On this episode of Eating the Past, we're exploring the cuisines of Hawaii. Jennifer Sinor is a creative writing professor at Utah State University. She grew up as a military dependent on O'ahu, and shares her experiences and memories of Hawaiian foods.

With a BA in Political Science and a Master of Divinity, Jeannie Sur has been at USU since 2017. Originally from the Pacific Northwest, Jeannie loves Utah for the outdoors and its mountains, although she misses the Pacific Ocean. No matter where she's lived, she's been a listener and supporter of public radio. Jeannie enjoys mid-size cities, textiles, and individual sports, especially cycling and swimming. If she could have one superpower, she would shrink furniture for easy moving. She hopes to one day have more animals and a sauna. (#lifegoals)
