Po‘e or poke is a Polynesian pudding usually eaten as a dessert.
==Etymology== The Tahitian word ''po'e is derived from the proto-Polynesian root poke which means "to mix", "to knead". It is still called poke'' in all Polynesian languages except in the Tahitian language and in the Austral language on the island of Raivavae where the glottal stop (written as an apostrophe ') has replaced the voiceless velar stop (k).
