JAPANESE LUNCH BOX on Shinkansen Bullet Train

Today we're taking the bullet train from Tokyo to Kyoto via Nozomi, the fastest Shinkansen! To keep our taste buds entertained for the nearly 2.5 hour ride, we dive into bento. These Japanese lunch boxes are packed with such detail. They are like mini buffets, but in mini portions. Watch the video to see the food adventure unfold :)

The Japanese really make food an art. The bento boxes are gorgeous.

Everywhere do my mom makes it with American food

[@tikimcdixon4647]

I would have hand washed the box and reused it if possible

[@angelali5502]

The rice is just ....AMAZING!

[@redoctober6521]

You should try the self heating bento box. Pull the string, that starts the chemical heating pad, and in 10 minutes, you have a warm food. It was really good

[@MissMinaOh]

WHERE DOES ONE FIND THIS MAGIC? MUST TRY!!!!! :D

[@redoctober6521]

It was at Tokyo Station, I was about to catch the Shinkansen to Niigata, and stopped in one of the larger, walk-in Ekiben shops. I saw iit and knew I had to try it. It was good

[@redoctober6521]

It took a while but I found it. You can get the self heat bento at Matsuri Station Bento (just inside the ticket gates in Tokyo Station)

[@uriko1990]

So true!! I was "Ooo..aahh.." when I opened mine.. I miss Japan!!

[@ellahusk3689]

Those were the best!!

[@laboucher]

The crispy root is called gobo in Japanese and burdock root in English!

[@philkumai]

I have to second that. They made it kinda thick in the bento box though. I'm used to it being in thinner strips like matchsticks :) lol

[@candasmith]

Love gobo!

[@irememberla6460]

Yes I think so as well

[@Sethonious]

Beat me to it, but yeah I’m two weeks late watching the video...

You are a like a bob Ross of food traveling. Always in the mood to watch your videos. Insightful, humorous, and fun❤️

[@MissMinaOh]

Awwww that is so sweet! I heart Bob Ross 👨🏻‍🎨💕 These are some of my favorite quotes from him: “There are no mistakes, only happy accidents.” “There’s nothing wrong with having a tree as a friend.” “Now then, let's come right down in here and put some nice big strong arms on these trees. Tree needs an arm, too. It'll hold up the weight of the forest. Little bird has to have a place to set there. There he goes...” 🌲💪🕊😄

That makes sense to have a bento box store at the train station. Wow. That train ticket price though....O_O Wow. The bento box looks so well packaged!

[@excll5231]

Presentation is very important to the Japanese. When you go to buy omiyage at shops they show how everything inside is presented. Even at fast food restaurants, for the most part they match the pictures

[@yuzulemonmikan]

xxnike629xx What was the price?

[@chiaraippoliti]

さゆり 250 U.S. dollars. She said it in the video.

[@xxnike0629xx]

@さゆり 0:39 If you check here, she says total cost was ¥27,480 (US Dollar, $248.23).

[@thatsaltybrit2603]

Train tickets are a similar price here in the UK it’s ridiculous

[@Vinnafetish]

I love the appearance of a Bento Box it is just so neat looking

[@sydniberry617]

I love her bond with her mother.Its a silly loving and caring relationship.A lot of adults don’t see their parents that often. Im glad you stay connected with her!😊💕

[@BikiniBottomFlipper]

Normally I can't stand watching people eat because of the sounds, but your videos are always a blast. You're so good at describing what you're eating. I always learn somthing new watching your videos! Can't wait for the next!

You should have went to the ramen shop. I've watched a documentary about foods and it says that it is one of the best ramen shops!

Awwww, you call your mother the same as I called my dear sweet Japanese mother except I spelled it as 'Mommy Yo'. Kind of brought a tear to my eye. 😢

[@MS-bb6kt]

I love the way she talks, and the food looks so good! I wish i could try one.. ❤

[@abuse1924]

I love the way she plays around with words, also combining how she categorizes the food in shape, color & texture. She also points out things that many people wouldn't admire, or even notice. It makes me more aware of things and to appreciate the small things around me. In the end, I always fall in love with her videos. She's different from others who vlog food, and I'm grateful to watch her videos.

[@YourLocalGayArtist]

Her and her mother/grandmother bond with each over so much and it’s good❤

[@ks-gi4ss]

I wish I could vegetables like she does. It makes me so jealous how she eats everything so well!

[@yellowowl]

The mystery food is “gobo” root (burdock root). A lot of fiber. Very common Japanese food :)

[@madeinaotearoanz]

Yellow Owl Ahhh thank you.

[@robertho4337]

Yup agreed it's burdock root. Very common in Japan.

Do the bento boxes get recycled regularly? Trashing them seems like such a waste

[@JDPewPewPew]

I believe Japan has a really good recycling program and they recycle the majority if not all of their disposable products.

Yeah, I saw a recycling factory in Nagoya once. it was amazing how the whole procedure is so smooth and the workers work really hard during the recycling progress. Mad respect😤
