hello everybody welcome to tokyo
creative play i'm your host emma and
today i'm here with
a brawl in japan hello how are you doing
it's a long time i've seen my friend
it's been a while now yeah i don't know
why i forgot what you look like
anyway today we're going to be doing a
uh a blindfold taste test of some
japanese snacks we're going to try them
see if we can guess what they are and
the person who's bad at it goes through
a bad time
what does that mean i don't know thrown
out of a window
maybe not such a bad time fingers
crossed but today we're going to be
trying some sweets from uh tokyo treat
and sakura ko they're like some snack
boxes this one uh tokyo treat has a lot
of really modern you know things that
you can find at kombini supermarkets
they change seasonally you know that
kind of jazz and sapporo is kind of
traditional wagashi suites maybe passion
and craftsmanship and i didn't wish box
i'd rather have to be honest but this is
the sort of stuff i eat every week
it would be fun to have that in a box
but also would be kind of fun to try
something a little bit more traditional
and authentic so
you get to choose between the two also
today's video is sponsored by tokyo
treat and sakura cult so thank you so
much for sponsoring us let's get into
the foods
yeah
all right let's put our blindfolds on
it's getting very scary very fast oh
it's like paying the prison count
two things right yeah all right excuse
me
wait
chris what it's empty
you greedy are you a greedy person i
took two things emma
what what's going on i can't say
anything
oh never mind
okay i have my snacks here we go i have
my first snack are you ready for your
first snack i think so i feel like i'm
being interrogated in a really
patronizing manner because of this like
cute licking blindfold all right let's
go
give me the sweets
it's not crisps
it feels popcorny
i mean i ate a lot of popcorn
oh it's it's not popped on
can i eat it
i think you're allowed
no
it's crispy
so what what flavor do you think it is
it's kind of like
caramelly
and corny all right and caramel corn
this must be caramel yeah it doesn't
taste like the regular caramel corn no
it tastes
different um i don't know but the shape
is weird it feels like a small bridge
is that is that
this is the bridge themed caramel color
[Music]
you are right it is caramel corn yes the
flavor is not the usual one do you want
any more guesses you can just shoot out
a guess it's uh sugar flavor uh you
i i
know it's just taste of sugar it is lots
of sugar white milk flavor
what the
i don't know why it's i don't know what
white oh okay it really is christmas
things that is the shape of a bridge
though
traditional kyoto bridge but it tastes
better than a bridge oh there's nice
christmas theme in it yeah it's nice
i'll be in the box
that people order yes in time for
christmas yes you order it before the
end of november you get the christmas
themed stuff so cute all right put your
blindfold on all right it's time for
your
edible product there you go
okay it's the bag very good
i have actually no idea oh that's sweet
it's just like sugar oh it's potato
chips oh
it's sweet potato chips very good not
caramel what is this flavor right what
is this
well it's a potato chip crisp it's ridge
cut or crinkle cut as we say in the uk
what's the flavor
it's it's like slightly sweet but then
it gets just way more savoury
imagine you're being interrogated right
now you've got a blindfold on you're in
a prison camp of my choosing what's the
flavor
flavor if you don't know that you've
died oh god tell us the flavor and we'll
let your friends live now i can't tell
what it is
[Music]
[Laughter]
it does though doesn't it look it's
literally covered and drizzled in
chocolate i could see that there was
like something on it but
i couldn't tell if it was chocolate
that's not good i'm embarrassed i'm
embarrassed for you thank you all right
we've got some sort of drink in a cup
it smells right oh it smells very sweet
oh
it tastes like
mango
mango and peach
and excitement
i want to say it tastes like waffle but
i know they do not do guava flavored
things here today
yeah i'm going to go with
mango peach
apple and peach
just to be different but what's the
product
flavor juice
some oil in our juice juice for real
oh
okay i didn't see that coming oh straw
what kelp is
i was going to take helmets but i
couldn't taste anything creamy
strawberries in cream with 50 less
calories okay that did not taste creamy
i thought i just thought it was fruit
juice it makes sense though yeah
afternoon
i mean i love cow fish i used to put
cabbage in all my videos because
american years were like dude yourself
it should be culpas but you're saying
carl pissed or something it's like yep
and all the comments should be like
hahaha
yeah got loads of comments more audience
interaction youtube boosted the videos
up the algorithm and then i've got two
million subscribers that's all thanks to
calphas so you should definitely get
tokyo tree okay
here you go present for you merry
christmas it's not kit kat i don't think
it
is a stick thing so it's like a pocky or
a toppo
i mean yeah that's good it's uh butter
caramel
oh yeah i don't care about
well genius it's great
so the winter
winter caramel or something that butter
butter it's like butterscotch share the
happiness with poppy that's what we're
doing these are really good okay
it's time for you all well
good luck thank you wow it's big first
impressions um bag of things excellent
oh it's a paint it's a paper bag
brilliant uh kit kats do paper bags
they do they do they yeah they do like a
paper style bag
oh i didn't know individually wrapped
inside
oh
i'm very intelligent yeah yeah you get
you need to tell us the flavor kitkat's
a big deal in japan of course
because it sounds like tokkatsu to
surely win so on the back here they give
these as gifts grandparents parents can
lose the kids and they ride like good
luck in your tests to kesley on the back
give it to them
have you decided the flavor yet it is an
obscure flavor to that i don't think i
would get it give it a hint it's a
kitkat wow
you're flavored
wow thank you so much really helped me
out it's not some kind of it doesn't
taste like some kind of alcohol it's not
like a fruit what is that oh
no
i think the time is up i think emma is
it's too late you've got the easiest one
a kitkat the flavor is
milk tea oh it's tea it's quarter yeah
freezing milk tea
[Music]
okay let's blindfold once again and
would you like to do the honest writing
box i would
okay
let's start with this one
good luck oh this is difficult because
this isn't something you can buy at
