- [Akari] Curry?
- [Inga] Curry?
- [Akari] Ooh, but it says "Bear."
- Do you want to do this?
- You said, "Bear Meat?"
- Yeah, it says "Bear Meat."
(light cry)
(soothing music)
- Hey guys, it's, oh my God, so loud.
Hey guys, it's Inga.
I am in Japan right now, specifically Tokyo.
I'm actually here at Tasty Japan.
- Hello!
- This is Red-- - Hi Red.
(Inga laughs)
- Red and I are actually going to be
filming this video together. - Yes.
- We are going to try to make a two course meal
using stuff I find from vending machines,
ideally maybe three.
But, I don't know, do you think I'll be able
to find a lot of stuff?
- I mean...
(intense music)
- [Inga] Is that snails?
- Yeah.
There's a lot of unique vending machines in Japan, so--
- I'm gonna go hunt down these vending machines
now because you have to stay and work.
- Right, yeah.
- Okay.
- I've got a lot of work.
(Inga laughs)
- All right, so I will see you later.
- Okay, see you later.
- All right, bye.
(lighthearted music)
We're here in--
- Asakusa.
- Asakusa (laughs).
We are hunting down some vending machines
and we just found one.
- It says Corn Potage,
it's a really popular soup in Japan.
It's really nice.
There's another one here, it's Red Bean Soup.
- Ooh, that sounds good.
- Yeah, we usually eat it during the Oshogatsu,
which is New Year's time.
- Well, if you say it's good I have to get it.
Oh my God, it's hot.
(Akari laughing)
Oh, they're both hot.
- [Akari] Nice.
- We just found this really interesting machine.
(upbeat high energy music)
100.
- [Akari] What is it?
- I don't know, it's a...
Idol group?
Mystery gift for women.
This is my souvenir now, thank you.
Thank you Japan.
(beeping) (cheerful drum music)
You said there was an Oden vending machine?
- Yeah, and on Google it literally says,
"Canned Oden Vending Machine." (laughter)
- We have been walking for, I don't know how long.
- Five minutes or so.
- Only five minutes (chuckles).
I thought we've been walking for 20 minutes.
We finally found the Oden Vending Machine.
- I know it existed but I've never actually seen one before.
- [Inga] But you knew of it?
- People talk about it.
- [Inga] Oh! It's famous?
- It is famous.
- I think this is like a meal in itself right?
- Right.
- [Inga] Tell you all the ingredients they have inside.
- So, they have Durian Soda.
- Durian!
I love Durian, so--
- Ooh, you do?
- Yeah, you don't?
- I don't.
- I have to get it and then I can make you try it.
(soft uncertain music)
(laughter)
(chuckles) Oh wow, it even showed the Durian meat.
- Oh wow.
- Okay, so Akari mentioned this really
creepy vending machine place.
- Yeah.
- That we're now close to.
Are you ready?
- I'm not. (Inga laughs)
Are you ready?
- No, I'm not.
You said, "Creepy".
Oh no, we're here.
This is a photo booth, this is a photo booth,
and then what is this?
- [Akari] Smoke.
- [Inga] No, this is not smoke, this is...
(laughter)
Oh my God!
- "Warning, this is not a bathroom.
"If you pee or poop here, doesn't matter if you
"are male or female, they're going to be
"showing their face forever."
- Don't pee and poop here.
- Don't do it.
- [Inga] Okay so, so far these look pretty normal.
- [Akari] Outside is normal.
- Outside is, nooo. (terrifying music)
Oh my God, okay wait.
Is it safe though?
- [Akari] Do you think they'll clean up?
- [Inga] You know, I don't know.
