"kids love bentos" Me.... Watching this to prep my work lunches......I'm 28

[@TheLolo296]

Hades Rising same 😂... 19

[@neosildrake]

Please... make way for you elders: 46

[@kaosfury]

I'm considering this as well. Looks a lot more diabetic friendly. I'm also 46.

[@czntrm]

YAAAAASSSSS! I'm 36 and bento box lunches are perfect for work, picnics, hiding in the car eating lunch because you don't want to eat at a greasy fast food place, but you still have too many errands to just go home. 😆

[@murzdere8838]

so im the only kid

[@minemizushima1884]

Everyone needs a Satoshi in their life. His beautiful obento, his love of Daiso, love of gadgets and of course the way he speaks. Love your videos.

[@alixanarchic2783]

“It’s not expensive, watch me” Satoshi 😂💜

[@tomi1964]

The way Satoshi-San talks is SO adorable! ❤️

[@monar9880]

Agree! 🙂

[@thandielottering3587]

so cute. just makes me smile!

Try AliExpress for some of these gadgets they ship internationally

[@justonecookbook]

Hey Shinichi-san and Satoshi-san! Super excited and happy to collaborate with you guys again! Satoshi-san, I love your enoki mushroom tip on using the bottom. 捨てちゃ勿体無いですよね。勉強になりました。Your hambagu bento looks delicious and my family would love this! xo

[@mindysmom6132]

Just One Cookbook.....🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏻‍♀️ Nami San! I cannot wait to head over to see what you’ve created on this collaboration! I literally have Tabieats, you, and (Shinichi) no okasama to thank, for helping me to learn how to make nihon shoku. I was so lost, especially for Osechi Ryori, so thank you all! ❤️❤️❤️

[@tomi1964]

I could say I’m here because of you but I’ve been watching both Just One Cookbook and Tabi-eats for a while now! ❤️

[@mindysmom6132]

Susan Tomi .....Aren’t they amazing? ♥️

[@tomi1964]

Mindy's Mom Yes, Shinichi touches my heart when shares his true life stories. I love to see him so happy ❤️

[@mindysmom6132]

Susan Tomi....Yes! Me too! Will you be joining the livestream tonight? I’ll be looking for you, so I can say “hi.” ☺️

[@KingKoopa01]

I wish these two guys was my uncle's they seem very caring and just cool good people...

[@mindysmom6132]

KingKoopa01.....AGREED! I’m so blessed, in that I got to meet them, and hang out with them both, a couple of years ago. They are as genuinely kind and caring in person, as they are on video! I adore them! This is why I call them “my brothers.” ☺️

[@rebeccahherdener2068]

KingKoopa01 I agree!

[@MogglePictures]

I love the way how Satoshi is preparing all the Stuff with the Daiso Gadget❤️❤️❤️

[@boredvenus2023]

I love how in every video you mention your mother, it's beautiful to see someone who loves their mom so much. I really enjoy your videos from Florida, you guys are the best, XXOO

[@morganandwong]

Me too! As a mom, that part made my heart melt.

[@LeeTrifone]

It was fun to see you cooking in your kitchen! Please make a video for bento food safety; rules on cooking, packing, and storing your bento so your food is safe. Thanks for all your hard work!

[@atsukorichards1675]

Common food safety - Cool them down before you pack in the bento box. Avoid raw vegetable like leaf of lettuce. If you have to use one, take off any damaged parts. You can use the cool pack for food if you like.if you use the previous day's leftovers, heat them again in the morning.

[@billloman3151]

"Dont forget to wash your carrot." Good advice for bento AND for life :)

[@meitayama330]

Satoshi has real talent as a chef. His dishes always look amazing. ♡

[@reinulf656]

Love u guys. Please fix Satoshi's glasses!!!

[@lioness77alfar]

Its my wish as well how can he see well with glasses off

[@nates386]

It totally gives him the mad scientist look. Combined with the gadgets, its perfect.

[@stello6509]

Reinulf i felt the same way

[@MoPoppins]

Is part of the reason why Satoshi's glasses are always crooked because one ear is HIGHER than the other? I used to wonder if my sunglasses were crooked, or if it were ME, and it turns out to be the latter. My left ear is about 2 - 3 mm lower, so on one pair, I wrapped the arm w/ some duct tape, just in the area where it sits over my ear.

[@MoPoppins]

Dawn a calm kitty - I don’t think it was a mean-spirited comment. We all find Satoshi to be adorable and endearing, and my sense is that the comment was delivered respectfully. It just needed to be pointed out because when one cares, one tells others things like, “you’ve got something in your teeth,” or “you’ve got some toilet paper on your shoe,” or “did you know that your glasses are crooked?” I know I’d want someone to point it out. I once had a job where I went to the bank daily to deposit checks, and because the bank tellers were familiar with me, a couple of the ladies felt comfortable saying to me (in nearly identical comments, at separate visits) that they thought I was pretty, but that I was too pale...lol. I wasn’t at all insulted, and I appreciated their honesty and that they cared enough to want me to look my best (since it was something actionable, on my part). Similarly, Satoshi could also straighten out his glasses, so rather than have him walk around looking “disheveled” from the neck up, it’s better to point it out so he could also look his best. He’s got great taste in fashion (hat & glasses are always cute, so accessory game is strong), which means he’d probably want to know that his glasses aren’t sitting on his face right, since he probably cares about presenting well.

