I don't know about the cannibals strictly being on Maui.........There has been a huge population decline on Oahu as of late,,, primarily out Kailua side,, just a coincidence??????? And, has been mentioned before, check Foodland, Star Market, Safeway, hardly a bottle of A1 Steaksauce to be found,,,,,,,, is that just something that makes you think???? Or, perhaps,,,,,,, something else?? Anyways, I arrived on Maui just about 33 years ago, almost to the day, and stayed. There was something that made me think, "I'm home", and I was.. If you know the Islands are for you, I think you'll know it fairly soon after your arrival, as far as all the others who come here for a year or two, and then move on, they still have some searching to do, and best to all of them.. Now, back to the rampant cannibalism,,,,,,and, if you want some PureBred Maui Stray Cats, feel free to e-mail.................

Aloha

Steaksauce on LongPig? Eewe! Must be a Maui thing! Maybe a bit of shoyu but not steaksauce! That's like red wine with fish, it's just not proper. Hmm, well, depending on the fish maybe a light red would do for some of the darker fish....

So how did you prepare yourself to move to Maui? (Dare we ask if it was to bring a case of steaksauce? Ha! ) I guess, if the OP really wants to prepare to move to Hawaii they could bring their favorite condiments but there are probably better ways to prepare. A case of okolehau, perhaps and completely forget the condiments?

Hmm, perhaps as part of preparing to move to Hawaii the Original Poster could read up a bit about Hawaiian History and find out that our references to cannibalism have to do with Hawaiians respectfully preparing Capt. Cook's bones after he was killed in a cultural misunderstanding. The bones were returned to his people the same as if he has been a respected Hawaiian person so is it the Hawaiians fault if the Europeans are too culturally narrow minded to know respectful behavior?

I've heard that incident described in many ways, but that tops them all!
