How about keeping a few breakfasts onboard from the WestCoast to KOA flights
(OGG/LIH/HNL too) to be available to give to veges returning from Hawaii to the WestCoast? They could be available upon request and kept on board the plane so they didn't have to manage with Agricultural inspection/import.

By the way, the breakfasts are excellent.

One can take food beyond the Agricultural station if its no longer in its raw form so hummus should be ok unlike carrots. Pineapple is one tasty exception.