7-eleven it's kind of like a paper
wrapping
the wrapping feels like high quality
what is this this is really weird
it's cardboard
no it's an object wrapped in plastic can
i eat this yeah probably not because
they have like the sweets in japan but
you can eat the plastic wrapping yeah
i'm going to eat the plastic and see if
it's edible it's edible it's actually
yeah it's actually open
if i choke to death and die
from like poisoning funny is it only to
a certain point um
mochi
yes
i'm going to give you a little hint
because this is difficult what what's in
it what what are you tasting in it nutty
undertones mmm pistachio are you are you
saying that as your final thing yeah
yeah
no no yeah yeah
should i
i don't want to help you man i don't
want to lose it's probably good though
one mochi with nuts yeah it's mochi with
nuts it's coulda been one tea
which is walnuts
looks really good yeah the wrapping
doesn't do it justice really looks like
a meaty snack that watching is easily
the best thing i've had today so i have
high hopes for this okay um good luck
it's really light super light
is it a maybe a kind of sending
very prawny very fishy i wonder what
flavor it's a fish a fishy kind of thing
i don't know what kind of fish
i don't know if it's heavy
like it's a rice cracker it's like a
sweetness to it kind of almost like
takoyaki
i'm going to say that it's like a
takoyaki
excellent take a blindfold off it's not
either no it is in fact
oh
scallops scalp flavour is it good yeah
it's actually really good sometimes
december i have trouble because they're
quite dry but other brands
they've found a way to get rid of the
dryness kind of a nice crispy sort of
flavor yeah this one is like really
thick as well yeah we've been given a
warm beverage
smells good smell it does smell like
this is quite nostalgic this is
it's cool is it a wheat tea isn't it
this is gotta be green
yeah orgy charts it's torture i used to
drink this like every day in winter when
i worked at school when i was teaching
the staff and we had like a kettle and
you'd pour this and just drink this all
day oh yeah maybe it was fuji it's not
like green green too yeah you're right
mojito
has less caffeine than regular green tea
what's all this there
are you reading it no
did you speak it like no that's not
horizon
it's very mild isn't it like green tea
sometimes it'll be quite bitter and a
bit like yeah this is like the perfect
balance it's good though it's a good
choice for putting that to the box i'll
give them that it's good
it's a sort of accessible green tea yeah
one of the best things japan is sitting
like a temple in kyoto like overlooking
a rock garden having green tea and we've
actually i love it seems very much like
against who i am
yeah i'm surprised well i do i do
actually enjoy quite a lot i've noticed
there's a cup on the table in a sucky
cup there is
turns out if you enter the codes on the
screen when you order a box you get a
free gift
like this yeah that's pretty cool that's
nice well bit of sake a little bit of a
little bit of a sip excellent smells of
cups all right good light opening
excellent little spoon for you what the
dickens is this it's like a sausage roll
it's interesting how you like intuition
unwrapping things even you can't see
what it is right it's like
a jelly
shut up
this is so annoying oh you're doing
great oh yeah
hmm
no spoon didn't need the spoon you're
too good for it the real spade was
the whole time
chris brought everyone
mandarin
okay
yeah isn't it i can't i can't tell you
mandarin jelly
last answer okay final answer
wrong
yuzu kuzuri mochi because you're mochi
it's really this is quite good when you
eat it when you're not wearing your
blindfold it's great hey
so you've got to get what three or four
points to win even though you've got two
remaining good luck what is what
i've always thought these don't look
very appealing they taste good is it
cutting though might be
what's that everything tastes like sweet
potato
sweetener
sweet potatoes
i actually went there in the february
oh oh i saw these then
this now you've got this is a test
i've never known what this is called
it looks like a branch covered in sugar
yeah i don't never look like that
advertising
seven points
five points
have a big overlay like balloons there i
don't know who's editing this but yeah
balloons and magic and like the
explosion of fireworks yeah lots of
music and people clapping finish
so
because you've lost for like the 20th
time in three years
you have got to drink what can't be
described as
just uh so here we go
i think our place to be bleeped out
be careful it's very hot
i'm very pungent
i don't even really know what it is but
the artwork paints a bleak picture
smells like tea almost but there's
something a little off off about it yeah
like sour something yeah look at the mix
all right
it's quite nice
what is it
it's like it's like sour it's like a
sour oh it's really i want them to send
this in
tea flavored like your dad's socks oh
it's getting worse the way i drink it
yeah it's just socks
now that i know that it's my job soft
flavored tea oh it literally is yeah
soft juice it's really nice
actually quite nice what's the i'm
disappointed that's really
i just hope you don't lose the next time
i'll find something really bad to put in
there all right so we actually had a few
snacks from the boxes they come with
heaps more that we didn't get to try
unfortunately but uh yeah they all look
really good i really like the look of
yours yeah so i love the sakura one
because it's kind of like they're from
traditional shops and stores smaller
places going back hundreds of years it
comes back comes with this book with all
the places and uh sort of telling the
story of each product so it's really
cool and they themed the december one
around the safari snow festival ah
the winter festival
which is one of the most amazing things
you did
last year so i like that it's a really
cool package and i'm genuinely impressed
with the things we had today and also
that one it comes with allergy
information for each uh product so you
can check it out if you need to be
careful of that kind of stuff they're
super nice i really love that
it's nice to
you know share these kind of cool
unique traditional snacks with the world
i think yes it's hard to get that kind
of stuff outside of japan it is yeah
it's really hard so yeah big fan very
impressed
if you guys are interested in the boxes
please follow the link in the
description down below and let us know
in the comments what snack you would
like to try let me try today but yeah
that's it thank you so much chris it's
