Mexican Mom Try Japanese Food

[@MamahChannel]

What do you guys want to see the mamahs try next?!

[@danielsantiagourtado3430]

Colombian food! 🇨🇴🇨🇴🇨🇴🇨🇴🇨🇴

[@ThatOneBird_8231]

Idk but them trying Japanese food is cool

[@koolkidyouknow]

European/ French food.

[@CUnsal-my8cc]

Turkish food!

[@luismiguelcorreiamenezes5852]

Portuguese food

[@TakahashiTakami]

Greetings from Japan! Thank you for trying various Japanese foods! You were all very brave trying natto! Natto is something that you either hate or you like it. Even here in Japan, not all Japanese people like it. Also for the taiyaki, we do have other types of fillings here too! Red bean paste is traditional, but you can get your taiyaki filled with almost anything you want. Chocolate, custard, matcha green tea, whipped cream, etc.

[@MamahChannel]

Thank you for watching! ❤️ Is natto something that you enjoy?

[@TakahashiTakami]

@@MamahChannel Yes I do like it. It tastes better if you mix it with some shoyu (soy sauce) karashi (hot mustard) and some green onions and eat it over hot steamed rice. It’s very healthy for you. It’s also common to crack a raw egg on top and mix it all together as well.

[@alejandroramirez4470]

Taiyaki is a nice little treat being introduced through asian communities in california. There is an ice cream place called somisomi that has taiyaki instead of cones for additional cost. I personally love the red bean but always been a fan of custard in bread. Matcha is an option for one of the ice cream flavors, but I love ube as well.

[@nsbioy]

I tried natto and I did not think it was anything special. I would eat it again if it was offered, but I would not go out of my way for it. I do not understand why people are grossed out by it. Yes, the texture is strange, but there are other common foods with strange textures..

[@TakahashiTakami]

@@nsbioy It’s the texture and the smell that off puts a lot of people. It’s really healthy for you though.

[@KameronKitajima]

As a Japanese American, I loved seeing everyone giving everything a try. Also props to the folks who picked these foods because I’d say these are common foods in Japan but not super common outside of Japan unless you’re Japanese. Also you gotta give the natto with something! You typically eat it over rice as part of breakfast. Eating it straight up is a bit intense.

[@donnazasgoat2274]

I love eating natto with shibazuke! I also love Unadon with picked daikon, shibazuke, and kimchi. Thank goodness I live where I can find such things. I adore Japanese cooking.

[@jessawelle]

“Am I supposed to taste the ocean” 🤣🤣🤣 Ms Lulu is such a vibe ❤

[@Londndvs]

When she ate the spicy ramen she’s like damn the cook was mad huh 🥵

[@madelynlucy1854]

I love the lady in green who talks about seizing opportunity while eating the sushi, I love her outlook I wanna be like her 🥹

[@cerebrumexcrement]

shes so gracious. 🥰

[@darthghengis]

Then be like it

[@gigim.319]

I love the lady who describes the food like “pretty” and “cute” ❤😂

[@noamkagan9019]

she was my favorite one haha

[@gateauxgato]

Good for them, lots of Japanese people don't like natto either! It's usually mixed with other flavors like soy sauce, hot mustard, on top of rice, etc., not eaten by itself. Also I thought it was really cute the ladies trying chopsticks and eating sushi with a fork, it made me smile.

[@mamihashimoto1429]

I am Japanese. All those dishes that the ladies tried didn't look freshly cooked. The takoyaki looks like the frozen takoyaki. Real takoyaki that is freshly cooked is much better. The eels don't taste fishy if it is cleaned and prepared properly. Frozen unagi (Japanese grilled eels) often taste fishy and not as good as unagi you get at a proper unagi restaurant in Japan. Natto isn't eaten just like that. Japanese people add chopped spring onions, Japanese mustard and soy sauce to natto to make it taste better.

[@localmilfchaser6938]

I don’t know what the producers were thinking lol. They’re must be sadistic or something 😂😂😂. Kind of a let down

[@localmilfchaser6938]

Btw why is ur name “mom”?

[@ConstantChaos1]

Yeah the nato was a bit like watching people take bites of Surströmming it's a fermented fish and is meant to be eaten on a flat bread almost taco with boiled potatoes, creamy cheese, herbs and greens, and onion. It's something between a condiment and a protein source but like salt or mustard it isn't something one necessarily wants to eat straight Same with Vegemite too

[@Gaius__]

That was my first thought, too, especially about these sad-looking takoyaki. When they are freshly-made, as street food or festival food, they are fantastic. lol, and whoever gave them natto without anything to go with it is a sadist 😁

[@Maplecook]

「こんなたこ焼き、犬も食べへんやろう！」と思ったんや。（笑）

[@prettyblkgyrl74]

Lulu is such a vibe - I love when she's on an episode 🙌🏾😊🤭

[@localmilfchaser6938]

R u emo?

