Addicted to Passions and Pulp

Just wanted to say thanks to The Counter for giving Hawaii its own Twitter special last night. If you bought two burgers on “Twitter Tuesday” then you’d get either free sweet fries or a dessert.
To beat the crowds, we got there a tad bit early but got the okay that the special would still apply. [...]

The people have spoken, and the undisputed, most addicted fan of The Counter burgers is none other than Ryan Kanno. @ryankanno garnered over half the votes, beating the fanatic likes of @abaggy and @angelakeen.
Even with an impassioned entreaty for Pinoy support, @abaggy couldn’t keep up with the social engineering of Mr. Kanno. Congratulations Ryan! You [...]

If you happen to be craving crepes while in Kailua, head on over to 131 Hekili Street, the home of Crepes No Ka `Oi.
Their menu features both sweet and savory crepes which are surprisingly filling. We sampled the Temptation in Paradise and Lovers’ Delight (with strawberry ice cream).

Now in stores, new soda from Mountain Dew and Aloha Maid?!
Mountain Dew’s Game Fuel Horde Red and Alliance Blue are now in Hawaii. Here’s a review of Horde Red from Bevreview.com.
I didn’t know popular juice maker, Aloha Maid, produces soda as well. Iced tea and guava soda? Umm, I’ll pass.

Anyone know if Tats Shave Ice is on Twitter? It’d be cool if the colorful van of cool delights were on Twitter to notify their fans of their whereabouts.
Just yesterday, I saw the van down the street but didn’t get a chance to go. I was hoping they’d be back to day but no luck. [...]

Here’s the thing: you got to try the awesome hotness of the Himalayan Kitchen in Kaimuki. I don’t think I ever ate Nepali food, but after the Himalayan Kitchen, I want more.
First of all, the place isn’t the easiest to find, especially when the (original) Honolulu Advertiser review gives an incorrect address (see the Kitchen’s [...]

Back in 2005, Men’s Health ran an article about a study done at the Smell and Taste Center in Chicago. The conclusion of the study:
the smell of pizza can actually raise the sex drive in men
Can anyone vouch for the scientific validity of the findings? I wonder if hot dogs have a similar effect? Tabasco [...]

There is only one person I thought of when I heard there’s going to be a hot dog eating contest in Hawaii- the Tabasco Man! You know the drill, eat as many dogs in 10 minutes.
The contest goes down July 26 at Don Quijote Pearl City. Start practicing!!

The ecosystem of Pop Tarts continues to evolve to keep with the times. This instant breakfast is now healthier for you featuring fiber enriched toaster pastries!
And while you’re getting your daily intake of whole grain, you might be able to win $10 in iTunes.
Sadly, I’ll be eating 48 Pop Tarts without winning any iTunes music. [...]

Did you find your Pepsi or Mountain Dew Throwback yet? For eight weeks starting on April 20, these drinks sweetened with sugar and not High Fructose Corn Syrup (HFCS) will be available, and yes, they are in Hawaii. Over the weekend, I managed to find both Throwback varieties in 20 oz. bottles at Safeway in [...]

Wow, who pushed the turbo button? All of a sudden there’s a bunch of hits coming in to Pulpconnection. Hmmm, looks like the topic of the LOST cake created by the Ace of Cakes crew is trending. I haven’t seen last night’s LOST special, but I’m guessing the show talked about the cake made for [...]
