NATIONAL DAY

If you think this day is about the excuse to poke someone, then think again. This day is all about Poke, a dish native to Hawaiian cuisine consisting of raw fish with an arrangement of spices mixed in. Similar to sushi, Poke makes raw fish delightful by soaking up its ingredients and providing people with a light and tasty snack to munch on. Even though Poke originally started as a Hawaiian snack, it has since grown in popularity over the past decade alongside dishes like Acai bowls and bubble tea.
