Hey guys! I'm back with another subscription box opening video today
But, this is probably my last one
Unless you guys have any boxes that you would like me to review
Let me know. I don't wanna do to many - I've been doing quite a few recently
So for a while this will be the last one but
I'm really excited to open this one because it's huge
This is the biggest one i've ever gotten, it's the Japan Crate premium box
and it comes with 15 snacks, a full sized drink and a mystery item and a DIY kit
I'm hoping there's some snacks that i've never seen before
Leeets open it up and see!
So obviously for me this isn't as exciting as it would be for you guys because I live in Japan
and I see most of these things
but these are really like a great way for you guys to be able to get your hands on Japanese snacks
and the surprise element of it is really fun
But, wow, theres lots of stuff in here, those are new
Oh and there's a drink
Lets go through the pamphlet and check out what's in here
I really like the pamphlets that Japan crate does because they're not only an explanation of the items
they have like comics, and contests for you to enter and pictures of you guys with your boxes
Okay so, here's the page explaining all of the items that are in this box
let's start with the drink, because i'm excited to try "Pineapple soda"
"Suwato pine soda", Pine soda sangria
If you guys don't know in japanese they call pineapple pine, and that confuses me the first time
I seriously thought that they were talking about pine trees
I saw some snacks and it didn't have a picture of a pineapple on it and it just said pine gumi on it
or something and i was like what??? so just so you know! Pine = pineapple
but, yeah lets try this! so it's a soda I probably shouldnt have shook it
smells really good!
mmm! that's good.
And it has no artificle sweetners in it
that's nice, I usually don't like carbonated drinks actually
I never drink them! but it's kinda neat to drink it once in a while
I probably drink it like twice a year when i'm at somebodies party and they only have coke or something
but this is really nice, i think i like it because its like juice, just like pineapple juice with bubbles
thumbs up.
Alright, next we have "Saku pan choco monaka"
It looks like it's a chocolate that has airbubbles in it kinda like an areo
I'm technically not supposed to be eating sugar right now. Maro's staring at the drink
I think its cause the bubbles are making noises, that's so cute I gotta film
He gave up, he was making really cute faces and like the bubbles were going on his face
Yeah, I'm not supposed to be eating sugar right now 'cause i'm doing a
No sugar diet, like i'm still eating fruit and stuff that has natural sugars but I'm not eating junk food
I've gotta see how long I can keep it up for
But for today, for the purpose of this video I will try everything in it
so, wow, that's a scary looking panda!
I think i'm gonna have nightmares
Mm, can you see the holes in it, it's really like, it's really light
It's a lot lighter, oh it's melting in my hand,
A lot lighter than an areo
which is nice, it's not like a heavy chocolate bar
this is really good!,
next we have, Calbee shrimp chips, now I really dislike shrimp chips!
So i'm not a good person to be reviewing these, i don't like anything that is like fish flavour
I don't really like fish flavoured snacks, so, I'm kinda dissapointed that this is one of the big things
in the package, i kinda feel that shrimp chips you either hate them or you love them
they're not really like a safe item to put in boxes, i don't know, if you disagree let me know
But, I know lots of people that don't like them cause they're kinda the same as me they don't like fishy tasting stuff
but, yeah, they're a bag of shrimp chips, and there is also a container of shrimp potato chips
so i'm really dissapointed, i'm going to try these as i've never had these before and i'm gunna see if they're any better
than the stick version,
um chips are potato chips are in general pretty good, they're like the Japanese pringle
they don't smell super fishy,
okay yeah they do, I lied.
They're exactly like a pringle how is this legal
mm, okay the taste isn't too shrimpy so I can handle these but I wouldn't reach for them to eat them
so thats too bad but, i'll find a friend that likes shrimp chips, and they will get some pringles for me,
next we have purumochi, grape gummies,
oh cool, they're all individually packaged. That's a very Japanese thing to do but it's nice cause you don't need to eat the whole package
they're reaaally squishy, but like a dense squishy, you know what i mean?
I really love that texture, they're like mochi, i guess that's why theyre called purumochi, yeah.
yeah the texture's definintley the best part about these,
these could be any flavour and i would eat them
alright next we have banana man, banana man...
