I just ordered a fat ass double loaded pizza from Dominos

Sounds good to me OP, what the fuck are you complaining about

What vid?

>>7292855
Hummus is good when used as an appetizer for some savory dishes, but as a snack is largely unfulfilling

No 'ghetti?

Pita bread and hummus sounds really fucking good right now. It makes such a good snack.

Almost sounds like /ck/ has been taken over by Hawaiians.

Lau lau. Not sweet.
It's usually pork, with ti leaves and a chunk of butterfish wrapped up and steamed until falling apart tender and delicious.
>>
>>7294737
Weird. My mom used to wrap up some type of sweet, sticky rice in a leaf similar to that and serve it for dessert.
>>
>>7294757
Sweet, glutenous rice steamed in banana leaves is common throughout SE Asia.

Yeah she's Filipino. I wasn't sure if it was an island thing or what.
Haven't had it in forever though but seeing that picture made me feel like a kid again.

no 'roni?

I need to put that inside my mouth immediately. What's up with the cellophane noodles, though? I've never seen those with a plate lunch.

You can get chicken long rice in a bento at any 7/11 in Hawaii.

>long rice
I haven't heard that term in twenty years. My mom used to make that when I was a kid, but I had forgotten about it. You just blew my mind, hoss.
>>
>>7295530
I miss manapua so bad.
I used to drive home from my high school gf's house at night, who lived on the other side of the island, and would always pick up a bento and manapua from 7/11.

>you just blew my mind
The same thing happened to me just a month ago when someone here posted squid luau and I realized I'd completely forgotten about it, and probably never even knew what it was.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellophane_noodles
What faggot decided to name these Cellophane noodles for America? Clearly they're fucking vermicelli

>>7295609
What prancing poofter decided to use an Italian word as an American name for Asian starch-based clear noodles?
FURTHERMORE "long rice" appears to be a Hawaiian term for a dish made with noodles that are not made from rice starch, but rather beans or tubers.
There's no justice in the world. I trust you can learn to cope.
>>
>>7295618
Not him, but you have to admit it's a dumb name. It's like calling bread "fat wheat." Plus long grain is also a real thing.
I actually have been reading "long rice" as "long grain rice" until this thread. Interesting to think how many things I must have misinterpreted over the years.
>>
>>7295624
Don't even try to understand Hawaiian vernacular.
It's the result of almost a dozen different cultures coming together as plantation workers all at once on an already inhabited island chain, and then pretty much getting conquered and incorporated into the United States, who've used it as both a tourist destination and military base.
