy to see how similar Ippy's pot simmered version is, so I felt moderately authentic. šŸ˜

The history of Hawaii is fascinating, so of course the culinary history is fascinating as well.

Here in New Zealand there was, and still is too a degree, the sense of tapu/noa (sacred/profane). Te Rauparaha would never have survived if his enemies didn't believe that someone as tapu as he was would hide in a pit in the ground under the genitals of a woman (noa). The Haka by the All Blacks, Ka Mate, tells that story. Here, at a hangi, food is cooked in an umu. However, while in most of the country this is a pit in the ground similar to the Hawaiian imu, in Rotorua and other geothermal areas, Māori made use of that power to cook their food - and still do in Whakarewarewa. Hotels in the Rotorua region also use this traditional method of cooking a few times a week for tourists, and similar to the lu'au, used to have a stereotypical "Maori concert party" entertain guests. However since the 1980s they've moved away from that to a kapa haka group performance, that also includes Māori history from the Great Migration and settlement of Aotearoa, to traditional tales, but also more recent history around colonisation and how that affected Māori, particularly with land confiscation. You should visit. You'd enjoy the history (and being able to relax and sit back in a pool at the Polynesian Spa).

I loved how accurate and respectful this video was as a local. I even live in Kailua where the Kapu was broken, so I felt the hometown pride when you mentioned us. I would really love if you made a video about local Hawaiian food (as opposed to traditional). In the 1800s people immigrated from Portugal, China, Japan, and the Philippines and created this amazing fusion cuisine with what ingredients were available here. Check out malasadas, loco moco, spam musubi, poke, and the plate lunch

We lived on Oahu for a few years when my husband was stationed there. After we left, I missed being able to grab pints of premade Kalua pork from the grocery store so learned to make my own in a crockpot. It was similar to Chef Ippyā€™s simmered version but mine just covers the pork butt in a good amount of salt, adds some liquid smoke and then you cook it on low in the crockpot for 16 hours. It is sooo very good and gives us a taste of the islands every time we make it!
