Except, I don't think any of it is made in Hawaii
anymore. Refining might still be done in California.
The last time I took a train to Sacramento, it went
past a big C&H facility (in Richmond, I believe).
That facility looked like it was at least 100 years
old. Very interesting, if you like looking at old
stuff.

Ah, it was in Crockett. That's near Richmond.

That article says they still are producing sugar
in Hawaii and refining it in California. Amazing.
They must be the last sugar producer in Hawaii.
