Hashi is the Japanese word for chopsticks, but is also defined as a bridge. Many theorize that the word hashi evolved to describe chopsticks because of the method in which chopsticks are used to connect food from one’s dish to mouth, or the holding of food between the two sticks which is visually reminiscent of a bridge. There is an undeniable, tangible connection between food and culture in Hawaii.
