alright guys so today we have another taste test for you and as you can
probably see everything is looking rather green just attached so that is
because today we have decided to do matcha snacks or green tea flavored
snacks and this is everything we could find we went to Don Quijote in the Discount Store and basically they have an entire wall with worms all like green
tea product is so cool because we went to this section and there's a sign it's
just some green in your face cream so we're just like ah dude we're gonna grab
everything yeah that's basically what happened we basically grabbed yeah and
we didn't have one more item that's in the fridge it's a green tea ice cream
you survived it in the freezer so we're gonna be starting out with this we'll
see the ice cream for last and yeah let's get started green tea
action so the big question is what are we gonna start with well be looking
closest to us so Meiji Meiji rich matcha of biscuits let's open it up oh well
luckily it comes in a pack so yeah it should be easy to open so that's
typically Japanese like I remember the first time I open the box of cookies and
I was expecting him straight with cookies yeah but everything was wrapped
individually I was just like what look at this it looks like someone looks like
there's a little round that not off a piece of the cookie it's broken
oh it is here I'm good so this is what it looks like it seems like a chocolate
cookie yeah um with a maybe matcha I see good smell this you're gonna really
know so they can really smell the matcha
that's like dark chocolate in Russian yeah let's try it
oh my gosh with this so far come right into it
Oh oh my gosh hmm what main item
whoa okay this inside is really thick really strong magic taste it's like
imagine if you were having an Oreo but the middle part was like twice as thick
don't you agree huh YUM it does remind me of the Oreo filling but with like a
green tea flavor whoa hello see these cookies are hard mmm I really like a
dough like um yes uh no um that definitely is a dark chocolate taste
coat a nice combination I'm sorry chocolate and make us so much I'm
finishing the whole thing hmm looks good we definitely miss banner so this kind
of looks like green tea chocolate yeah No thank you no I've lost I've lost
opening ribbon yeah destroys packaging like I like opening it nicely neatly
like this little hook in the back cookie on the back looks like a crunchy cookie
on the back the front is like a green tea chocolate yeah and if you flip it
over it's a cookie let's try this oh did you know this is a sailboat young for
yours it has a little sailboat design you know that that's pretty cool
okay so I'm tasting the crunchiness of the cooking mmm
oh that chocolates pretty creamy I like the first one better I thought it was
gonna have more of a matcha taste when I first bit into it but then where I'm
chewing it it tastes a little bitter yeah it's a little bitter it also tastes
a little bit like white chocolate too that's that's just for coming through
for me yeah yeah I just find this one a little more bitter than the icing in the
cookie yeah so it's okay cookies better so far not my thing this one looks a lot
better okay so these are cookies more cookies
it looks like Finn maybe like shortbread cookies oh wait a green tea look at the
pack because a packet company guys that's good it's kind of me maybe it's
like so you can take it to school as a little snack or it's a work a little
pack of noodles me is you can open the first part the second part seal yeah I
was like I'm hungry in the morning and then I'm hungry in the afternoon so it's
like it doesn't look like a shortbread cookie yeah so like there's two of them
there's sandwich together there's something in the middle you know what
I'm gonna turn them in tea oh yeah what else is there gonna be you can't really
see it though I really feel the wire in the moat mmm
it's a very thin layer I like these cookies and this would be my kind of
cooking I like the cookie but they're like you don't the matcha isn't coming
through very odd way I would agree like the cookie is so sweet and so sugary no
that's what I taste I don't taste matcha here there's a
really thin layer of the magic no not much do it oh well I do like the cookie
a song put the first two or three this one and then the third one I've been the
person that there have been the best frankly so this looks like mochi I
believe yes more cheap package mochi oh yeah which would be kind of like a
sticky rice ball yeah it's gonna be like a green
filling Jay green on the outside there's four little balls and then right there's
a little fork a little pokey for it Oh tell that they're they're pretty
dense okay I'll let you go first okay use that fork
you know what appears you know that you use the fork because I want to bite into
my and see the filling and I can see you just like popping popping it in your
mouth one go those are a bit different from other kind of boats that I've had
it's more like a jelly row yeah yeah the other part is more like a jelly so it's
really sweet but it's also like it's kind of it's chewy but it it has a
smooth texture while you're chewing it really nice that's really good
this has been a pleasant surprise I think let me like this the best top yeah
I think I think I'd agree with you that that's that's not moved into first place
mm-hmm but there's only four is that through the whole park or is there
another section no there's more there's more logs I'm just keeping it to the
line I thought it only came with four so there's actually eight eight there's
another four still in there so yeah well good what's good well we can't read the
packaging but this is what it looks like in case you're trying to find it in the
market yeah imagine if they had other fillings
like socrata you know what I'd like I'd like that
with black sesame in the middle oh yeah I know you would like I thought I'd also
do that with red bean at home okay okay now moving off with Ola why don't we do
these pointy stick loopy sticks now you can get these in many flavors is kind of
like the Kit Kats we've actually walked by stores where you can see like I don't
know like five ten different flavors yeah so basically I mean if this is kind
of like the pepero sticks we used to have in Korea
it's kind of like a pretzel yeah covered in chocolate and in this case of green
tea like matcha flavored chocolate again they come packages in there yeah I'm
pretty what this package I can tell there's a lot of them in here I just
wonder if you fix there are let's see oh my gosh look how many there are you can
take one you know what I think even the pretzel itself is matcha flavor because
it's a light green color and then the darker green is the the chocolate yeah
they feel like those you have a some kind of a little sort bark Larry would
you want to whatever but no come on whoa those are a bit different than I had
anticipated it's not so much like a pretzel in terms of flavor the flavor
