Hello! I’m Japanese. As of July 2022, that curry is still sold for 300yen. and yes, Mr.Yoshimoto-san continues this work with his wife. now he is around 80. even Japanese “wow” no doubt he loves his job and people. here’s my rough translation of an interview article with Yoshimoto-san in the Tokushima Shimbun news paper. Mr.Yoshimoto, who was once a truck driver as well as a rice farmer, often used the rest-stops in another Town. one day he began to wish he could open a similar resting place in his home town to please other truck drivers. (At that time, 24h open stores which can serve foods was rare in the area.) After that, in 1982, he filled a part of his rice paddy field and opened "Coin Snack Gosho 24".

Very nice eye on that. Let me put you in on one I might have caught. I love film no matter from where. I like Japanese movies and of course anime and after more than a decade of watching other cultures Ive gotten to learn how to pick up the structure of a sentence or what they're saying as well as inflections; You're right the cinematography was nicely done, guerilla style. I liked the close up shot of the guys face in the early part of the video, cause it showed his cheerful eyes. The golly disposition was further enumerated by his slight absentmindedness of his age. 0:45 nanajuu is 70, he got stuck on his age and yon is 5, ka is established or "am I". Guy is so enjoying being in his own world, he doesnt care about death and doesnt recall his own age. It was funny when I caught that...I wouldnt mind that outcome for myself when I'm older lol

Japan's use of vending machines is pretty smart, especially in this man's case. It would be more expensive and consume more space if he started a restaurant. Even if he sold the curry and rice at a stand, he would have to man the stand himself, or pay somebody to do it. This is a cool idea.

I've been to many Japanese curry restaurants, cooked curry countless times, and love the shit out of it. If you look into how it's made, it's not surprising how the taste is very, very, very similar across every avenue it is served. I'm not trashing it. I'm actually a big fan of it. But it is what it is.

@nysa7861

6 жыл бұрын

dxc The reason why most would want to even visit to buy from that particular vending machine is due to the fact that unlike the curry you get in restaurants or those instant curry, the curry from the vending machine is made by a 70 year old man, who works hard making a living off of the machine, making sure its not a harden/dry rice by refilling it twice a day, and uses his own rice that he also spent time caring for to make that curry. Yes the curry from restaurants and the instant curry does have the same/similar process at the curry in the vending machine, but to show appreciation for this man who spends the time and is dedicated to this, people would want to visit. Yes, you should also show gratitude to others who work just as hard to produce things we use, but the ethical appeal in this scenario is the main focus.

Imagine all the people who are able to eat proper meals because of this man and not crappy vending/ unhealthy food.