[@FireyGirl10]

I replayed the natto part many times because it was so funny. You're all mean for not serving it to them with some rice! 😂 Every time I find a tupper of rotten beans in the fridge, I imagine that's how natto must smell like. But I'm used to have bold flavors and smells, what scares me the most is the texture 😅

[@lakotagrywlf]

If you like bleu cheese you might actually like it, very similar flavor, even better when you add the seasons sauces that come with it, usually wasabi, hot mustard or a tangy soy sauce. And served on rice like typical, the texture isn’t as overwhelming.

[@brightwinter9334]

I love the neba neba texture.

[@lakotagrywlf]

@@brightwinter9334 it grew on me, at first I could only have a little bit on a huge scoop of rice, but eventually I came to enjoy the stringy sliminess. It’s interesting how regionally specific some texture preferences are, and yet how completely they can be adopted with enough exposure.

[@brightwinter9334]

@@lakotagrywlf Ikr! I loved it the first time I tried, especially that interesting texture. As for the taste, some brands of natto are more bitter than others, evem with fish sauce and mustard.

[@dianaavalos1299]

The Natto had me dying😂😂😂

[@MamahChannel]

Would you be open to trying it? 😅

[@AvaNightingale]

​​​@@MamahChanneltrying it properly yes! Its like eatin a spoonful of Vegemite or eating 1000 year egg plain! Nobody in those cultures whos soul hasn't left the body long ago does that! People eat Vegemite extremely thinly spread on a piece of buttery toast, often with poached egg or super thinly sliced sharp cheddar! 1000 year eggs are eaten as a condiment, usually chopped into something like congee (rice soup).

[@hypothalapotamus5293]

Fermented soy is good for you. 👺👺👺👺 As for Century eggs, if you eat them in a congee a few times, they're no longer offensive. Then you can eat it in a salad or in slices without issue.

[@chunkyliciousbabeg3695]

I love their honesty. ❤

[@shabella457]

The lady who seemed to be looking for the garbage can as she was describing the natto had me cracking up 😅

[@deilanam9049]

Alma has such a nice vibe.. pls more of her

[@sixtomarquez8468]

I would like to see the mamas reaction to kombucha drinks.

[@MamahChannel]

They've had it! It's titled "Do Mexican Moms Like Kombucha?" ☺️

[@ThatOneBird_8231]

Yessir another Mamah Upload. This always brights up my day.

[@ouranhshc100]

To the mamah that suggested nutella / vanilla custard filling in the taiyaki. Someone please take her to somi somi. Its an ice cream store but they sell taiyaki with those fillings in it.

[@localmilfchaser6938]

Isn’t that Korean tho?

[@donnazasgoat2274]

My grandkids like Nutella in their taiyaki. I bought my son a taiyaki pan that makes 2 at a time. I like matcha cream in mine.

[@marioalonso1977]

“Down like James Brown!” Lulu needs to be on every episode!

[@RaymondHng]

At what point does she say that?

[@trishaporte]

Most o it f you ladies are a good sport when it comes to trying new things! Congratulations!!

[@deechsea]

Some of the moms were complaining the natto had no flavor. Those natto packs usually come with mustard and shoyu to mix in.

[@tiffanygarcia2056]

As a latina who grew up with a Japanese step father I knew what was gonna happen when I saw that Natto lmfao ...you gotta mix it with other stuff.

[@AvaNightingale]

​@AndrewJensen-dx1bpits a loce/hate reaction. Some of us love it! It depends on what you're used to and how adaptable your palate is. I can't stand tripe texturally! We all have our things.

[@xtr.7662]

​By its own its too bitter not even i can stand it i grew up eating it with fish sauce and mustard

[@xtr.7662]

@AndrewJensen-dx1bp all japanese eat it with fish sauce and mustard they both come in the package of the natto showed in the video which is an authentic japanese brand

[@donnazasgoat2274]

I love natto! Yes I add things that aren't typically Japanese so sue me.

[@Dog8myhomework]

That salmon probably wasn’t the best quality.

[@jamalfathoni6198]

i hope they can try Indonesian food next!

[@mokumboi19]

Yes!

[@septianprayoga_]

that's kinda risky, cuz probably indonesian food its pretty rare to find it in America etc, even if you find the indonesian food restaurant, i'm not sure the taste will be authentic🤔i hope they got some good authentic indonesian food restaurant there😔

[@mokumboi19]

@septianprayoga_ They're in Los Angeles, you can find everything there.

[@kaseycameron1408]

Yes try all the sembal

[@kaseycameron1408]

That’s true in Los Angeles it’s easy to find that how I learned Indonesian

[@Yazooicon]

[@wsyvongsa19]

The Natto portion is TAKING ME OUT 😂😂😂

[@daltoncv]

THANK GOD they finally got real about some of these foods lmaooo

[@susandimilo9064]

Haha the natto! It’s controversial even in Japan! My Bachans favourite thing to tell her friends who visit from Japan is that her grandkid (me) loves natto so that’s her proof I’m really Japanese

[@sleepycowboy18]

The green blouse mama is my favourite, she's very descriptive and knowledgeable about food

[@jennifermacgregor872]

I want them to cook a Mexican dish and try each others ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Are you wanting a War?! 😂

"I'm down like James Brown" She is invited to the barbeque!

