Poi the Hawaiian staple faces decline from pest outbreak
George P. Cooke of Honolulu warns poi, the Hawaiian national dish, is endangered as a new insect attacks taro roots. He notes poi's central role in native and foreign diets, its traditional preparation by boiling or drying into flour, and the three grades of readiness. The insect damage reduces supply, pushing natives to mix flour with poi, altering flavor and texture. Americans in camps also eat poi by hand, mirroring native customs.
