@tcmckay, I understand why you would have such a connection with those islands. It's a whole other world and one that everyone can learn lessons from. We should all strive to be more like the Tahitians!

When we were in Nuka Hiva we made banana bread with really ripe breadfruit. The locals loved it until we told them it was made with the ripe breadfruit. I guess they didn't think that was safe. Then while staying in Bora Bora we met a family that had a huge star fruit tree in the front yard. We asked them what they did with the starfruit and they said that it was too sour to do anything with. My dad picked a bunch, mashed them up, squeezed the juice from them and added sugar. Voila, starfruit lemon-aid was produced. The family loved it.
Awesome :) I bet they make that starfruit-ade a lot now!
