Same! I'm 40 and was always so jealous of the Sanrio items my friends had as I loved Hello Kitty and Chococat, when my kids were younger I used to buy them all sorts of Sanrio stuff. My daughter is 18 now and buys me Hello Kitty stuff all the time now 😂

Loved this video!! Please do more Costco videos! I was so happy seeing you upload today 💜🦋💕💕💕

Yes!! More Costco review videos. Love how you review the products!

I saw the hello kitty noddles and the boba mochi! Ty so much!

Haha omg when I was in elementary school, so many of my classmates would eat those uncooked crushed ramen packets using the mama noodles brand! I remember a friend let me try it, and it was so good. I told my parents if they could get me a packet, but they told me not to eat them because it’s unhealthy and full of sodium! You can say that traumatized me because to this day, I still haven’t eaten uncooked crushed ramen 😂😂

Loving this Costco series (in addition to all your other videos) so I would love to see another! Have you done any instant ramen taste test videos? It’ll be nice to taste test different flavors (miso, shoyu, udon)

These are my favorite videos of yours! Later on in watching- damn those are some good looking ribs for out of a microwave!

I love boba٫mochi٫and Ramen or noodles so much 🤤👌💖Oh and sponge cake too

Thank you for sharing this info!! Much appreciated!

Thanks for posting we all missed you 😊😊😊😊

The kasutera cake looks much more like the traditional type. The jiggly type is relatively new (at least in my memory). The one you have there that is more cakey is exactly how I remember it with the amazing brown carmelization of the sugar on the crust. So good!

I tried the hello kitty noodles and I love to add spicy sauces to them. Also I got the egg rolls before and I love them! Both of them are amazing!

Your videos are really good love hello kitty all my life

never seen you before but i love your personality. definitely will continue watching you youre so sweet

Your vids always make me laugh for no reason... I love youu

In hawaii, the raw ramen packet as a snack is forbidden at school to bring and I've been literally eating that these past few weeks. So yes, I still do it. Also, love to see mama meimei! Also, props to your editing skills. You really put in a lot of work with a lot of info. You do such a great job! When the beef jerky is so soft, I can literally eat that as a meal with rice

Just found your channel and I find myself binge watching for some reason, haha! If I had to pick one type of food to have for the rest of my life, it would be Asian foods hands down. But I'm also very clean-ingredients oriented so I wouldn't eat 99% of these Costco things you try but I have to watch 🙈 All that said.. as southern Americans.. I definitely also crunched up my ramen and ate it crunchy with the seasoning, haha. ❤

I love seeing everyone of all ages embracing their love of Hello Kitty in the comment section 💕

You're lucky you guys have quite a bit of Asian foods at your Costcos. We rarely have Asian foods. The tonkatsu is one of my favs and the boba Mochi is addicting I can't have just one 😂 I loved Hello Kitty as a kid and still love them now in my 50's...

The ramen noodle snack is so cute!😍

Nice 👌👌👌 looks so delicious😋my mouth is watering🤤🤤🤤 Always good to watch your newest video! Keep your good content flowing! Enjoy your day! ❤️

I never ate the ramen out of the packet like that but my daughters LOVED to do so when they were in Middle School. I like eating sweet snacks with unsweet tea, and I love Castella.

i remember first watching your video during quarantine days. now im here binge watching all your videos :))

Love seeing Costco hauls + taste tests. They used to have gimmari at my Costco, but got rid of them a while ago. Sad times , they will probably move a lot of these products off the shelf after a while.

Hawaii local here! Spicy Ahi (and shoyu) poke are also found at the Costco's in Hawaii and other local grocery stores (fyi spicy ahi is one of the Hawaii local's favorite flavor of poke ;) ) At least for the Costco's here, they use fresh ahi which is why it's quite expensive ($19/lb) but definitely still the authentic poke and not that other fake poke sold on the mainland (Continental US) that uses edamame, corn, etc. and it's not even mixed! lol

15:37 the ones on the plate are egg rolls (since the egg is usually mixed into the batter as well as brushed on top for the golden brown color). And then spring rolls are made with rice paper (:

Chococat is my favorite of the Sanrio clan and I rarely see him so I was excited that he is on the noodles. Ah, the simple pleasures in life.

