So much memories as a child. My grandfather was a beautiful Hawaiian man and being with him as he pound the taro was a memorable event. My job was turn the water hose on and was rewarded dollops of fresh pa’i ai in my open waha! I can still hear the kani of the stone on the board. Our fresh poi supply ended with his passing , I was 12 years old but have the memories. Maika’i this Bruddah - poi should be on everybody’s table. I just pau eat canned sardines, onion, chili pepper water and poi!!! Winna!,

Our family had lo'i back in the early 70's in Haleiwa. We raised Kalo to make Haleiwa poi that was sold in local markets. We would eat and share the odds and ends of the unsold Kalo. Such memories. I'm 57 years old and we no longer have the home or lo'i. Our dad and Tutu got really ill so we sold our home and everything with it to move to Moloka'i. The weather there more primitive environment was much better for them. This is such a wonderful video! Mahalo nui!

My Dad was a farmer in Grenada 🇬🇩, he planted Taro (Dasheen) it is very tasty, my mom cooked dasheen, we ate it with cod fish, and cocoanut oil, very delish. The leaves we make a dish calloo with the leaves, cocoanut milk is added.

one of the few videos that showed the whole poi plant, not just the bulb 👍; does poi come in various colors (I thought it was all light purple where as here it was beige)(I know taro plant which poi comes from is soft lilac color)?
