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..

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!

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.

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.

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.

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).

"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 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.

The D.A.R.E T-shirt is so nostalgic! I love it!

My 6 year old’s favourite food is fish eggs. It was one of my kids first foods, cause it’s easy to eat and good for them. I always have to get fish egg sushi for my kids when we go out for dinner.

I absolutely love ginger since I went on a health kick for my GERDs. I'd love to try the ginger onigiri. I hope I get to be in Japan next year trying some onigiri!

I found this place in Virginia that sold onigiri and the best ones were mushroom and shumai! It had three shrimp shumai stuffed inside! Amazing!!

Onigiri is great. We all hope you continue to make more content like this.

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.

Haha I know, right? I’ve never had it before, but I love umeboshi and rice (or just on its own). It’s sooo gooood.

I was expecting so many “that’s what she said” one liners in this episode. Did not disappoint.

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

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.

I’m surprised you guys hate the plums so much they are my favorite type of onigiri ❤. But I’m Polish and was raised on sour pickles so maybe that’s why 😅. I love the sour taste as it’s very refereshing. The sour plum/Shiso is what I make at home too, since I can only get ingredients in shops here, no premade ones sadly. 😅

Tuna with onion and pickled radish actually sounds really good

My favourite flavour was from that one NewDays store at Maihama station. I was waiting for Disneyland to open and had a quick breakfast of two onigiris and a bottle of coffee. They had this flavour of half boiled egg on rice and by God it was amazing.

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.

Maybe they can cut items that are not in bite sized packets into 2 so that we can look inside and both hosts can take a bite if they want to. Honestly, all the items except the mentaiko ones look edible to me. I would not eat an entire sour plum in a go though.

Mentaiko is actually my favorite onigiri flavor lol

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!

Australian "bushman" Malcolm Douglas made "shooshi" rolls with some fresh caught tuna. He got sick of making damper.