[@nostalgicfragments]

I love how you show how to use ingredients within reason. You often see recipes made for 4 or more people (a family) but I think most working people, you’re aiming for two portions (for you and someone else). I really enjoyed this video because you don’t see this style of cooking that often.

[@rebeccahherdener2068]

1. This is BRILLIANT! I LOVE how when he put the tomatoes in,it kind of formed into a heart shape. SOOOO cute! 2.challenge accepted. Lol. I will be definitely making a $3(or hopefully less!) Bento! Y'all's looked SO FRIGGIN YUMMY tho!

[@livingwithcline]

I stumbled upon your channel randomly and I love your channel already.

[@MrOdinsmom]

I think the gadgets are necessary because when you put the beautiful work in i think this translation is love in one of the purist of ways.

[@amysmith9955]

can we talk about how amazing you two are. your gadgets are amazing. Im new to this but im so excited!!!

[@ChopstickChronicles]

Hello Shinichi-san and Satoshi-san, Thank you for inviting and including me in this challenge. It was fun to challenge ourselves to make #3DollarBento. Hamburg is my favourite bento menu item too and yours looks delicious!

[@EllieofAzeroth]

You guys are so wholesome omg

[@Jodiesveganeats]

STOP BEING MEAN TO MY GADGET LOVING BOI SATOSHI!

[@natsumegami]

I love bentos which are fast and easy. It’s perfect for my son’s school lunch. Fast, easy yet yummy is very important for me who also takes care of a 9-month old son while prepping my first son for school every morning. I love collecting gadgets which can be useful in my kitchen too. High five, Satoshi! Daiso makes life easier. My husband can leave me in Daiso and return in 2 hours and I’m still not done lol. OMG! I never knew that the base of enoki is edible!!! I used to always throw that. Thank you so much for letting me know. You guys are sooooo adorable, I swear. Everything you prepare is surely delicious! I’m grateful that your channel exists. Life is more beautiful and easier with TabiEats.

[@mahakali1810]

Imagine someone prepares such a lovely box for you and you are sitting somewhere during your break, open the box and see this! I'm sure this could be a highlight on a stressful day ❤

[@atsukorichards1675]

I agree. I kept eating homemade bento through my college days. Now I am making bento for my son who goes to college. Thank you, Oka-san!

[@sunii4264]

He channeled his inner grandma on this healthy & tasty vid. Loved it.

[@sherbetfarts]

How have I not seen this channel before? I could listen to Satoshi talk all day, and that bento looks delish. You guys are adorable. Subscribed!

[@KaleidoscopeEffect]

My mom's HAMBURGER RECIPE is amazing! She adds a lot shredded carrot and some shredded onion, plus a beated egg, salt and I think a Knorr vegetable cube. It all adds a lot of flavour to the beef but you don't feel like you are eating carrot at all lol They are addicting.

[@SkyeMama313]

I absolutely love Satoshi! *waves hand* "its not expensive. Watch me". Lol

[@lisablair8847]

I'm going to try this! Please make more bento videos! Yours are the best videos with the best explainions.

[@SnoogyWoogy]

Oh man! Im totally going to make this for my room mate's work lunch. She'll love it. I even have that Omelet maker! I got it on my trip to japan this past christmas specifically because I saw it on your videos and wanted one so bad! I'll probably use minced up button mushrooms instead of the kind you used for the Hamburg though since its much cheaper here and we already have a bunch in the fridge but I LOVE how you show how to use what is considered waste of a product. I adore cutting down on food waste. Thanks for sharing and Im excited to go binge watch all the other videos people did for this challenge.

[@lovebunnykaz]

the Japanese guy is my favorite

[@benedettobruno1669]

4 March 2019, Palermo, Sicily. After watching dozens of KZbin videos on Japan I am starting to think that perhaps Japan is the top country of the World where you can find fantastic food in all shapes and colours everywhere and at every hour of the day and night: bentos, sandwiches, ramen, fastfood restaurants, vending machines, standard restaurants, street vendors...And it always looks good and tasty. And probably hygienicallly clena and safe too.

[@eirika2001]

just found your channel and am enjoying it a lot! Thank you for the English commentary, it is wonderful to be able to learn from you directly. :)

I saved your bento video for last. They were all great with wonderful ideas, but yours I will actually use soon. Love the enoki mushroom "stems" in the hambagu patty - great idea! Now, that cute bento box! I love it! This bento was so colorful and delicious looking and using the Daison 100 yen store gadgets added to the fun watching this.

[@caz8168]

The base of enoki should never be thrown out! You can place it on moist kitchen paper and cover with a tea towel and let it regrow in a dark cupboard. In a few days remoisten the paper towel and soon you'll have more fresh enoki! Never buy again. Your future bentos will be cheaper. There are plenty of vegetables that regrow from the supermarket, just look for roots.

[@Flareontoast]
