replies: text: That's really interesting. I'm not going to pay for subscriptions to get into all those citations, but I trust your research. Certainly if the first tiki lounges introduced the term near the close of WWII, that is plenty of time for the pupu platter to become well-entrenched across the continent by the 1970s. After all, the "traditional Hawaiian custom" of giving a kiss with a lei also began during WWII! I've not heard back from any Chinese etymologists regarding the origin of the name, but have some others I'm planning to contact. Hula Rider (talk) 06:51, 3 January 2010 (UTC)

message: Aloha.  Looks like there's some confusion about the hawaiian language homonyms for shells and 'awa 'chasers'. It's true these words for shells and 'chasers' are both spelled and pronounced the same, but they mean something different depending on context. In this case, 'pupu' are the bits of food taken after drinking 'awa, to get the taste out of your mouth.  'Awa doesn't taste good and where it's traditionally used, there's usually some 'chaser' to take the taste of it out of your mouth.  Nowadays in America, 'pupu' has been transferred to the 'nibbles' you have with alcohol.  And that's what this article is about, those canapes.  Chinchin, et bon appetit!  'Inu a kena!
