Pastele sausage is a specialty of the Kukui Sausage factory as is the
kimchee sausage. Pasteles is a favorite around here and you can find
people selling them on the side of the road. A sausage with bananas
sounds yucky but it's a very tasty, non-weird, sausage.

The chorizo is Mexican style in that there's no binders and it's raw
meat. It's not smoked, cured, or dried. It falls apart in the pan so
it's kind of messy.
