Previous Episode: Hawaiian Pizza
Next Episode: Tabasco Sauce

This season, as you know, is all about the journeys of some of the world’s most fascinating foods, and for each episode we release, we're hosting live listening sessions with content creators from around the world to give us more insight into the subject at hand.


Last week we listened to the season debut, which was about Hawaiian pizza, and we had the pleasure of talking to Elijah, a Native Hawaiian educator, content creator, and head of the

wellness organization Awakened Aloha, which he cofounded with his wife. Elijah gave us some amazing insight into several topics that we weren’t able to cover in our episode; such as the

little-known reason why Hawaiian-grown pineapples are tastier, and the complicated relationship with the pineapple cannery that many of his family members worked in for decades.


This episode is an abridged version of the discussion we held after listening to episode 1 (Hawaiian Pizza), so if you haven’t already, please go listen to that one before making your way to this one!
