<title>Poi Consumption: Consumption of a Traditional Staple in the Contemporary Era, in Honolulu, Hawaii</title>
<link>http://hdl.handle.net/10125/16466</link>
<description>A questionnaire explored poi usage, frequency of purchase, and purchasers' buying behavior. The report discussed relationships between socioeconomic variables and consumption patterns. Ethnic Hawaiians were likely to be the most frequent consumers of poi. The authors stated that in 1828 poi was a staple for perhaps 95 percent of the population of Hawaii, and it was still an important food 100 years after that, but at the time of writing it was regularly consumed by only 5 percent or less of the population. The authors speculated that unless changes were made in its form, packaging, and promotion, a package of poi "could become an anachronism." Their prediction that "if poi is to have a profitable and lasting future then the flavor of the bulk of poi must change" had not been borne out in the several decades following the report's publication.

<title>Hawaiian Names for Vascular Plants</title>
<link>http://hdl.handle.net/10125/12755</link>
<description>This is a list of vascular plants, the more conspicuous kinds of plants that typically have stems, leaves, and roots. The list does not include mosses, lichens, algae, or fungi. Before the arrival of the white man, Hawaiians had names for several hundred of the native plants. All common genera had names, and other descriptive major words (adjectives) were added to distinguish the different species or varieties. The origins of many Hawaiian plant names are now obscure, because the Hawaiians have lived here for many generations, but often the names simply describe the size, shape, color, odor, resemblance to plants and animals, location, ritual or practical use, growth form or pattern, etc. The exotic plants' names have followed much the same system, often being modified by the name "haole," indicating that they are foreign or introduced. The list is arranged by plant order and family, and within families by scientific name; it gives the Hawaiian name and its meaning. There is an index of Hawaiian names.
