This is a common joke out in the country/outer islands. The city kids don't get it at all, because they speak less pidgin/Hawaiian. I tell this one to my summer reading kids every year, and every year they stare at me like I'm speaking gibberish. Which I am. THAT'S WHY IT'S FUNNY. Bah.
Here is the un-funny kau kau joke. ("Kau" is pronounced the same as "cow".) This joke works best out loud. Yell the last two lines at your confused victim.
I'll update this with color soon.
