Pineapple a Hawaiian It Does Not

I never understood the whole pineapple = Hawaii link.  Yes yes, I have heard of Dole and it's pineapple fields, geesh I was born and raised in Hawaii.       That being said,  I do not know of one single person while growing up in Hawaii who put a pineapple on a burger and said that it tasted good.   I'm sorry but for me, pineapple does not equal to Hawaii.    Sigh.    I laughed everytime I saw an ad for the Teriyaki burger from Carl's Jr. (shown above) or the huge Maui Zaui pizza from Round Table.     I mean have you seen the commercial?    It's so lame.    I wonder if they show it in Hawaii.   It's so insulting.       

I'm not saying that adding a pineapple to a burger with teriyaki sauce or putting pineapple on pizza does not taste good (though I'm not saying it's delicious as well), all I'm saying is stop with the Hawaii association.   I mean there are other things Hawaii is noted for ... the weather, the beaches, the people, the seafood, fresh fruit and produce, etc ...      Marketing/advertising people, let's work on finding something else we can put on a burger or pizza ... how about poi?

Skip These Drinks

Have you seen this article on Yahoo?     It lists America's Unhealthiest Drinks.   Fortunately I don't drink any of these items, but holy cow on the nutritional information, or should I say lack of nutrition?     I am so amazed at how unhealthy drinks could be.    Did you ever have the Baskin Robbins Large Heath Shake?    If you did you'd better store those cravings for another.   Talk about a heart attack in a cup!
