Lunch Pack for Dinner!! | April 9, 2015

[@kyo45]

I just got back from Japan and the sounds of the train station are making me miss japan so much

[@kydeanderic]

kyle spurlock Haha, nice. -Eric

[@etherdog]

I've seen about 6 vids on YAMAZAKI LUNCH PACK SHOP in Ikebukuro Station and yours is by far the most descriptive (and entertaining)!

[@vlk40]

So envious of your life over there! Just found your videos and am enjoying them- you both are fun to watch!

[@kydeanderic]

Victoria K Thanks so much! -Eric

[@raeesmerelda]

I about half-lived off the peanut cream ones for breakfast while I was in Japan. I loved those things!

[@kydeanderic]

raeesmerelda Yes! So good! -Eric

[@Yesica1993]

I can never watch your vids unless I have food in my fridge. You guys are always showing food and it always makes me hungry!

[@kydeanderic]

Yesica1993 Haha, nice. -Eric

[@yamanoklla631]

Eric looks like that one uncle who is always happy

[@kydeanderic]

***** Not always! i.imgur.com/QGH7Kqy.jpg

[@thedigitalj3d1]

Thanks for sharing your videos! You both are refreshing, smart, funny. Subscribed!

[@kydeanderic]

Davu Noko Thanks so much! -Eric

[@astroboy3507]

Oishiiiii !!!! Yamazaki cakes and breads !!!!! I love the egg imprint on the bread too how neat !!!!!!!! Thanks guys !!!!

[@kydeanderic]

astroboy3507 You are welcome! -Eric

[@fredrikwaara1400]

Thanks for all your videos. Seen most of them and they're great, Must commend you for the use of 60p, it really adds presence.

[@kydeanderic]

Fredrik Waara Thanks! The 60p improvement KZbin made is awesome, isn't it? -Eric

[@Hmong664]

Stumble across your videos and I love love them!!!! Keep them coming.

[@kydeanderic]

Kab Xyooj Thanks! Will do!

[@Ime2195]

idk why im so happy when i see you guys living happily together in japan lol

[@kydeanderic]

Oudeis H I'm happy to hear that! This is like a perpetual motion machine. -Eric

[@tyronep22]

Ok so finally back home!! Where i need to be. My first Kyde & eric video I'm watching in a long while. So glad to see your new updates. Can't wait to watch the videos!!! I'm hungry so I think I will watch a few Kyde & Eric Food vids to give me some ideas on what to eat. Ha ha Yea!! Good to be back on KZbin!! Thought i never say that!! ^_^

[@Pogue4]

You both just make me happy...

[@kydeanderic]

ORANGE ZEN Yay!

[@AnimeStarwind]

I really wish we had something like that here! They all look so yummy ^-^ Another thing to add to the list when I visit.

[@kydeanderic]

AnimeStarwind Yes! They are awesome! -Eric

[@kjlovescoffee]

"If there is, like, a severed hand in here or something, I'm gonna be very....happy." This gave me such a kick!

[@kydeanderic]

kjlovescoffee Hahaha.

[@TubeDeviant]

Sandwiches and legs at 4:18 FTW..!! Yes, they go together pretty well..

[@kydeanderic]

TubeDeviant Haha, that's so common here we don't even notice anymore. -Eric

[@LazyTravelDays]

I really loved this video, thanks. We love it when we get a notification saying you have an upload. Please keep it up.

[@kydeanderic]

Lazy Travel Days yay! Will do! -Eric

[@nihoninlove7310]

I wonder if minchi would be minced... I love these sandwiches though! The ones with the chocolate bar inside are great!

[@LancerJak]

Aw man I didn't know there was a store that only sold these things. I loved these things when I was there and I was in that station quite often.

[@kydeanderic]

LancerJak Yea, I don't know if the store is a new thing or not. Maybe it is. -Eric

[@gumdokim]

The force is with you on this one...

