• A Kiribati delicacy is palu sami, which is coconut cream with sliced onion and curry powder, wrapped in taro leaves and pressure cooked in an earth-oven packed with seaweed. It can be eaten on its own or served with roast pork or chicken.
• As in many of the islands of the South Pacific, there is a tendency amongst local people to regard imported canned products as luxuries.
