    @raznomore wouldn't the corned beef get overwhelmed by the spaghetti flavours?

    Nothing wrong with either in their place - obviously on a pizza for the spaghetti if you're from Southland and in palusami for the corned beef . Love palusami

    TBH, aside from the pineapple with this breakfast, Brazillion BBQ and pineapple rings with fish and chips , I don’t actually like sweet fruits etc with main meals.

    @dogmeat you would think so. But its a beautiful marriage of weird and savoury.

    Palusami or Luau is a massive favourite in my family. Especially with my palagi wife. I made it for the first time ever recently - mum had always done it previously. I got the taste right - its hard to get wrong - but I left a little too much of the stems of the taro leaves on. So you end up with little prickles in your throat.

    We were all fine but my daughter's Greek/Australian bf, who was trying to impress me by eating loads of chop suey and luau, was spewing the next day...

    @raznomore I first knew it as luau as I had a bunch of Tongans work for me 20 years ago.

    When we were having a work feed I would give a guy a day off and $100 and he would cater - suckling pig from the umu, luau, chop suey, slaws, roast chicken, taro, plantain mmm mmmm. Well apart from te taro and plantain TBH them I don't go for. Starchy stodge.

    One year the same guy learned my old man was flying in from Oz. I'm waiting in the arrivals hall and Tonga (parents were creative with names 😉 ) turned up with 4 kids in tow handed me a big skip bin full of food " for your Dad" and went off to church. the OM was a bit suspicious at first but loves his crackling but we had enough to feed about 15 not three!!

    I've cooked it when we've stayed in Raro - as you say really easy. First stall I head for at Pasifika too.

    Canned corn beef and canned spaghetti. Discuss...

    Just stop.

    Was never a fan of canned spaghetti, more baked beans. Corn beef stew with doughboys was a staple growing up.

    My apologies if this has been raised, the All Blacks are refereed differently and more advantageously than other teams.

    @MiketheSnow you weren't supposed to like that one Mike...

    Is that meant to be a hot take or unpopular opinion?

    Canned corn can be made into corn fritters, make a great breakfast with a shitload of bacon

    @nzzp I have been the advocate for this fact for some time, but there were a few who actually had the gall to disagree with me. Usual suspects of course, argue against irrefutable truths.
