Does anyone know if the costco in Kona has kosher bread/wraps? What about kosher dairy products (including chalav stam)? And do they carry their atlantic salmon there?
You will be very hard pressed to find any bread with a hechser in Hawaii. I was only able to find Thomas Brand English Muffins and that sort of stuff. I did once find another brand (don't recall name) at a supermarket, but it was already beyond the expiration date. Rabbi Chazanow was trying to convince a local Hawaiian brand to put a hechser on, but last I checked he was not successful. Lets hope he succeeds in convincing them. Perhaps if a bunch of folks write to the company, they will do it.
Island Naturals does have Rudy's Organic Breads, but they were frozen and I didn't feel like buying them.
I suggest buying a bunch of bread and bringing it along, if that is possible. You can also buy rolls from Rabbi Chazanow, along with wraps and other food that he sells.
As far as dairy products go, you can find cholov stam cream cheese, yogurts and the like.
Not sure about salmon. I do know that Costco carries (last I checked) kosher cornish hens.
This is as locals say, the "price of paradise." They, however, refer to this because of the cost of food.
If anyone else has some additional information, I'd like to know as well.
