King’s Hawaiian sweet rolls are not Hawaiian enough, a new lawsuit charges.
The class-action suit, filed Friday in Manhattan federal court, accuses the maker of the popular baked products of defrauding consumers by suggesting they’re still made in the Aloha State.
In fact, they’re made in California.
“King’s Hawaiian has been known as the most authentic purveyor of its eponymous Hawaiian rolls,” Long Island attorney Spencer Sheehan, who filed the lawsuit on behalf of a Yonkers man and others, told The Post on Tuesday.

Post of the day, right there.
Next they’re going to tell us Girl Scout cookies aren’t made from Girl Scouts...
I never expected the “Hawaiian Rolls” to be made in Hawaii and shipped all over the continental US. I figured it was made by regional bakeries under contract, just like Buttermilk Bread and all of the old Hostess ‘cupcake’ products.
I do consider it false advertising NOT to mention that several German and British beer brands are produced in the US and are NOT imported. I remember when Tuborg was brewed here, the company with the license had it terminated by Tuborg because they changed the recipe or something in the brewing process. I remember visiting the Tuborg brewery in Denmark and enjoyed its excellent taste.
I’m hoping there’s no Girl Scouts in my Girl Scout cookies.
Looks like he bites his nails.
What an idiot
Some lawyers will file any suit
I travel frequently to Brussels for their sprouts.
I need to find a case like this to get rich off of somebody else. < /sarc>