15:32 i call them spring roll and the one with rice paper is call summer roll. In the east coast egg roll is usually bigger and have a deep fried bubbly outer shell as compared to a spring roll which have a smoother shell. I only saw egg roll in chinese take out restaurant.

We have a similar snack to the ramen snack in Korea called 'smash it smash it' it has a variety of flavours you can choose! Im pretty sure youd like the bbq one as its one of my favs!

In Quebec, Canada, we also used to eat ramen noodles not cooked with the seasoning in the 90's, as a snack at school! Or dried uncooked macaronis xD. And for the " spring rolls ", like these you call egg rolls, in french we call them « rouleaux impériaux », wich means Royal or imperial rolls.

I loved snacking on dried noodles, sans seasoning, but my mom wouldn't let me eat it "uncooked" haha. I always take a few bites b4 cooking them. Mmm poke. Our Costco is just starting to carry more variety, which I appreciate.

OMG yes! The spring rolls I'm used to are the rice wrapper ones and the egg rolls are those golden fried ones. A white boy tried to argue with me that the golden fried ones are spring rolls. I mean everyone's probably got different perspective by where and how they name their food, but I totally I agree with you.

Love these videos! Unfortunately, we don’t have most of these products in Austin, Texas Costco’s. I would love to try the old boba that your mom liked.

i love the tonkatsu ramen omgg also if you let it sit for awhile the noodles actually absorb the broth and it’s even better

I grew up in Santa Cruz and I fondly remember when my mom would take us all to the beach (siblings and cousins) our lunches often would be Crushed up ramen with the seasoning packet! That goes back about 30 years also cinnamon sugar toast! My kids love it now too. 😂

I really like the Dongwon Rapokki Traditional Korean Rice Cake and Ramen with Spicy Sauce from Costco. It was my first time trying rice cake and it was so good.

Taiwanese castella is very likely a borrowed item from japanese washoku, western influenced Japanese cuisine. The castella you have here is the Japanese one and is typically quite sweet, the texture is also normal for it and still is sponge cake as opposed to creamed butter cake. Taiwanese castella is made with a souffle technique and is therefore going to look taste and feel entirely different. Also the rolls, the ones shown as spring rolls in the photo inserts seem more like Vietnamese summer rolls.

Omg same XD Literally every time I see anything Hello Kitty/Sanrio want to buy it 😂 I still have not out grown my Hello Kitty phase and I'm fine with that 😌

If you’re ever in SJ Japantown check out Classic Loot. They have a lot of Sanrio accessories and cute things I haven’t seen since childhood.

I feel like the castella cake would taste so good as the base for a strawberry shortcake!!

Hi Mei Mei!

I call those little ones spring rolls. Maybe it’s a East Coast thing? The rule of thumb at restaurants near me is usually: egg rolls=large crispy fried rolls with a dark bubbly outer shell filled with cabbage and a meat at least, spring rolls=small fried rolls with a light smooth crispy shell and only vegetable filing (what vegetarians can order), and fresh/summer rolls=rice paper wrapped rolls with fresh vegetables and protein of your choice

The Golden Island jerky has a new jerky nuggies, I seen them at Costco the other day but forgot to buy them. My favorite jerky👌. Costco also had this Tonkotsu miso ramen, but they don't sell it any more at my Costco (central valley native) literally so fire😘👌

I think I would buy the Hello Kitty Noodles! I love how plain, but has a solid base flavor. This should allow me to switch it up every now and then. Make it similar to biang biang noodles (with the chili oil), or even add a roasted sesame sauce. Many different toppings and veggies would pair nicely with the noodles too. Thanks so much for reviewing them!
