Are 'ulu Hawaiian breadfruit sandwiches the actual alternatives to vending machine Twinkies on the Hawaii Five-0 active police procedural television series episode E Ho'oko Kuleana: To Do One's Duty March 30, 2018?

Director Alex O'Loughlin and writers Matt Wheeler and David Wolkove build the eighth season's 18th episode around criminal evidence for arrests, neighborhood patrols and witness protection. The series' 186th episode overall considers Agent Colin McNeal's (Gonzalo Menendez) duty to arrest Hawaii Five-0 Task Force member Adam Noshimuri (Ian Anthony Dale) for murder. It details Hawaii Five-0 Task Force Officers Junior Reigns (Beulah Koale) and Tani Rey (Meaghan Rath) dong patrol duties demanded of Honolulu Police Department Academy graduates.

Ray Gardner's (Daniel Kaemon) suicide encourages Detective Danny Williams' (Scott Caan) examining efforts to extricate Brooke Gardner (Joanna Christie) from a physically and verbally abusive husband.

Danno finds the freed Brooke "a couple sandwiches," since "I can't have you eating the Twinkies in the vending machine. They could be 25 years old."

Danno, as an Italian food-loving New Jersey policeman, more likely gets together Italian bread with sandwich fixings than 'ulu Hawaiian breadfruit sandwiches, poi, desserts and beverages. Ancient Polynesians headed to the Hawaiian archipelago with canoe plants, such as 'ulu Hawaiian breadfruit, native of Indonesia, Micronesia, Papua New Guinea, Solomon Islands and Vanuatu. Adventitious basal shoots, seeds and vegetative cuttings increase 'ulu Hawaiian breadfruit, identified by Sydney Parkinson (1745?-Jan. 26, 1771) and Francis Fosberg (May 20, 1908-Sept. 25, 1993).

'Ulu Hawaiian breadfruit juggles edible, grindable, single-seeded achenes (from Greek ἀ-, "not" and χαίνω, khaínō, "gape") within fleshy perianths (from Greek περί, "around" and άνθος, "flower").

The Moraceae (from μόρον, "black mulberry" and Latin -āceae, "resembling") jackfruit and mulberry family member knows five- to seven-layered, immaturely starchy green, maturely custardy brown-yellow skin.

White- to yellow-fleshed, 11.81-inch- (3-decimeter-) long, 8.82- to 13.23-pound (250-gram to 6-kilogram), 3.54- to 7.87-inch- (9- to 20-centimeter-) wide 'ulu Hawaiian breadfruit looks smooth to spiny-surfaced. Their compound false fruit manifests hexagonal superficial disks from the merged, swollen petaled corollas and sepaled calyxes of 1,500 to 2,000 ball-shaped, lime-green, prickly female flowers. Monoecious (from Greek μόνος, "only" and οἰκία, "house") 'ulu Hawaiian breadfruit nets cylindrical, green-yellow, 1.97-inch (5-centimeter) diameter, 17.72-inch- (45-centimeter-) long male flowers three days before female.

'Ulu Hawaiian breadfruit, organized scientifically as Artocarpus altilis (from Greek άρτος, "bread" and καρπός, "fruit, grain"; and same-spelled Latin, "fattened"), offers black-green, glossy, leathery, yellow-veined leaves.

Gray, smooth-barked, 15- to 30-plus-foot- (4.57- to 9.14-meter-) long 'ulu Hawaiian breadfruit branches present alternative-positioned, 5.91- to 35.83-inch- (15- to 91-centimeter-) long, maximally seven-lobed, terminal leaves.

Seventy-year insect-repellent, shipworm-resistant, termite-tolerant life cycles queue up 23.62- to 39.37-inch (60- to 100-centimeter) diameter trunks and 39.37- to 85.3-foot (12- to 26-meter) canopies and heights. Soil pHs 6.1 to 7.4 reap 0.59- to 2.36-inch (1.5- to 6-centimeter) diameter, 5.91- to 7.87-inch- (15- to 20-centimeter-) long tap-like, 59.06-plus-inch- (150-plus-centimeter-) long lateral, roots. Annual 78.74-plus-inch (2,000-plus-millimeter) rainfall at 60.8 to 86 degrees Fahrenheit (16 to 30 degrees Celsius) and 2,132.55- to 5,085.3-foot (650- to 1,550-meter) altitudes sustain Hawaiian breadfruit.

Perhaps traditional Hawaiian culture-loving Hawaii Five-0 Lieutenant Commander Steve McGarrett (Alex O'Loughlin) and confidential informant Kamekona Tupuola (Taylor Wily) tend their own 'ulu Hawaiian breadfruit trees.
