We Ate ALL the Onigiri from the Japanese Convenience Store ft.

[@TokyoCreativePlay]

How many onigiri could you eat in one sitting? Which flavour was your favourite and least favourite? 🍙

[@HarlekinEO]

I think I would go with the salted rice. I can feel you, I had my times with rice going two time through my head. Not pleasant.

[@TheFallenFaob]

If only she had given that first one 7 out of 11

[@LadyTarasque]

probably a lot lol ^^; bought two once, meant to save one for later.. i ate that one too. And could have still had at least a third. I've pretty much loved every one I got, but that's cause I knew what I wouldn't like.. be hard to pick one o-o but to name something different than usual tuna/salmon mayo yada yada.. loco moco. I found that one in a supermarket o-o I wouldn't touch anything that's sour/pickled or bitter.. or have natto.. or wasabi..

[@emilyerdbeer3679]

My favorite one is Mentaiko. 😅 I'm so envious because it's nearly impossible to get it in Germany. Tuna w/ Kewpie is also good but Mentaiko is much much better 🤤 Natto indeed is disgusting!

[@brandeni1785]

Let’s do the same video but with one foreign TC member and one Japanese TC member. I’m guessing some of these flavors are more suited for Japanese people.

[@auluadenbartolli6755]

Yo, this Chris Broad guy is so affable. I think he could become really big on youtube one day. It's really nice to see Tokyo Creative reaching out to and providing opportunities for small youtubers like him. I hope he ends up doing something cool, like cycling across all of japan, visiting all of the prefectures, or going to a haunted love hotel with a welshman that runs away from deer.

[@Kakube]

I am Japanese. Onigiri, which recently comes in various variations, is originally a food where you enjoy the "rice flavor" with a small amount of strongly seasoned ingredients. There are also shio-musubi(salted onigiri) made with only salt. It's a bit different from sandwiches or hamburgers. Umeboshi(Salted plum) onigiri is soul food for Japanese people. Mentaiko(cod roe) is also highly favored by Japanese people as a very basic onigiri ingredient.

[@Strider_Shinryu]

Chris seems almost suspiciously aware of what it would look like if you stick your finger in a blender and then put it in rice. Then again, after watching that last cooking video with him, maybe I shouldn't be surprised xP

[@LaNoir.]

I know you all hated the sour plum but I would love that, and the inarizushi one with ginger as well. Watching Chris and Emma hang out always brightens my day, so thank you for another great video!

[@LePetitNuageGris]

I totally agree. I feel like I’d probably find most of these at least decent (except the mentaiko… I’ve already had that at my local Japanese grocer, and it… it’s not for me). But yeah, I was surprised they hated almost everything. Lol I literally do wake up in the morning and crave umeboshi and red shiso. I make my ochazuke with it. I’m glad he liked the inari version, at least.

Actually a really handy episode. I have my usual Onigrii faves, but now I get to vicariously explore the rest--thanks guys!

[@kyounokirei]

Ebi mayo, tuna mayo, and teriyaki chicken are usually my go-to flavours🥰 I also find things like egg, pork, beef, cooked or smoked fish, and vegetable varieties pretty good❤ I can't stand fish eggs, or raw fish onigiri😒

[@lizthedisjointedzebra692]

I miss onigiri!! Man, we feasted when we lived in Japan lol. We would go to 7eleven with 1,000 yen, grab a few salmon onigiri, cheese Doritos(I think they were a queso flavor??) and CC Lemon, and maybe a dorayaki, and go to the park for a picnic. This made me miss Japan hahahahah.

[@specialk9999]

It’s funny that the tuna one actually says chicken of the sea. Chicken of the sea is just a brand name of the tuna. Natto is definitely not for everyone. Umeboshi and Unagi are my favorite ones.

[@srmedia91]

For anyone who want to replicate these challenges without being stressed, or full from eating all on one go, and messes with the score, try making a tier list, eat two once a day, restrain from comparing with others that you eaten before.

[@mahumia]

They look so awesome indeed! Not even the toko have them :( Than again, it would most likely just taste like disappointment, just like the supermarket sushi they have over here...

[@Fearinox]

There are definitely places in Amsterdam that sell them, like OnigiriYa. Also the Amazing Oriental has them.

[@stefaniehase2448]

We actually tried most of them when we went to Japan this October. ☺️🍙 My husband and I liked tuna mayo the most and the only one we didn’t like was the one with plum. Our one year old absolutely fell in love with spicy cod roe and devoured one after another. 😂👌🏻

"Shit on traditional Japanese flavors for a half hour". 😅 For the ones with a really strong filling, the process is to take small nibbles at the center and eat it with more of the surrounding rice. You can control the mix with your bites. That's how I ate umeboshi onigiri when I was a kid, although when I was older, I started eating them plain when my mother would have them.

Mentaiko is my favorite flavor. Definitely, a must-try before you judge.

[@LePetitNuageGris]

Can you explain to me why you like it? I really don’t, but I’m always trying to see if I can change my palate and bring it around to like most (if not all) things. Worked for cilantro. Anyway, might help if I had the perspective of someone who loves it. What is it? Texture, flavour? Get as detailed as you can, if you don’t mind. I’d genuinely love to hear it described.

[@Jeff-fo3ck]

@@LePetitNuageGris you don't have to like it. But the reason why I like it is because it has a spicy and salty taste that balances really well with rice. Regarding texture, It just melts in your mouth tbh. IDK how to properly explain it sorry. If you don't like it but want to like it. You can buy the store bought mentaiko and control how much you put on rice or the onigiri. And see if you learn to like it from there.

[@Zorayas]

The new, limited Pokémon onigiri they have at 7-Eleven are actually really delicious. I’ve tried the great ball and ultraball so far.

I'd just like to point out that Emma's ear rings are ultra-cute. I've had onigiri exactly once, I believe the filling was bonito flakes and, uhh... some other stuff. It was delicious. Some of the types you tried here today, I would not even consider, such as the mentaiko. Thank you for suffering through this, so we don't have to.

I wonder if what you had was bonito and kelp (kombu)? Sometimes you can use the leftover from making dashi stick to make a filling for onigiri, or so I believe.

lmao I'm japanese and I love all the ones they hate: mentaiko, ume, natto... mentaiko is a delicacy! in general, I don't recommend the long cylindrical ones because the content is usually minced or blended and it doesn't taste great. I recommend any of the triangle ones with the seaweed and rice being separated with plastic. The fresh crispy seaweed tastes great. but if you're visiting don't waste a meal on this stuff (unless you're on a time crunch) - go to any restaurant!