[@KorrupTOh]

More videos like these please!i would like another day to day of what you eat! #japanliving

[@kydeanderic]

KorrupTOh We hope to make more short videos about foods we find now and then. -Eric

[@odddog11]

Hey! Kyde and Eric I'm visiting Japan right now! I was in shinjuku a day after you posted this, I'm actually here all week! Love your videos btw

[@kydeanderic]

odddog11 Nice! Enjoy your stay! -Eric

[@cevindevy]

Great vid! I'm so gonna go to Ikebukuro for those sandwiches on my next trip to Japan. By the way, was it one of you guys who made the Vader breathing sound?? :D

[@kydeanderic]

cevindevy Haha, yea, that was Darth Kyde. -Eric

[@foxgod8832]

Love your videos guys. I'm new to your page. Keep living your dream! 😀

[@kydeanderic]

Jesse Kirby Thanks! -Eric

[@HiddenThicket]

Everywhere you go in Japan looks like an airport.

[@kydeanderic]

Mind Bones hahahaha! That is a great observation! -Kyde

[@punchandjudy1]

I wish we had these in the US

[@superultrarollingbomberthu8829]

I imagine those are popular with overworked salary men

[@kydeanderic]

+SuperUltraRollingBomberThunderCorporation I usually see teenagers in there, actually! -Eric

[@keandric2765]

Ooh, those actually look pretty good! If I ever get around to visiting Japan, I'll be sure to get some to have as snacks or something :)

[@kydeanderic]

keandric 2 Yea, find the cookies and cream one! -Eric

[@nonnijacobs9095]

Someday, can y'all make a video about how you pack for your trips?

[@kydeanderic]

Caitlan Perkins This is from a few years ago, but it shows how Kyde packed for a trip we took that lasted a year and a half: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nJSQdHSudtN0o80

[@no_i_dont_want_no_slugs]

You two are so great. I like you.

[@kydeanderic]

jecman4576 Thanks! -Eric

[@roarmaus]

I would park some of those in a toaster oven. Also, Chris Pirillo is a Vader fan who should be mailed that wrapper 😀

[@kydeanderic]

oneroarmouse Yea, some of them would be great warmed up! -Eric

[@rawstarmusic]

oneroarmouse It does look like toaster craving objects, something the lady would toast or fry up and then serve. Thought it was some rice bun but it's obviously bread without color. Something for the space station.

[@ReiWatanabe]

Menchi-katsu is essentially a deep-fried meat cake. The meat is usually ground beef, pork, or a mix of the two. I would prefer the croquette sandwiches over any of the sandwiches you tried in this video, though.

[@Dylan-oh5ii]

This reminds me of "Top of the Muffin to you!" from Seinfeld. What do they do with the crust?!!

[@kydeanderic]

Hahahah. Give it to the homeless! -E

[@hiiiimymelody]

An oreo cream sandwhich?! Was it better than the 711 strawberry custard sandwhich? Looks simple yet amazing.

[@kydeanderic]

hiiiimymelody Yes, oh my god yes. -Eric

[@DC-lu5qs]

This is probably old news to you guys, but I just realized that the same company that makes Lunch Pack also runs a combini chain! Daily Yamazaki - it's not as ubiquitous as 7-11, Lawson, and Family-Mart, but I would bet that they tend to reliably carry this!

[@kydeanderic]

+Dan C I didn't realize they were run by the same person! We have a Daily near our house. They might have more flavors than other shops! -Kyde

[@DC-lu5qs]

+Kyde and Eric I hope so! I found this store only because of this video, so I'd love to return the favor, sort of :) For anyone looking for this store, it is across from the north JR gates.

[@maddiek4356]

About how much was each one in dollars?

[@kydeanderic]

+Maddie k Around a dollar. -E

[@BGuhChannel27]

Wow!

[@828et]

I love your videos keep up the good work

[@kydeanderic]

828et Thanks! Will do! -Eric

[@Kenko_4]

I'm pretty sure soboro usually refers to ground chicken, not beef. Soborodon has ground chicken and egg

[@NessaRossini...]

I wonder if they'll do an ice cream one?

[@kydeanderic]

+Nessa Rossini That's a wonderful idea! -E

[@superultrarollingbomberthu8829]

0:38 you talked about those in part 1 of the Kumamoto and Miyazaki vid kzbin.info/www/bejne/p5DWgXRjqaamhbM

[@kydeanderic]

+SuperUltraRollingBomberThunderCorporation Ahhh, good memory! -Eric

[@bolts5994]

the food there looks SOOOO much more fun to eat than in the states.

