Would You Eat This? Singaporean Flatmates Try Japanese NATTO Beans🤢

[@jokesuffer]

you know your flatmates are good people when they are supportive and friendly toward you and your culture

[@Ianovich22]

The auntie damn cute lmao

[@yusux]

Especially because they are actually your family LOL

[@michellekoh5575]

Yah now we realised its actually his mother in law and wife hahaha

[@phng8316]

When you crack the egg and stir mix together with spring onion..the next thing comes into my mind is to pour into the heated pan and fried it...😁😂

[@miso4979]

That is also delicious🤭Some japanese do that.We say it「natto tamagoyaki」🐣

[@haruchandes2850]

lol that was my exact thought as well

[@akoj3262]

Ya I don’t dare to think liked that. Toooooooo wet

[@zanegamingtv2252]

I'm sure it'll taste heavenly

[@CornerBookmarks]

I love watching the reaction and commentary of your landlord auntie. She makes me laugh all the time, she's just so genuine and lovable, I think I'm becoming one of her fans! Hahaha! I love it whenever she appears. And yeah, you're right, it would be perfect if there's Japanese rice to go with the natto cuz that's the perfect combination.

[@amamikaz]

absolutely. I think there needs to be "10 Things Auntie Says" video.

[@catcatcat9055]

Now reviewing his previous videos that include his “ landlord and flat mate” will have different meanings and feel:)

[@jas.k7180]

that’s the first thing i did too

[@shuwenyang3228]

喜喜 sticker on the wall 😍

[@neverendingchan7878]

well you hit the bullseye.

[@suppress2223]

Very glad that Singaporean like natto!!! from Japan

[@johnlee5405]

Little did we know, this was a family bonding session. >.

[@m0000kie]

"Overpriced green onions, overpriced natto" Yeah, prices were much lower at Donki when they opened their first outlet at Orchard Central. For example, Frugra would cost $5.90-$7.90, now it goes for $9.90-$13.90. Same for other japanese snacks/food items. Donki's first 6 months lived up to it's reputation as a discount chain store, now it feels more like a japanese themed supermarket with similar pricing to CS/NTUC.

[@ctrlzme.6448]

Lol just go sheng siong can liao

[@Sky-8646]

Sheng siong doesn’t sell high end grocery..

[@AbangDrone]

frugra is the best man. but its always sold out

[@vijay20]

rich people problems.

[@cynthialee3228]

Precisely....

[@BlueStarberryAKTF]

i love landlord auntie she’s so funny!!

[@BlueStarberryAKTF]

*mother-in-law! i stand corrected ;)

[@miraclegirl90]

Your landlord and family are really nice people! You are really lucky 😄 loving the food taste videos!

[@minnwong3004]

Landlord : Eehhh, ehhhh.... Feels like am eating mucus Ghib San: 😑 so direct

[@cheeweistephenlim8372]

The mum is a joker,so hairy ,like macus,wah sia.hehe

[@catechin29]

Singaporeans are like that, we don't mean to hurt feelings... just that our filtering system not as good as others :) On a side note, Ghib san also remarked we are used to smelly food, like durians.. so.... hahaha..

[@lumi5056]

lala nah i dont like the smell of smelly tofu. They smell like the sewer

[@obiwan88]

I like the Japanese kanji translation of "so direct" -> 直球, literally 'straight ball', probably from baseball lingo. :-)

[@SingaporeRealEstateHiFi]

Your landlord auntie is the new star of your video. She is so genuine and real

[@marktan8074]

A useful suggestion for you. In future when you introduce more japanese foods to foreign audience, do research a bit on their health benefits or origins etc. For this episode on natto, you could tell us for example all the health benefits of eating natto e.g. promotes healthy skin, lowers cholesterol n blood pressure etc. This way, people will come to appreciate this Japanese breakfast staple even more.😘😘

[@TheSimlol]

Why is everyone standing while eating tho

[@palmtree_]

Act natural, he said

[@supreme87878]

And japanese do stand to eat at outlets. 😂

[@kaminoyami5776]

Helps digestion 😂

[@ぼぶ-l7i]

Kami No Yami No way😂

[@shezoomin]

I LOVE NATTO!!!!! Thanks for the recipe on adding seaweed, raw egg n spring onions into the natto, cant wait to try it next time!

[@erlinliang]

Hi Ghib, I've been loving your videos but I particularly LOVE this the most. I hope you can do more videos on Japanese food (or non food) products for your Singapore audience as these products don't usually come with English explanation.

[@erlinliang]

And hopefully Donki can even sponsor your videos.