[@josegodoy4]

Lulu makes these videos x100 better! she's so funny and such a vibe!!

[@cocoanutt27]

When I was in college, the anime club had a natto eating contest. After the contest was over, anyone who wanted to try the leftover natto was welcome to do so. I tried it and immediately said "It tastes like @$$." When our club president said that some people like to eat it with mustard, I gave it a try. One club member asked me, "How does it taste now?" and I replied, "Like @$$ with mustard!"

[@danielsantiagourtado3430]

LOVE this channel and mamahs!🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤

These Queens make me feel like I’m sitting around a kitchen with my mommy and my tias.

Can the producers of the channel please give directions on HOW to properly enjoy a dish!! I think that would help the ladies a ton!

[@nancymcnafferson3192]

Natto was introduced to me by my Japanese roommate as, “You’re not going to like it. Many people in Japan don’t like it either.” 🤣🤣🤣 I did not care for it. Better leave more natto for my friend.

[@user-bx4ti6ig3i]

She can taste the ocean. 😂 Salmon is sweet water fish. 😂

[@MamahChannel]

🤣

[@jaehaspels9607]

No it's not. It's mostly an ocean fish but spawns in streams.

[@Flan67]

As always, ramen makes everyone happy. Together with karaage, it is the dish of choice when I want to introduce an everyday japanese food. Quite surprising that everyone loved sweet beans too.

[@localmilfchaser6938]

That’s like the easiest thing to eat for foreigners. Y’all’s cuisine is very alien ngl

[@Hellios]

i love lulu

[@VeronicaSosa-eq6is]

What about Mexican moms try the most eaten food in each country/or state?

[@law92__]

Alma is so wholesome i love her

[@user-xm5cj5js2d]

I am Japanese. The combination of natto and butter is the best😂

[@khristvnx]

[@JenniferTiana]

Am I supposed to like it?! Ms LuLu won the internet today !

[@cbraypvanguard]

I remembered never liking sushi. Hated it, but started off the fried one before I went to raw sushi and now I can not stop eating the raw sushi and hate eating fried sushi

[@christyroettger1061]

The one mama who gagged had me laughing so hard. She reminds me of my Mexican Mamacita.

[@sactyb]

There’s people that are just comfortable in their own tastes and food world…I’m a southeast Asian man..my foods are spicy with intense flavors…but I was blessed enough to travel to so many places and eat so much foods around the world..and my conclusion is that I don’t have a favorite, I love all kinds of foods.. have a palate for all sorts of foods..blood, guts, I don’t discriminate.. will eat it!!

[@anthonyestevez2399]

Personally, I feel that a lot of Latina mothers - although, this can apply to any people of any race or ethnicity - should be more like Ceci (12:02) when it comes to trying new food. You may not like it but DO FOSTER trying new food, not discourage them. I wanted to laugh when the other moms said no to that question, but it saddens my heart at the same time.

[@addkeifspsdcvl]

Personally, I feel like you might be too sensitive.

[@lakotagrywlf]

I would never eat natto unseasoned and without rice. It’s very (too) strong like a really pungent funky bleu cheese that you want to eat with something else to mellow it out. I love it when done right, umeboshi, or hot mustard, mirin, and soy and on a bed of hot rice to spread out the flavor.

[@Carfan678]

personally Unadon is my favorite japanese dish, i love eel

[@stevenfranks3131]

"Does that look appetizing to you?" "No, it does NOT!" 🤪

[@kimkimsan]

I'd like to see them try Nicaraguan foods, some of which are similar to Mexican foods. I'd especially like to see them try nacatamales. Or do a tamale episode, where they try different tamales from throughout Latin America. (i.e.: Mexican tamales, nacatamales, pasteles de masa, hallacas, etc).

[@Becausing]

I loved the moms that didn't like the natto but were still open to the idea that maybe it could be made better

If I'm not mistaken the dough in takoyaki is the same type of dough you'd use for pancakes or even crepes. Fermented beans is an acquired taste 😂 not all Japanese people like it as well. And there are several ways to eat it rather than eating just by itself)) Btw, all the ladies are absolutely beautiful)) but the one in gray printer blouse made me think of Monica Bellucci ❤

[@hushberger]

“Am I taking the plate?” 😂😂😂hell yes

When you said "takoyaki" I heard taco Yaqui. Yaqui is a pueblo/town in Sonora Mexico.

[@aerialnay]

lol definitely for a Latino taste like ourselves natto is weird af but I learned to love it, with a little bit of soy sauce and sesame oil

[@AlinaNBazan]

I hope they try Cuban food. 🇨🇺

[@stewartviera4774]

They should've also brought Curry! With Katsu ❤

[@Sch2155]

Just a note, natto has different varieties ranging from flavored to nearly no flavor at all and even then it will vary from person to person. It should be eaten with hot rice. It is off putting to most people, but if you add it to a well prepared miso soup it takes away most of the weird smell and texture though it gives the soup “more body?…” is the best way I can describe it.

[@ramprashad29]

Japan and the Japanese people hold a very special place in my heart especially Takeda Shingen.
