We all know it sure as heck isn't Wheaties.

I'm thinking coffee so strong you get splinters in your tongue, nail pancakes, a raw ostrich egg, and a Bloody Mary.

On one hand, Paul Bunyon would eat giant pancakes that took 20 men to make. But on the other hand, Gandhi didn't eat very much. WHAT IS THE COMMON DENOMINATOR?

Loco Moco is a recipe unique to Hawaii. It is a comfort food, or "local grind," of the Hawaiian Islands. Local food is not the cuisine that is served in upscale hotels and restaurants of Hawaii. Its basic structure was established soon after World War II - the best fast food or mixture of cuisines from many Pacific rim countries, with a special Hawaiian twist.

Loco Moco is a mountainous meal consisting of a heap of white rice topped with a hamburger patty and a sunnyside-up egg, then smothered in gravy. This dish is popular for breakfast, lunch, or dinner and is a candidate for the Cholesterol Hall of Fame. Loco Mocos are served at almost every drive-in, fast-food, and mom-and-pop restaurnat in the Islands.

There are many people who claim to have invented Loco Moco, but it is generally agreed that around 1949, either the Cafe 100 or the Lincoln Grill (both in Hilo, Hawaii) originated the first dish of Loco Moco. According to the story, the dish was created for teenagers who wanted something different from typical American sandwiches and less time-consuming than Asian food to eat for breakfast. The nickname of the first boy to eat this concoction was Loco ("crazy" in Portuguese and Hawaiian pidgin). Moco rhymed with loco and sounded great, so Loco Moco became the name of the dish.

KURT VONNEGUT IS NO CHAMPION. Just because you draw pictures of assholes in your book, that doesn't make you a champion.

― amateur!!st, Thursday, 2 September 2004 18:45 (twenty years ago)

― Pleasant Plains (Pleasant Plains), Thursday, 2 September 2004 18:46 (twenty years ago)

― kephm (kephm), Thursday, 2 September 2004 18:49 (twenty years ago)

I'm pretty sure he's still alive and eating Wheetabix.

I've read ten of his books and I can't remember a damn thing. Breakfast of champions, as any fule kno, is coffee and a cigarette.