It's a banana and chocolate snack, it doesn't really say much more than that, let's open it up and find out
Oh, it looks like a banana,
oh my god, woah! it's soft! I've never seen this before! it feels like a marshmellow
It is a marshmellow, that would be why
the banana flavour isn't overpowering, it's very light, and there is a little bit of chocolate in the middle
Kurumono san gumi, lots of different fruit gummies. I like how they're on this cute little tray
they smell so good
these are awesome!
why have I never seen these before?
these look like something you would get from like a traditional Japanese candy shop.
These might be like the best gummies i've had, the flavour is really nice, they're really like fruity
next, we have caplicocot, another chocolate with air inside of it
and the flavour is double chocolate, they're in an interesting package here
aw they're hearts, they're almond shape? i don't know
I love this little case that they're in, it's awesome
Oh wow they're like little pods
mm! okay, these really remind me of an areo bar and its because they're pure chocolate
there's no wafer or anything with them. But the cool thing is they're 2 flavours of chocolate
so it's milk on the bottom and like a creamy, kinda tastes like hot chocolate, flavoured chocolate on the top
They're really good,
Fuee ramune, I've definitley tried these before, but, 17 years ago? or so, wow i'm old
In highschool in my Japanese class my Japanese teacher brought some back from Japan with him
and what they are is a candy that also works as a whistle, how you do it i'm not sure
that's so neat
Maro came to see what's going on, it's okay, Mmm
They're really good, they're just like those rocket candies that come with the little tube if you're not sure what Ramune are
next we have another gummy candy, yay, this is the Maken Gumi, it looks like they're playing rock paper scissors
on the front, but I don't know why. I have no idea what is going on
Oohhhh!! I get it, you don't know which one you're gunna get!!, this part's covered up.
in the package you just see the circle so you buy two like you and your friends and then yay
I win, and then I guess like the winner could steal the star from the other person or something
that's fun, that's neat. Japan has like lots of little fun things like that for kids
I feel like it would have been really fun growing up here as a child
well for the candy part anyways
so this is cola flavoured which I am excited about, yay, mmm
typical cola flavoured gumi flavour - really good
this is interesting it looks like one of those sticky hands that you throw at the wall, kinda tempted to throw it at my wall
okay, this next item here is gum. but it's not just any gum i'm really happy about this one because its
gum that doesn't have any artificial sweeteners in it
and i'm allergic to them, i react very badly to them i get a horrible headache that sometimes turns into a migraine
so i try to stay away from them, and gum always has artifical sweetners in it so i can never eat it
but this one doesn't! which is really weird
it's cute, its like a little package with just a couple gums
finally gum that i can eat, i'm really happy about that and it tastes good, it's a really subtle green apple flavour
okay we got 3 items left, another candy that i've never seen before but it looks like a lolly pop that you stick in powder
maybe, i'm not really sure, thats what it looks like on the back so lets open it and find out
this is all so cola flavoured, oh yeah!, look theres a lollipop inside then you lick it and you dip it in the white powder
I wonder what flavour the powder is
tastes like the ramune candies
so you lick the flavour of the cola lollipop and the like ramune flavour
mmm!
and the last snack for this inside here looks like its one of those ones that you make yourself.
animal shape soft candies, on sticks
looks like its really simple one, like you dont have to mix anything
lets see if i can make it right here
cute! comes with a really cute mould that i could re-use, for making chocolates for valentines day.
oh, wow! its not liquid, its like a soft clay but its not clay its edible obviously!
but you take it and you mould it into the mould, that's interesting okay make sure you wash your hands very well
before doing this, but you can mix the flavours if you want this is the strawberry
lets stick a stick in it,
i probably should have put the stick in first, oh maybe it doesn't matter.
it's soft enough that i can go like this
okay, i have no idea if this is gunna turn out, lets try pulling this
oh, yayy! hey thats pretty cute
if you're more careful than i was you can make a perfect one by like not having this extra stuff on the side
but hey, that looks awesome, these would make like a cute present for valentines day for your friends or something
lets try tasting it
That is an interesting flavour, you know those squishy strawberry candies that you can get from like 7/11 in Canada
it tastes like that, that's what it is
its good, its like a reaaallly soft hi-chew
and it looks like each Japan crate comes with a little toy, and i think you can use this to enter the contest
they have like photo contests where you put this guy in a little setting and take a picture of him
so thats fun i like how they have interactive stuff in each box
I'll put the Japan crate info down below, check that out
if you're interested and i'll see you guys soon! BYE!