[@kydeanderic]

+bolts “kgaf99” fan Haha, don't count out some of the things you have! I'd kill for a ruben right about now! -E

[@bolts5994]

that is true. but the food looks like fun. its so cool to walk into a shop and buy a cool little crust less sandwich. lol

[@user-vc7bo4zy3l]

I miss Japan.

[@jeffrey9876543211111]

if only I could order some and get them in america

[@MarcusReviews]

Great looking sandwich

[@kydeanderic]

Mrkingreview1 Yes! So good! -Eric

[@hashglass]

big bump over right eye i got one over my left one :)

[@mustangrebus]

I enjoyed the video a lot--You have managed to find things that I did not know about--You're creativity and resourcefulness is appreciated. Kyde--great adjectives and adverbs. I am curious about your package opening struggles--Most Japanese products are designed to be opened easily. They have little cut tabs in everything--is Eric just rebelling? Is he refusing to open where they suggest opening? I guess well chalk that up to punk rock sensibility.

[@kydeanderic]

mustangrebus We are just being silly about something from Seinfeld with the packaging. -Eric

[@mustangrebus]

I caught the Seinfeld reference. However, I have seen all your videos from Japan and you guys do seem to struggle opening packages. Keep making videos-they are one of the things I look forward to.

[@scottmiller4789]

One thing I love about your vids, always talking about food. The one thing I hate about your vids, your always talking about food lmao Makes me hungry, every time. Peace!

[@kydeanderic]

Scott Miller Hahaha.

[@chicagoguy81]

Kyde and Eric what food do you guys miss the most from the states?

[@KydeEric]

Honestly, not much. We've been gone so long it's not something we think about much. -Eric

[@Designandrew]

Eric can you post the lyrics to your song from the intro?

[@kydeanderic]

Designandrew I have no idea what they all are! -Eric

[@Designandrew]

Kyde and Eric But is it "take it to the air, take it to the air, like I really care?"

[@kydeanderic]

Designandrew Yea, maybe. Your guess is as good as mine. -Eric

[@Designandrew]

Kyde and Eric Oh I just thought it was one of your songs haha

[@pizzahut99]

Why don't they have these in the US....by the way GREAT video!

[@kydeanderic]

Pizzahut99 Don't they have something kinda like it? Uncrustables or something? -Eric

[@mystic4877]

Just subbed! Love the videos and your attitude! :))

[@kydeanderic]

MysticPlays Awesome! Thanks! -Eric

[@raffaelae1020]

the Oreo one sounds awesome!

[@kydeanderic]

***** It was SO GOOD. -Eric

[@KennethScharf]

How long did it take for you guys to learn enough Kanji to read food labels?

[@kydeanderic]

Kenneth Scharf Typically menus and food stuffs are written in katakana which is way easier to learn than kanji, so in that case it can be mastered in a few months. Kanji can take years and years of constant study. -Eric

[@zipp4everyone263]

Kyde and Eric Not to mention the sporadic mix of kanji, katakana and hiragana =P

[@drmlabs]

lol and the egg salad had no mayo! That was totally unexpected

[@OtakuMadnesspwns]

drmlabs And egg salad is the one sandwich they ate that we Americans would have expected to have mayo in it!

[@kydeanderic]

Otaku Madness Haha, yea! -Eric

[@mrbobbell]

Hey guys, Unless I missed it, neither Kyde nor Eric stated the cost of the lunch packs. I'm really curious whether the various flavors are similarly priced for similar sizes. Also, does the vendor provide access to a microwave oven if you chose to nuke your lunch pack? Thanks, as always. Patron Bob

[@kydeanderic]

Bob Bell They are between 120yen and 250yen from what I saw. I wondered the same thing about microwaving them...I wonder if that is something that would just make the bread all soggy. I'll give it a go someday! -Eric

[@tomato603]

You ate quite lots of them in one go! :)

[@kydeanderic]

Tom Ato Yea, but it was literally our dinner! -Eric

[@kenzie2191]

I'm not normally a sweet-tooth person but holy shit. That oreo one. I need it.

