I read the headline and thought “no shit, they’re an island thousands of miles off the coast.”
I grew up in a mildly remote area off the usual trucking routes (2-lane highways connecting it north, south and east that washed out occasionally during winter storms) and prices were expensive even there because everything needed to be trucked in. I can only imagine the import costs in Hawaii with everything arriving by boat or air from overseas.