[@iwannabuyplants2819]

Love ur auntie landlord! Direct and speaks her mind but has absolutely no ill intention or offense and game for everything :D also noticed how this CB and Post CB seemed to have drawn u n the flatmates closer and u get new video content! Win win

[@cafedandy888]

Didn't enjoy natto at first but when I mixed it with rice and soy sauce... I got hooked! Gotta get used to the sliminess, like, tororo yam on rice, too!

[@asuner333]

i had never seen anyone describe natto as "mucus" LOL

[@MeganizersForever]

shes not wrong tho HAHA

[@javier6465]

There's always a first for everything. Now you have. hahah

[@kaminoyami5776]

But the good kind of mucus

[@JeremyTanTinyRedMan]

Who's here after watching his marriage announcement video?

[@kayIins]

yup LOL

[@clayping6082]

Tried natto before, was disgusted, but after seeing how it can be eaten in different ways, am encouraged to give it another try. Thanks a lot!

[@leonthesleepy]

same....i didnt enjoy it

[@j.p7311]

love the owner of the house they are soo livelyyy

[@JonGirsang]

You know it's Japanese channel, when there's pixelated part in the video. 😂

[@miso4979]

混ぜることによって旨味も増すそうです😋 1番美味しくなる回数は400回とも言われています🤭腕が疲れる…💪 Mixing natto also increases the umami😋 It is said that the most delicious times are 400🤭

[@Levi-di1pw]

Sugoi desu xD

[@joshuakoh1291]

Thx for the tip

[@phng8316]

Look like the Slime that my child use to make and play....no thanks..you can have it..😁😰 U really got a lovely and supportive landlord..👍👏

[@donovanfoo9285]

You make natto looked so delicious. Keep up the good job in your video!😊

[@jalapenlo]

so happy they love it

[@lilliesim]

You make me feel like getting it from Donki now!

[@julietlim4831]

Me too

[@Im-fq1mn]

do do do donki🐧🎅

[@samuelwong1596]

Looking gd with the haircut! 👍🏻 Loving natto~

[@widetech]

Japanese specialty market is really expensive. All of those import costs.

[@yoyoma3572]

Oiishi!! I love natto too! It’s really heathy. Thanks for showing us different ways to enjoy it. 🙌

[@SimplyClaire]

Love NATTO!!! 😋 will give the natto kimchi version next time! Oh and usually local (SG) aunties don’t really have good filter and can be quite brutal when dishing out their opinions.

[@kelvgan]

Wow! Never heard! New to me! Unusual! Next time my turn! Thanks for sharing!!!

[@richardleewz]

Ghib-san, thank you for making this video! I've always wanted to try natto, but I've never known how to go about eating it! Will definitely try it after phase 2 starts!

[@brandnyuday]

Singaporean here but I love love Natto. Put them on top of rice and topped with a raw egg and soy sauce. Yumssss.

[@Sbproject2]

You look much younger with your new hair cut. You should try Chinese fermented beancurd which is usually eaten together with porridge or used to fry Kang kong 空心菜( a type of common , cheap vegetables ）Please try the century egg with pickled ginger. Century eggs are duck eggs preserved with some alkaline substances so they are usually eaten with pickled ginger to neutralise the alkalinity.

[@lowhuiphing]

Thanks for teaching us other ways of eating natto. We love to eat natto.

[@etvirgo]

I like my natto with 生卵、キムチ, spring onions , ladies fingers 🥰👍🏼 Actually you could get cheaper spring onions at Sheng Siong 😅

[@ryanyeo5344]

You’re housemates are definitely enjoying their time with u!

[@vickykoh5589]

We have something similar in Southeast Asia. It is called tempeh. Fermented soy bean.

[@a-un7952]

最近欧米人でも意外と食べれるとか、熱狂的な愛好家もいるみたいです。世界的な和食ブームの影響で抵抗感が下がってるってのもあるでしょうが、日本でも若い世代ほど高い割合で納豆好きが多いらしく、納豆には元々人を惹きつける魅力があるのではないかなと思いました。 10年後にはチーズみたいな世界的な定番発酵食品になっているかもしれませんね。

[@Semarngiseng]

I love the neba neba texture of natto.

[@beoneofus]

Eating your favorite food again from a foreign land after so many months really excites your taste buds. 👍👍👍 Euphoria feeling to be exact. 😁😁😁 Nice content Ghib Ojisan! 👌👌👌👌👌

[@bryanwonghong]

Really love your videos and really getting me to try natto with all those interesting combinations!!! Keep it up !!!