This is a little scary, it's just another
popcorn machine in here.
If you thought the one out there was dirty--
- Don't use it.
(laughter)
- Whoa, is that snails?
1690 Yen, that's like around 15 U.S. dollars.
- [Akari] Yeah.
- [Inga] What?
- [Akari] And that's Yakitori it's good chicken.
- [Inga] Yakitori!
- [Akari] Yeah.
- [Inga] Chicken?
Oh!
Okay, I'll get that.
I keep on feeling like somebody's gonna jump me.
- I don't. - That's scary.
Sausages?
- [Akari] No, it's carrots.
- [Inga] Oh, carrots.
- [Akari] It's sold out.
- [Inga] This is a little like,
I don't think this is functioning no more.
There's like two locks on this and a chain.
Do you think there's a body inside?
- Oh my God, don't say that.
(laughter)
- [Inga] You can get eggs and coconut milk?
- [Akari] It looks small.
- [Inga] Oh, that's pink salt?
- [Akari] Yeah, pink salt.
Curry. - Curry.
- Ooh, but it says "Bear."
Do you want to do this?
- You said, "Bear Meat?"
- Yeah, it says, "Bear Meat."
(light cry) I'll think about it.
Dear.
You see that's a candle.
- [Akari] Yeah, that's candle because
we get a lot of earthquake, and there was typhoon.
So, if the electricity cuts off,
we shall have it just in case.
Meat sauce.
- [Inga] Meat sauce without the pasta?
- [Akari] Yeah.
- Oh! (can banging machine)
Interesting.
Back at this first machine because
I feel like we should get the Bear Curry.
- [Akari] There's only one, oh wow.
- All right guys--
- [Akari] You got it.
- Bear. - Oh wow.
- And it's not expired, so.
I'll make somebody at Tasty Japan (laughs) eat this.
This is, like such an adventure,
'cause we're making our way in and out.
There's a lot of mystery boxes here too.
- [Akari] From those boxes, they have a different stories.
- [Inga] Do you think this one's new?
- [Akari] This is new 'cause this news is pretty new.
- Let's do it.
(vending machine humming)
They really wrapped this up.
Four boxes of Kit Kats.
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
There's a marked location in here.
You see that?
- Oh my God. (laughter)
- What is going on?
We'll figure it out later.
Creepy vending machine--
- So creepy.
- Check.
There's one more place we want to hit up.
- Natto.
(laughter)
- Natto Vending Machine it is kind of far from here
but we're gonna go because it's worth it, right?
- It's gonna be worth it.
- Let's go.
- Yes!
- We finally found it, we finally found it.
You've never seen one of these before either?
- No, no, this is so cool.
They have so many kinds.
Ooh, Natto Miso Soup.
- [Inga] Miso Soup, oh.
- [Akari] And this is dry Natto.
- Dry Natto. - Dried Natto.
- Is that Natto Donut?
What should we buy?
I definitely want the Natto Miso Soup.
Natto Donuts, have you ever seen Natto Donuts before?
- [Akari] I've never seen one before.
(laughs) Look at your bag.
- I guess we're ready to go back to the office.
(laughter)
(quirky music)
- They're good?
- I got a lot of stuff (laughs).
- Really, that's a lot.
- These are all from vending machines--
- Really? - I didn't lie.
Akari and I walked.
I think we went to like five different districts,
literally went north--
- Really?
- And then (whooshing sounds),
and then back to the office.
And my arms are so sore.
- What (laughs)?
Really?
- Natto Miso.
- Natto Miso (speaking foreign language) Natto Miso.
Did you get this from the vending machine?
- The Natto Vending Machine.

