- Taco Rice by the Young Okinawans of Hawaii – “Taco Rice was invented by a chef in Kin, Okinawa who combined tacos (a Tex-Mex favorite of American marines at nearby Camp Hansen) and rice. This yummy ‘fusion’ dish includes rice, taco meat, lettuce, cheese, tomato, and salsa.” Description courtesy of YOH