[@piano_beginner]

炊きたてのホカホカご飯にフワッと乗っけて軽く混ぜ、実食…。 最高ですね(↑孤独のグルメ風？笑)

[@thattragedy]

I tried natto a few times. Its like durian, you either love it or avoid it. For me I couldn't get used to the texture and smell

[@Nicky-yh4ul]

納豆の蓋綺麗にあけてる… すご笑

[@dannysoh9467]

Natto is awesome! we normally get served this during breakfast in Japan

[@kaori8441]

はじめまして。楽しく見させてもらっています！ 納豆、シンガポール人にも意外と受け入れられてて嬉しいです★

[@theworst5820]

My dad's from Japan too, he really really likes Natto and eats it almost every week. One day he convinced me to try Natto for the first time, it's tasted super bitter to me lol. I thought it would taste something like cheese. Thanks for showing different ways to eat it I might try it again. He's likes to buy the kirei brand of Natto and Nyatto the one with a cat on it. By the way you can buy Natto from Isetan it's much cheaper and has more options!

[@500ncb]

you should try our chinese fermented beancurd "tau zoo" :D

[@jingxianchua]

I went to get a pack after watching. And I loved it! Went to get another pack of 3. And thinking if I should make it on my own. The expiry dates in Singapore's imported natty is very short! Great recommendation. Thank you.

[@mmina5549]

ドリアンや納豆、ちょっと癖のある食材チャレンジ編おもしろいです!!　正直な感想が聞けるのもいいですね!!

[@SeanJunYanLiew]

Really Love eating it during my japan trip... early morning combi food

[@scorpio573]

I love natto charhan(fried rice)!! I love somen Tashiya and somen chanpuru and saba miso and Syoga Yaki. Abrupt ending to this video. And no " Jipun lang zhao liao".

[@lerocksteady9252]

For first timers eating natto, it may be easier if eaten together with Japanese rice. I ate natto for the first two breakfasts of my Hokkaido holiday last year. It's ok but not something I want everyday and skipped it for the rest of the trip 😁. Raw egg mixed with hot steaming gohan is oishi and I ate it whenever available 😋

[@miyuki3543]

家主さん出てくるとホッコリします😌家主さんのチャンネルあるなら登録したいくらい笑

[@thereisnoaddress]

Wow, I remember when I was taking Japanese classes in high school and our sensei brought us natto for us to try. I smelled it and had the same reaction as the Singaporean auntie ("eww") and was told that it's an insult to Japanese people to say natto was bad hahah.

[@alkabnd]

I love natto but I don't think I dare to eat it when it's mixed with a raw egg.

[@paecpc]

Nato is delicious! I always buy a lot and put them in the freezer, microwave it when I want to eat them and have it together with my white rice, shiok!!

[@3XL_T_SHIRTS]

トッピング色々混ぜれば混ぜるほど美味くなる納豆という謎の食材。

[@flyhoyun]

Great video. Thanks for upload

[@aliciatung5059]

omg the extra strong Singlish from Singaporeans tho HAHAHA im a SGean too

[@Mar-ec7et]

natto looks like good side dish for porridge. Local porridge shops has lot of salted, fermented side dishes with porridge. Remember to check out canned food peanuts which local eat it with porridge. Looks abit like it but natto is more slimey.

[@blueflame86]

As a Singaporean staying in Ibaraki, I actually love natto. First try was bad, but after the second and third, it was fantastic. However, I gotta avoid it in summer. The bacteria is too strong for my stomach. Also, I prefer to eat it at dinner than at breakfast... Something for you to try: tempeh it is a south-east asian fermented soya bean. you can get it in the markets!

[@yukikosg]

I like to put a pickled dried plum(umeboshi) in Natto. I want you to try the way!!!

[@ashleyeidein4923]

The Singapore Malay version of natto is "tempeh", where the process is somewhat similar. Please do find out what it is and how its made.

[@prettycatmint4514]

From SG and love natto. I buy in bulk from Meidi Ya whenever I visit as they have a wide selection to choose from.

[@keithrandall8556]

yay a new video !!

[@mp-yy2lj]

右の女性は、納豆をコーヒーに例えるとは！とても感性の高い方ですね😆 そして家主さんは鼻水！(笑)ある意味歯に衣着せぬ、カジュアルな家主さんらしい感想にほっこりしました😂

[@luvsjeanette]

You should hit up places like Fish Mart Sakuraya or J-mart the next time you want to get natto as they actually sell natto at around $2.80 for a pack of 3 (albeit not okame natto). Also, Japanese veggies have actually gotten a lot more affordable as compared to the past as a bunch of veggie could go for as high as $10 at Isetan.

[@markleng6383]

Huat ah jippun lang lai liao

[@seebist]

when i was in japan with my mum, we bought natto sushi from the supermarket not realising what it was. didnt have a good experience with the sushi but after watching this video i might give it another try haha

[@zakeibc]

I like Donki's produce, the quality is great and the price point is amazing compared to larger department store pricing. I would try the last recipe!

