Aloha, my friend. I’m deeply enamored at the moment with Foodland market here on Oahu. It’s kinda like Whole Foods but with a local vibe.

We’ve gone three times in the last three days to pick up local snacks, drinks, sushi and pre-made bento boxes (portable to-go meals with rice, protein and a vegetable), and every single time, I swear I find something new and cool I’ve never tried before.








Case in point — a local brand of herbal teas called Shaka. I had the Lemon Lokelani Rose the other day and now I’m drooling a little just thinking it, yum!

What’s also very cool about Foodland is you can also not-so-typical gifts and souvenirs made locally. In addition to snacks and teas, you’ll also find cards, body care products, candles and more. I found them in the end caps all over the store.
A few things that caught my eye…












There are several locations all over Hawaii, so if you see one, it’s worth the time to pop in and look around.
I hope that life on your side of the keyboard is good!
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen
P.S. TGIF! My hair is CRAZY right meow. LOL.


I’d go again, if only they weren’t so down with cats/rabies . . .
Great content!
Hi Karen!
What town is this Foodland located? Was just home visiting family and I frequent the one in Kaneohe…but this one you speak of looks super cool and modern!
Hi! It’s in Kapolei, in a mall that has a Macy’s and a CPK.
I must have a thing for wild woman hair because I think you and Connor look gorgeous.
Gah! That rainbow picture up top! Hawaii really is paradise.
Dear Husband used to joke that he’s surprised they take US Dollars in Hawaii, because he says it always feels like another country.
Wow. That looks like a great store. The Foodland closest to me is a dump and I wouldn’t trust eating anything from there. It looks nothing like the store you are showing.
Wow those tropical cut flowers are gorgeous! Gotta love the ʻono poke selection at Foodland too! 😋
Aloha nui to you and your ʻohana! 😊🌺
We were in Maui recently, and I did almost all our shopping from the Foodland by us. The poke was a great deal compared to any food truck or restaurant. And we bought three of those Oribe hibiscus tea pouches home to the mainland!
Great pictures! I can see myself going crazy in there!
Foodland looks like my kinda place- I want ALL the tropical flowers!! Gorgeous! I think your hair is just “island vacay” hair- looks great and relaxed. Enjoy your island days…
Now I am craving sushi!
Enjoy your stay, crazy hair is usually a sign of a holiday done right.
