A few days later; in a restaurant in Hilo on the Big Island Jun: What is this meat on the rice? Lisa: It’s spam. Hawaiians eat more spam than any other people in the world! Jun: Well, it tastes weird. I liked Feather’s hemp meat better. Lisa: We eat eleven thousand cans of this stuff a day! Here, try some of my poi. Jun: Gross. Kind of like congee but nasty. Lisa: It’s an acquired taste, yes. But it’s a staple of the islands. Jun: What are those people outside carrying signs about? Lisa: I think they’re Hawaiian independence activists. Let’s look when we’re done eating. 小君：这饭上面是什么肉? 莉莎：是猪肉罐头的肉。夏威夷比世界上其它民族要吃掉更多罐头猪肉。 小君：嗯，味道尝起来怪怪的。我比较喜欢羽毛的大麻种子素猪肉。 莉莎：我们一天要吃掉一万一千罐这种罐头呢。来，尝尝我的芋泥。 小君：好恶心喔。有点像粥，不过很恶滥。 莉莎：是啦，这味道是需要去习惯。但是，这是岛上的主食。 小君：外面那些拿牌子的人在干嘛? 莉莎：我想他们应该是夏威夷独立运动份子。我们吃完饭后出去看看吧。 重点解说： spam (n.) 猪肉罐头，poi (n.) 夏威夷用芋头烹煮的菜肴，congee(n.) 粥，稀饭 staple (n.) 主食 acquired taste (n.) 需要去习惯而后才会喜欢的味道 activist (n.) 行动派份子，Hawaiian independence 相关资料 |
