    There are many different factors that affect what Hawaiians eat, and some of them aren’t as obvious as you might think. Unlike what most people think pineapples are not the most prevalent food in Hawaii (unless you go to the tourist places then it will be the most abundant thing that you will find).

    Makena Tongg-Woodall Saculla, 1:30 Traditional Hawaiian Quilting Hawaiian Quilting is a very important part of Hawaiian culture. Hawaiian quilts are a combination of Polynesian heritage and American quilting. The Missionaries used quilts for warmth during the winter.

    In my opinion, reading 1 (Hawaii: The Land of Many) is more informative and useful for a person who knows nothing about the sugar plantations in Hawaii in the 1800s.

This reading teaches the reader about the sugar plantations and the life of the laborers that worked on these sugar plantations. Reading 1 states that the sugar industry boomed
