While that is an entirely scummy thing for the company to do, and I hope any and all legal battles on this issue end up going against them, I'm not entirely sure I would actually call this cultural appropriation. They're trademarking a generic word that real people use. Even someone who wasn't Hawaiian, didn't directly partake in Hawaiian culture, yet also used those words would be subject to this company's shitty behavior all the same.

I don't understand exactly what you mean. Can you clarify?

I heard if you go to Hawai'i and ask for a Hawai'ian pizza they will love you and treat you like a king for enjoying Hawai'ian food.

Yeah and be sure to tell the locals that they're welcome for allowing them to join the USA and that they really should be more thankful for everything the white man has done for them.
