To my friends, brothers and sisters in or passing through the Joplin, MO area:…read more While in Joplin recently, I happened upon the Island Genez Market, a small grocery specializing in Pacific Islander foods. They didn't have what I was looking for, which turned out to be a fruit primarily grown in Mexico. But the owner of the store stopped his work and spent several minutes helping me anyway. He did Web searches, made phone calls and gave driving directions to local stores. Throughout, he was pleasant and courteous. His wife, working as a cashier for a lineup of customers, was equally friendly and kind. While he and I chatted, I looked around the store. Their freezers were stocked with beautiful and delicious-looking seafood and other products. There were fresh fruits in boxes. Shelves ran up and down the store loaded with familiar staples and treats in unfamiliar packaging and brands. It was almost as if I'd stepped into a neighborhood market on a South Pacific island. Our conversation wandered and came to rest on our Western food supply. He mentioned they had compared the ingredients of some products they import to those commonly found on the shelves in local supermarkets, and found there were far fewer ingredients overall and almost none of the chemical preservatives. Further along, I complimented him on their store and asked about business. He shrugged and said, "We're trying, but the trade tariffs are hurting us." If you're a fan of Pacific Islander cuisine, interested or just curious, I encourage you to visit Island Genez Market at 2914 East 32nd Street in Joplin, MO. You might find a new favorite or a more healthful version of an old one, and you can help support a locally owned and operated small business and good people.

It may surprise some folks that we have a growing Polynesian and Pacific Islander communities in the area. They bring a more diverse culture and foods many midwesterner's have never been exposed too. The owner and I enjoyed a nice chat, some cultural history and shared experiences that made me feel right at home. And I'm a total gringo but I grew up with many friends and coworkers from these parts of the world who are some of the nicest, hardest working people I know. I hope this place is supported so they can grow and bring in more products and flavors from this wonderful region of the world.
