I was expecting the odd drink personally I like the idea of a blind vending machine because it makes you try thing a little out of your comfort zone. But I really wasn't expecting something to help you make lunch.

Yeah the salmon and seaweed threw me. Cool though. Adding the salmon to some instant ramen would probably taste good.

Love this, I think some poorer neighborhoods or elderly would benefit from cheaper vending machines

What a great way to use stock approaching the end of its life! Great fun :)

Here in Vermont (USA) too.

These are all over Osaka and I still wonder how they make money. I think I tried the 30 yen mystery drink when I went there in 2016 and got a can of coffee worth around 100 yen.

those were probably just wasn't sold so instead of throwing it away they just resell it at the lowest price

I know in the US that some people get confused. Things like Dairy and such have an Expiration date on them as they deteriorate quickly . While things like Bottled Tea, Soft drinks, sports drinks and food with a shelf life have a Best By date because that's when they are at their absolute limit for being legally called fresh quality but are perfectly fine for a long time afterwards, though the quality of taste has diminished or the ingredients have separated and settled (fixed with a quick shake or mix). Is this the same in Japan, or are they all Expiration?

The correct term is best-by date. It is the same in Japan as in the U.S. But I didn't know how to say "best-by date", so I wrote "expiration date" by mistake.

Flaked salmon and jar of seaweed was definitely a surprise!

Flaked salmon and that seaweed stuff is delish. Time for onigiri!

"Buying it from a regular vending machine would've cost twice as much..." Not if you consider the fact you didn't want to buy any of that.

Totally agree. You end up with a load of stuff that you never really want or like. But it certainly helps to serve as a warning 👍

I really liked the containers that the salmon,seaweed and mask came with. Normally things with these types of containers are still pricey even near expiration date

I've found you from TikTok and your vid are great, keep it up 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏼

I could see the flaked salmon being really good in a seafood flavored instant ramen. I wonder if doing that is a thing in Japan or if its always in rice bowls.

that was fun to watch.

Just ‘subbed. Liked and left this comment.

I wish we had those kind of vending machines here in Vermont (USA).

This seems like something you'd find in a Yakuza game. Every time you hit the button I expected to hear the "got item" sound

I don’t care what comes out it’s still a cool idea.

Do the vendors use the mystery vending machines as a way to sell extra inventory at a discount?

what is that COVID antigen ?? I'd love to buy some of those

Why would they put Chinese characters on the Japanese bending machine Are you sure

I would like to say this was interesting. But you got exactly what i was expecting....cheap stuff that was near the end of it's shelf life, that you never really wanted anyway. But i was at least slightly amused by the abundance of Lemon tea drinks (which i can't stand). Hopefully there will also be a cheap trash can nearby 🗑. Thank you so much for posting this video on how to waste money 👍

It was March when I shot the video, so I didn't have any expired stuff. But it was definitely a lot of stuff I didn't need lol. I guess I won't go back next time. Thanks for the comment.

Never met such low price product

Kinda nice if you need to be careful not to spent to much ... at least with the drinks, the food wouldn't be for me so it would have just been wasted. In my country there are shops specialized in selling products that are shortly before or even after the best before and I often buy there as its usually always still very edible and much cheaper. Of course I wouldn't buy everything after its best before but especially dried stuff or drinks usually don't get bad as long as its not opened.

We had a “mystery vending machine” at the gas station when I was younger. For 25 cents you got an unknown snack, candy bar, toy ,??? It was all past date stuff he pulled from other machines. But nothing like you show. 😀

The people who run those vending machines must buy the stuff in bulk and really cheap.

Flaked salmon is very good over rice.

i would just get a 1000 yens in 10 yens and clean out that machine, get the 50 yens drink for 10 yens and sell them for 30 yens and make bank. Just kidding, but would be great to use maybe 100 yens and stock up on those 10 yens items, they are cool.

Please. White is an EXTREMELY bad color for your c.c.. it blends in with a lot of things that are white also, making it hard to read.
