          Those are really small numbers.

          622/1,000,000 vegans

          If everyone went to a vegan restaurant at the same time there would be 52,631.6 people there.

          Damn. This doesn’t match my experience in Hawaii at all. My in-laws live there, and everytime I visit I sustain my life with fruit and Avacados. I’d kill for some plant based SPAM.

            I thought they were big on pork, much like other pacific island nations. But also with the history of Asian immigrants and agriculture, I would think soy and soy based products would also be readily available.

      Real talk though. My vegetarian wife struggled to find good vegetarian meals in Oahu that were Hawaiian themed. Not that they didn’t exist. Just that they were lacking compared to most major cities in America.

      Me as a BBQ eater though… Gimme dat pork butt.

      TIL that Hawaii is a country…

      And don’t they rely on fishing? They have a severe lack of farm land…