isn't so much but it's still kind of crunchy like in the axle
it definitely has more of the magic consistency and the other coating is
it's like it's not like milk chocolate it's like a white chocolate please I
don't match yeah I kind of something like that a hint of bitterness hmm look
I don't I don't love these I wouldn't go out of my way to have them again but at
the same time they weren't they weren't gross by any means but they're just okay
but compared to some of the other things we find yeah I need some self-control
over here okay um I'm gonna open this next box it says oh oh no it looks like
it's a green tea cookie yeah with a chocolate base and like some
chocolate drizzled over top okay
open of the package why we just came out individually wrapped individually
wrapped refused usually feel like after deep in yeah they're quite thin they're
really thin Wow oh look they're like a little sheep the
sheep around there's on the bottom that appears to be a chocolate layer and then
appears to be the matcha cookie and then basically the chocolate just kind
of extends over to the mattress section I just taste milk chocolate but a little
in a bit of bitterness at the end matcha very subtle okay no I don't know
about one either molesty things haven't been our
favorites okay um your turn yeah I'm gonna do this one cookie
other's crunchy no no cranky Gundy this is the cranky this is the girl ghee so
it looks like you might be a chocolate bar yeah I'm pretty sure it is it yes
they have other things I think there's other crunky chocolate bars if I
remember correctly I mean different flavors oh that is like whoa green
chocolate check out this check with the bumps on the back bump
look okay yeah it is quite textured chocolate yeah but give you that and
then on this side it has look though it's a little T friend okay that makes
sense something and then over as like cookie crumbs and there's our little
cookie crumbs in the chocolate y'all break off of a row split that in half
there you go Oh traveler called crunchy okay yeah it has later that's pretty
good mmm-hmm Wow it is it's not funky it's actually crunchy yeah did you buy
into it it's kind of like little puffed rice
yeah yeah yeah it's pretty sweet and it's got again
got that white chocolatey green tea kind of taste to it it's not milk it doesn't
taste like typical milk chocolate this one says matcha latte and cookie that's
pretty good that's pretty so it's not really cookie it's more like those rice
puffs you're right I I really like this one this is this is one of my favorite
side unless your favorite it's not first but it's I'd say top three where does it
rank for you it's okay it's really sweet it is very sweet but maybe it's just
because we've been eating so much green tea sit up this one we tried another one
we did a KitKat taste just a few days ago and one of the flavors we got was
green tea matcha because the one in Japan so we're gonna try one of these
once more as part of this clean teeth flavored snacks video so it's perfect
because you got two little pieces yeah in each individual I remember I remember
correctly I didn't have that strong evergreen tea taste yeah there's been a
lot of chocolate happening these last few days I do like it just pretty smooth
it's known as sweet is some of the other cat flavors we've had it also doesn't
have like an artificial taste as strong as some of the other ones like this just
has a subtle kind of green tea matcha taste yeah it's nice but I think for
some reason I was expecting it to be stronger when I tried it a few days ago
for the may harm so yeah no it's very mild very very so let's the team is
maybe of all the things we've tried it yeah no no what it just maybe except
through these I remember these oh you have to have a matcha flavor at all yeah
that's true okay and oh another drink let's suit green
tea and there's still ice cream to come yeah this is something that you can find
it's cold wheel I think it's Waurika boy oh boy a woodchuck this is something
you might need any convenient store in Japan it's really nice it's green this
is strong green tea mm-hm it doesn't have sugar at it yes it tastes very
natural it's very much and it's all quite refreshing oh I like that it's
really strong really potent as it says yeah it does live up to its
name this is wonderful because we've been having so many sugary things is
kind of cleansing the palate of it mm-hmm and now bonus round you've got
that ice cream in the freezer so here comes the ice cream that was a short
wait time yeah so yeah we got this one from the supermarket
it's a Haagen Dazs oh no no it's Meiji made you know I have to say something
like one of the one of the nice street food snacks you can get and well
anywhere in Japan not just in Tokyo is you can get some nice soft serve green
sea ice cream yeah that's something we recommend for sure yeah this one's soft
soft serve but hey it's ice cream all right so I get first go ahead I already
fetched it so okay first bite oh my gosh my throat that hard freeze there must be
really really whoa cranked up oh my gosh I can barely get it that's going to like
bend the spoon ah seriously seriously it's super frozen it's pretty good it's
not as sweet as I thought it was be which is actually kind of a nice
surprise and when I first tried it I didn't feel if you feel like it at a
strong green tea flavor but the more I let it kind of roll around on my tongue
it actually does have a distinct green tea flavor it's more refreshing than it
is milky that's how I would describe it what do you think it's kind of nice
smooth is it I feel like maybe I'm not able to taste the matcha as much you
know because it's frozen it's ice cream and it's kind of like numbing at my
tastebuds so it doesn't taste bitter it doesn't taste too / sweet either it is
refreshing it's smooth it goes down easily and it would sure be nice if we
could actually take proper stencils of it
you like it yeah I was definitely worth Trout traveling definitely worth
trying one in Japan so yeah that's the last item for this green tea taste test
honestly when we were shopping for this I was kind of hoping they would have
some strange like savory items like maybe green tea ramen noodle cop or like
green tea potato chips or something yeah but we couldn't find any of that and
don't you fuck them if you're gonna get something that's
green that's savory it's in seaweed form in Japan you get sea beach if she gets
you eat shrimp crackers and things like that hang but green tea you actually
know the more thing you I don't think that would taste very good yeah but um
so yeah this was mostly like dessert items like very sweet little treats
except for the the tea so I would say it and that is all we hope you guys enjoyed
it this much green tea taste test nothing too too weird but now you know
one in Japan there's definitely some matcha stuff you can try indeed so
we'll see you soon with more japan food and travel videos Tata
