Great finds at Aloha Stadium swap meet. Larger sized bags than many other vendors.

We stumbled into this stall during our walk through the swap meet. I wish I could say that we meant to come in here, but honestly, we saw the shade, and figured it'd be a good place to hide.It was meant to be! Once our eyes adjusted to the shade, we saw tables and tables piled high with different varieties of macadamia nuts, dried fruits, mochi and more. I honestly had no intention of buying anything, but once I started reading the labels on the packages, I realized I'd be leaving the stall with at least one bag.Four bags later, I had to tear myself away. I'm in love with the flavors I picked up, and even more in love with the price. I bought 4 12-ounce bags for $34 ($8,50/bag!) I bought one each of the Kona, cinnamon, honey roasted and caramel glazed. The best thing about my brief time under that tent was the customer service. My mom, cousin and I were yelling at each other over the tables, calling out all the names of all the different goodies we were finding. One of the guys running the table helped us out by giving samples of all the things we were going "ooh!" and "aah!" over. It really helped seal the deal for me - knowing what I'm buying is so important to me. Plus, they were delicious! The next best thing was the pricing. The bags of flavored macadamia nuts cost about a dollar more - for a smaller size! - at the Tropical Nut Farm off of Kam Hwy.

Update: Came back to Oahu after 3 years and were so pleased to find their stall again at the Aloha Stadium Swap Meet. They had the same shaded tent and attitude -- friendly, serving samples of whatever we fancied, and proud of their product. The elderly man in the tent said he owned the business and worked with supplier farms in Kona for their nuts. We were glad to buy several bags of their delicious and addicting flavors, especially the coconut, garlic, and plain Mac nuts. The man indicated that you could go to their warehouse on King street to buy the nuts as well and he said you could email them to buy them when you're back on the mainland (he said they'd ship in a US Postal flat rate box). There were other stalls that seemed to offer Mac nuts cheaper but not sure of their quality and they may be in smaller sizes so I'd recommend this place.)

Kicking myself as I love their macadamia nut chews and didn't buy more. I have been googling trying to figure out where I can buy more before I leave the island.

A coworker brought back 5 3oz bags of macadamia nuts produced by this company. The packaging of the bags seem very local with some of the bags having printed sticker labels. The 5 flavors that I tried were:1) Kona Coffee Glazed - I can taste the coffee in this one and it almost reminded me of chocolate.2) Hot & Spicy - I was initially put off by the bright orange color as I feared that it would be too hot. Fortunately, it wasn't as hot as I thought it would be and was quite good.3) Caramel - Pretty decent. Tasted like something out of a carnival.4) Sweet Wasabi - The sweetness overwhelms the wasabi and it wasn't as spicy as I hoped it would be.5) Honey Roasted - Reminded me of honey roasted peanuts.

I have never experienced such great customer care from many companies but Honey & Royal Jelly Hawaii definitely makes the cut. We were driving around the island and stopped at the macadamia farm near Kualoa ranch. I bought a bag of trail mix made by this company and found that the product was very rancid. I called the number on the package and the person I spoke with was very apologetic. I turned around since we were so close to the store and returned the bag and let them know that the product was bad. They pulled what was left off of the shelf and said they would speak with the company. An apology was enough but Honey & Royal Jelly Hawaii went above and beyond and sent me a little gift card. Wow! I would support this company 100%. To care about a customer like that shows such great integrity. Awesome job.....Mahalo...I will look for your products now to buy...

Honey & Royal Jelly Hawaii is the only reason why I go to the swap meet. They have been around for decades and I'm glad they are still a regular vendor at the swap meet. Honey & Royal Jelly offers an incredible vast variety of local snacks ranging from macadamia nuts, fresh pickled mango, dried coconut flakes, mochi crunch, gummy bears, li-hing gummy bears, li-hing mui, li-hing powder, dried ginger, dried mangoes with li-hing or plain, pretzels, and much, much, much more. There's something for everyone, locals and tourist alike. Staff is nice and knowledgeable, but there is a bit of a language barrier. If you buy their fresh pickled mangoes, they'll gladly give you sticks so you can eat your mangoes as you browse the rest of the swap meet. They also give out samples of almost anything you want to try. The only problem about Honey & Royal is that they don't properly advertise who they are. If you're trying to find them at the swap meet, the only sign they have up is a big white "macadamia nuts" sign above their tent.
