this has probably been discussed before, but I came up a blank... so...
Today I was playing a game on my grandmothers computer where you have to find words in a grid, I saw POI so I clicked it, and it came up with a definition, however I had to think about their definition:
Thought this was kind of cool, so first we have the HoP cafe, and now we have edible poi... anyone come across this stuff before?

POI (n.) A national food of the Hawaiins, made by baking and pounding the kalo (or taro) root, and reducing it to a thing paste, which is allowed to ferment

The edible type of poi was actually the first kind I heard aboout, I think it was in a movie or something. I've never had it though. I think its funny how two totally different things can have the same name. A food and a ball.

Don't mind me, just passing through.

I'm pretty sure this has been discussed before, but if you couldn't find anything, I'm crap at searching so I'll just give my 2 cents.
Yes, they're a food, and somewhere in the cooking/mixing/cooling/??? process, they were swung around.

The existance of flamethrowers says that someone, somewhere, at sometime said "I need to set that thing on fire, but it's too far away."