[@meat_loves_wasabi]

Love Donki..just wish they play Japanese songs more frequently instead of their own theme song. 1st time I tried Natto was at Toriki in Shinagawa... the Chef said it was his wife’s favourite and asked us to try...taste is ok la only the slimy texture

[@darkraiisdaddy1389]

Mix it with kimchi, add to a bed of rice with green onions sprinkled on top and a side of caramalized pak choi and garlic.

[@shaunng8976]

You can opt for groceries at wet market. They sell really cheap, as compared to donki

[@dessimtk]

Ghib San natto oiishi Lah... 😋 I think most Singaporean are fine with it.

[@cls7824]

Ahh!!! You made me want to try it too!!! Will go don don donki to get some. 😀

[@kamamotoyuka]

I usually enjoy it with cold soba noodles! I haven’t thought to try it with kimchi, can’t wait to try that now! :)

[@simplicity_veg]

I love natto with rice, sometimes with tamago kake gohan

[@谷口直子-c5f]

納豆高いですね。日本の安いお店だと６０円位で買えます。ジブさんネギ切るのお上手ですね。😀

[@julietlim4831]

Cant wait to try

[@psoon04286]

My friend, you tried durian with an open mind and enjoyed the experience, so I’m not going to be outdone. Im going out for my first Japanese fermented beans concoction. I’ll use 2 packs of the Natto with one egg😊

[@user-hz6yg6mf3o]

Me too...recently came across Natto Going to Don Donki to get it ... Can't wait to savor Natto.

[@zakeibc]

Me too! Probably on a steaming hot bed of Japanese rice! 🍚😆

[@godsamazinggrace5331]

the marriage double blessing Chinese character on the wall so wife and mother in law not landlady and flatmate! lol

[@aloysiuseng8086]

Last time I just had plain natto with rice.. Not bad, needed some spice to go with it .. Cheers!

[@dbr8099]

Hey Ghib, try out Petai, malay spicy stinky beans!

[@cybil3987]

Never crossed my mind about the mucus bit xD just thought it was very similar to string cheese. I tried natto once before but didnt like it. But the kimchi and egg one looks so gooooood

[@limamy741]

Thanks for sharing such interesting ways to eat natto. I tried natto nigiri before and don’t like it. 🤢 Natto is really good for health and I think am gonna give natto another try using your recommended recipes. 😜

[@addherre6218]

Oh, that's what it's called. I watched a youtube video about a japanese family daily life. And they had this for breakfast... looks yum. I hope to try it. Looks nutritious ❤❤

[@koji4956]

I love Natto alot with rice . I love Yamaimo even more on rice .

[@jay_chang]

Actually natto feels very similar to Indonesian Tempeh, both fermented soya bean, it is very common food from Indian stall That is like a slab of natto fried in oil. Usually it is better taste to stir fry Tempeh in chilli sauce. Singaporean Chinese have habit of eating porridge with fermented foods like Fermented spicy black soya bean, fried with tofu or minced meat. Fermented tofu, salted duck egg, century egg with vinegar ginger, olive vegetables. Some feels a bit like Japanese pickled vegetables. The mixing in egg and spring onion really feels like dropping the mixture into frying pan And it will be a omelette that kind of resembles carrot cake dish.

[@jollyfish31]

I love natto so much. I made my dad tried it previously, he was disgusted at first but fell in love with it after. Now I have a competitor at home :')

[@dvsmaverick]

i tried to eat natto on 2 occasions and it failed miserably. Lol, I might give it another shot though.

[@dennistani1986]

Ghib, I get it when you say the Japanese don't think of it as string mucus. When we Americans eat pizza and see that the stringy cheese, we don\'t think, wow, that looks like mucus. We just eat it.

[@anna_wong]

Ghib san, can you teach us the correct way to eat sashimi and sushi, together with wasabi and soy sauce? Most Singaporeans just mix wasabi and soy sauce together.

[@lovery6878]

納豆の食べ方、テッパンですよね〜🥰 私もキムチ納豆大好きです🤗そしてパックのまま食べます笑 ご飯が欲しくなりますね！ シンガポーリアンのお2人とも食べた感想が好評価で驚きました‼️ ドリアンと同じで好きか嫌いかはっきり分かれるでしょうね😙 　 ◎ニューヘアスタイル、スタイリングしてるんでしょうか。オシャレですよ〜🤗

[@ktee6370]

Is that a faulty tap in the kitchen? Get it fixed to avoid wasting water 😄 Your landlord - I was waiting for her to say "wah lau" - is an interesting person. My mother would never allow us to say such things about food :(