[@UnTouchGamingHD]

7/11 at my place used to have these type of sandwiches, I believe they were called pocket sandwiches. But I don't see them anymore

[@TabbyAngel2]

yummy the cookies cream one :3 ps

[@kydeanderic]

TabbyAngel2 You have no idea how much Seinfeld I have seen. -Eric

[@iTadakimAsu85]

Speaking of Vader, check out the new Star Wars episode 7 trailer, its pretty amazing.

[@keandric2765]

iTadakimAsu85 Freakin Amazing is more like it.... haha. It's Great :D

[@kydeanderic]

iTadakimAsu85 Just watched it, amazing looking! -Eric

[@umbertocalvini7429]

How much are these sandwiches? It's about 118 Yen to $1 USD these days. Bread without the crust is like muffins without the top or cap, Seinfeld speaks!

[@kydeanderic]

***** They are from like 100yen to 250yen or so. Not too bad for a quick snack. -Eric

[@backtogeek]

very...... happy! LOL

[@annother3350]

Eric went to the dark meat side

[@fnv-w3n]

"Evolutionarily" lol.

[@TaylorHopper99]

Never been this early!!

[@Oukoyami]

Yumm Darth Vader sandwich. Thank God the new Star Wars movie is coming out Christmas Day : )

[@kydeanderic]

Oukoyami Yea, it looks like it will be awesome! -Eric

[@krj0829]

I think Eric could legit eat half a sandwich in one comfortable bite..no chipmunk cheeks.

[@kydeanderic]

Kevin J Hahaha, only half? Psh, I got the whole thing. -Eric

[@japanese-spider-man]

一番好きな味は何ですか？ What is your favorite flavor ?

[@MichieandJames]

That's what pocket knives are for, opening junk food!

[@davidice101artistdavideric7]

🐓🐥🥳😎😁❤🌞

[@DanielMcGregor]

Hehe^^ Neat Video. Sandwiches without crust. Kinda wierd. Maybe it's because of the texture? Star Wars is everywhere.^^ I just watched the new teaser. So much to see.^^ Can't wait to see that new big ass Lightsaber wielding Sith in action. When you go to Endor, dig up Vaders remains and put his trashed helmet on a plinth, you are a special kind of evil. I even liked seing Harrison Ford as old Han Solo. Kinda workes for me. :D Fingers crossed till Christmas. ^^

[@kydeanderic]

Daniel McGregor Yea, that teaser looked awesome! I'm stoked too! -Eric

[@Vman158]

Its almost like a Jaffle

[@gimmiett]

its chicken not beef fyi

[@kydeanderic]

gimmiett Yea! Missed that kanji on the package. Derp. -Eric

[@88mxl]

Are you from the ocean? Lol

[@CarolynnMarkey]

woah. weird, interesting, and I wish I could try one :P Also, watching this has made me hungry :P

[@kydeanderic]

***** Get some Oreos, blend them and put them in a sandwich! -Eric

[@CarolynnMarkey]

hahaha. no thanks :P I hate oreos! (sorry)

[@howdyouknow]

Darth Vader, always doing the right thing... lol. I'm not the biggest Star Wars nerd, but I'm actually really excited for the upcoming film. Are you guys hype for it too?

[@kydeanderic]

Joe Blow Yea, it looks like it's going to be tits. -Eric

[@FifthAndAtlantic]

Oreo sammich! Sign me up!

[@kydeanderic]

FifthAndAtlantic Yea, I need more of those in my live. -Eric

[@mikeb5748]

does everything in japan come with a sauce? mayo, or whatever other sludge that can be dredged up? Seems like you cannot "get it your way" at any of the eating establishments you post.

[@kydeanderic]

M Ba Often you can choose what you put on it. -Eric

[@mikeb5748]

thanks for the reply! I will be moving to Japan in a few months (military move) and have watched most of your videos to try and learn a bit about the environment there. Scary stuff but super exciting!

