For me (a misplaced Hawaiian), this collection was fun to peruse. Spam musubi in Hawaii is a Hawaiian/Japanese lunch
time favorite: white sushi rice, fried spam with a little soy sauce--wrapped in sushi nori (the black seaweed). It
comes in a lunch-sized portion. It differs from sushi in that the rice is not flavored. I made some myself this weekend
to share with some Hawaiian girls who are here in Florida going to college.

The fair was far more crowded than in prior years