Natto Vending Machine.
- It was so cool.
- Ooh Kit Kat.
- Yes.
Have you heard of that really creepy corner
where it's like the creepy vending machine?
Actually...
Ooh, where is it? Hold on.
(items banging against table)
No, I lost it.
Nevermind, I was gonna say this was
actually wrapped in like, oh like this.
- (chuckles) What?
- Yeah.
- (chuckles) This is scary bro.
(speaking foreign language) Pasta.

Where did you get this?
Do you know what this means?
- Bear.
- Yeah, Bear--
- Bear Curry.
(speaking foreign language) Beef, oh, Consomme Soup.
(speaking foreign language)
Yeah, I used to drink this one.
(speaking foreign language)

- I told you (laughs).
- Are you sure this is from the vending machine--
- Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- Like really?

Durian, yeah! My favorite.
- That's a no, yes!
(Red speaking foreign language)

You're shake it.
Yeah, you just shake it crazy but--
- I say later but--
- Okay.
Pudding, pudding shake, aw.
Oh donuts.
Natto.
(laughs) Oh my God, Natto Donuts.
Where'd you get this?
- Same place, Natto, Natto, Natto!
- Oh!
- We can save desert for later
but I think all of this we can start cooking up.
(lively jazz music)
(fan fare jingle) (lively jazz music)
- [Together] Tada!
- We thought we would only do one
three course meal but we've actually done two.
And then we used rice and pasta
because they didn't come with it,
and we wanted to keep it true to the original dish.
I will say though, when we were pouring
it out of the cans--
- Yeah, that was gross.
- Like the Bear Curry--
- Yeah, I know.
- When you put it out and it was just goo.
I'm excited, this looks really good.
- Yeah, me too.
(speaking foreign language)
- Actually before we start--
- Oh really, okay.
(Inga laughs)
My favorite.
(screaming)
Oh my God, it smells, ugh.
It's Durian. - In G, In G.
Cut, cut.
Cheers. - Cheers.
(glass clinking)
- (laughs) It smells--
- I mean...
- It smells exactly like Durian.
- I know.
(sipping)
Eh, all right, okay.
(speaking foreign language)
(liquid shaking)
I don't know, why did I shake it?
Oh, it's creamy.
- [Together] Cheers.
(glass clinking)
- The Durian is still in my mouth.
Mm--
- Really? - Great.
- Really good?
This is really good.
I feel like all of the kids are gonna love this.
There's nobody who could possibly not like this.
So soup first and then side dishes.
- [Red] Side dish and--
- Main dish. - Main.
(speaking foreign language)
- This is so good.
- Mm okay. - Natto.
- This is great.
It's not like a Natto Natto but
it tastes like a Natto.
- It smells off because of the fermented scent I think.
- Ah yeah.
- But when you drink it it just tastes like Miso.
Ooh, this is really good.
Oh.
I think normally it's a little more bouncy, right?
This one, I think because it's been
in the soup for so long it's just like soft.
- I get it.
- The flavor is great, it's just that
the texture is a little--
- Oh yeah, okay.
- Tell me how to eat this.
Oh, I just burped in my mouth and
it tasted like Durian (laughs).
(beep)
(lively jazz music)
- The more you mix the Natto you get
like a Mani.
- Oh really?
I've heard so many things about this thing.
(lively jazz music)
I think it started out okay.
It started out, like, I could get the mustard--
- Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
- I was getting used to the texture
but the after taste is a little interesting.
Like a pro.
(slurps)
Good?
- This is good.
- Really good? - Yeah.
- Oh.
You want to go for this?
- Yes.
(speaking foreign language)
I thought it's gonna be like a
vending machine quality but it's not, I like it.
- It's, like, a little more stringy,
the texture, but it's not bad.
The flavor is really good.
This just looks like it came from a restaurant.
- The Bear Curry.
Mm (speaking foreign language).
- Really?
- It's good.
- Can you taste the bear?
- I can't describe it but it's like (deep humming).
(laughter)
But I can tell that it's not regular meat.
Can get the (deep humming).
(laughter)
- Mm.
- Oh it's great. - Yeah, right.
- For sure.
- So, we're gonna finish this and
then we are going to go and make dessert.
- Dessert.
Yes. (Inga laughs)
And Dessert time!
- Dessert time!
A bunch of desserts here.
So we're gonna try and build layers.
- Is that a pudding (laughs)?
- It just smells like vanilla pudding at this point.
- And it came out as a baby food.
Yeah.
- (gasps) Look at this perfect donut everybody.
Actually, first try it.
- No Natto, oh my God.
I was so scared.
- This is really good.
- Yeah.
(fervent piano music)
- Oh!
(laughter)
This is not what I was expecting.
- What did you expect?
- I thought it was gonna be a paste.
- Oh no!
(fervent piano music)
- Oh, can I just put a donut on top
and call it a day?
(laughter)
Yeah!
(clapping) (laughter)
- Yeah, you did it.
- I did it!
(soft symphonic music)
(chopping)
(laughter)
Yeah!
Here you go.
- Natto Donuts, mm (laughs).
- This is good.
- This great.
- It's really good. - Oh God.
- What is the vending machine in Japanese again?
(speaking foreign language)
(fan fare) (romantic r&b music)
(laughter)
Well we did it, the meals turned out great.
I think if we presented it to some people
they probably wouldn't even be able to tell.
- I know.
- I hope you guys liked this.
Look forward to our other collaboration videos,
and I'll see y'all then.
Bye!
- [Red] Bye!