[@kydeanderic]

M Ba Don't sweat it, Japan is probably the least scary place on earth. -Eric

[@tadasane1088]

Lucky fukkkkzzzzz

[@WhiteStew]

Whoa! Darth Vader flavored Menchi-Katsu? I think it's contains a lot of iron. anyway 池袋のこの店で、私はツナ＆チーズと、ピーナッツをいつも買ってます :-)

[@kydeanderic]

Kei caramel クッキークリームを買いた方がいいです！すごく美味しいですよ！　－エリック

[@owned2easy]

do japanese people usually believe in evolution and big bang or more of some adam and eve stuff?

[@kydeanderic]

DuDuHead They tend to be pretty scientific. -Eric

[@zipp4everyone263]

DuDuHead As eric already said, they usually are quite scientific, althou much of their culture is inspired or has real connections to budism and shintoism. There are temples all over tokyo (some very small and some that are bigger than... a football field =P (like the sensoji temple grounds www.google.se/search?q=Sensoji&safe=off&espv=2&biw=1920&bih=979&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0CAYQ_AUoAWoVChMIxPjT592RxwIV5N9yCh2khARW&dpr=1 ) But they are very very often scientific and much more so than religious. Sure there are practicing monks and priestesses but its a very rare line of work. Then you have the folklore kind of inspiration that some belive in and some dont. Its often an inspiration for animes and mangas and chi is often used instead of the more western use of "mana" in fantasy situatiuons. Science has a much bigger place since they often separate work and spirituality quite well, depending on what line of work they have (breweries can have shrines for example and they tend to have one barrel blessed every year by shinto monks) but still many festivals are based in tradition more than spirituality... Religious, no not as we are in the west. Spiritual, yes but mostly based in tradition, honor, superstition, ledgend or for mourning or good luck. Hope i didnt make it overly complex ^^

[@garylu5395]

"This is the white stuff and it's REALLY good."

[@TheTmoomoo]

These remind me of Smuckers Uncrustables, just not completely sweet.

[@kydeanderic]

Temuulen Gansukh Yea, not far off! -Eric

[@jamesross6393]

Needs cheddar cheese:)

[@rall860331]

I was eating a sandwich when i clicked on this video :P but the oreos one doesn't seem too appetizing to me... like cookie and bread?

[@kydeanderic]

Ricardo Llamas It was so good! Good lord, I want another! -Eric

[@onichi2995]

:)

[@eamonfr6526]

Darth Vader flavored sandwiches, only in japan

[@kydeanderic]

the retro gamer 64 Haha, maybe! -Eric

[@ikaruseijin01]

It's a shame it's white bread, I was raised on whole wheat, so the white stuff is tasteless to me... but that's a minor quibble. I approve highly. I would definitely enjoy these.

[@ikaruseijin01]

For the dessert ones? Yeah that might be interesting. I dunno if it would hold together in the pinched edges process though.

[@kydeanderic]

ikaruseijin01 The bread was just a delivery system for the actual flavored contained inside! -Eric

[@Sailor-Rose]

they're uncrustables! :D ... Again! :D

[@kydeanderic]

RavenNight Yea! Close to the same! -Eric

[@gandharzero]

nice vid: funny how much people in the background use masks. It always made me think, that they are worried to get infected by foreigners ps. that sandwiches look like mini-pillows;)

[@kydeanderic]

gandharzero Hah, maybe they are afraid of us, but this time of year I think it's more about allergies. -Eric

[@gandharzero]

Kyde and Eric Anyways impressive. When i first saw them i thought it was maybe because of smog. But prevention of infection makes more sense. And it is a good example of discipline which is in line with the japanese 'way of life'. I mean they think in the greater good and know what happens if an disease-wave could happen.

[@Dino679]

Eric, why do random people wear masks ? Air quality poor?

[@Yesica1993]

DinoBakedZiti I was wondering and was going to ask the same thing! Glad I checked the comments so don't get a zillion people asking the same question.

[@kydeanderic]

Yesica1993 Hah, a few reasons. Close contact with tons of people on trains keeps people from wanting to catch germs, it's spring here now so the flowers mess with allergies and I have a unsupported theory some men wear them to avoid shaving. -Eric

[@Yesica1993]

Kyde and Eric Hm, public transportation can be pretty creepy here too. I'm tempted to try it!
