Seeing Guga almost cry and getting laughed at by his wife was just the thing I needed to see today.
Yooo, that hurt the wallet and soul.
@@guga damn
you are heartless!
I literally spat my beer out when I saw Guga cry. I imagine he was thinking on how many steaks he could've bought from the cost of that box.
Mrs Guga doesn't mess around! 😂
Lived in Japan for 7 years. You absolutely hit the nail on the head with this one!
Literally💀
Im trying to move to japan
It's called egg salad sandwich in the states. grab some kewpie and frenches and a couple hard boiled eggs. this is an old recipe from back in the day
The Japanese 7-Eleven egg salad sandwich is by far the best I've had in my life, after having it for the first time I made sure to eat at least two every day I was there, words cannot explain how good it is, I don't know what they do to make it so good. Glad you liked it!
You visited Japan?
Amen to that!! Honestly most convenient stores in Japan sell great food.
Same here! I spent a few months in Tokyo some time ago and while working many, many hours, I always had the 7-11 egg salad sandwich as the backup when coming back late.
Can't explain how good it is.
7-Eleven Egg Sandwiches is one of the best thing I ever had in my life. Not only delicious, but also a best friend when you dont have time to eat outside and you need to eat fast while working or having lots of activities.
I once have bought 6 Egg Salad sandwiches and my friend ask why you bought that much and I said "You will realized it when you eat this" and he ate one from mine and soon he get addicted to it, eating 3 of them at once.
A simple convenience food yet recommended by everyone is the best word to say.
I admit I haven't tried them but something I love is melon pan. Also most sorts of onigiri. But my favourite is probably sushi bentous.
My favorite is going to the markets at the basement of the malls and shopping centers towards the end of the night. They start marking down all their precut meat, prepared sushi and sashimi around 630-7pm. Starts at 10% off and slowly gets up to 70% depending on how late it is and how much is left. Sometimes can have $70 worth of sushi for $15-$20.
Man I always suffer massive analysis paralysis when I go visit those coz there's just soooooo many good stuff in there xD
Given it's Japan, Guga could probably make a whole new series just trying out all the different kinds of snacks they have, let alone full fledged dishes or recipes.
He would be there for months if not years, there is such a variety.
puding alone has a huge variety in japan
squid crisps were a think I had to deal with. No Shino (my girlfriend at the time) They are NOT AT ALL LIKE POTATOE CHIPS,k Not Even CLOSE, I'm from the land of FOOD, not the land of rotten fish.
"Beikoku" is a somewhat rare, and often derogative way of refuring to the US. But the words, and the Kanji's translate to "Great Kingdom of Rice." and "rice" is basically just a reference to all food,. So America is the Great Kingdom of Rice./ food. Which...makes sense.
Agreed, Guga is a great cook/chef and I trust his opinion but it's his enthusiasm for a 7-11 egg salad sandwich that brings me to his videos every time
I love that guga is a relatable enough boomer he's actually went into japan blind with no research on what to eat and get. It's refreshing to see actually cause im the type to spend 2 years learning Japanese watch non stop japan videos and then go
I am pretty sure he is Gen X, on the younger end of Gen X if google is to be believed.
@@Deladus lol He's absolutely Gen X.
The boundaries between generations are kind of vague, but in general (as I write this) Boomers are 70+, Gen X are 50-70, Millennials are about 30-50, and Zoomers are in their teens and 20s.
@@sierragolf2096 Guga is clearly not 50 so he'd be millenial.
@@sierragolf2096 Arent generations every 15 or so years.
Calling him a boomer had me laughing so hard, poor guy.
For the pudding. Usually the pudding cup have a stick-out nub at the bottom of the cup. What you want to do is flip the pudding cup, place it on a plate and break the nub. It will release the pudding onto the plate without breaking the pudding
The 7-11's were literally one of my favorite parts of visiting Japan! The huge variety of really good food items for CHEAP was amazing and we went multiple times a day! Family Mart is also the same way as well. Those egg sandwiches were a big hilight for me, SO good.
I prefer a Lawson or Family Mart, but when I go I'm usually heading to Okinawa.
Cheap? You need to visit a supermarket a little further and less convenient
Tbh supermarket stuff in Japan especially fresh fruits and vegetables to make those food is bit expensive than eating from 711, a meal that makes you full cost 300Yen for a bowl of noodles or dish there. Which is impossible to make a dish there from scratch with same amount of money per meal, and also convenience
For those who don't know, 7-Eleven is a Japanese owned company. Ito-Yokado, a Japanese supermarket chain acquired a 70% stake in 1991, and the company became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Seven-Eleven Japan in November, 2005.
7-Eleven is an American company that was founded in 1927 by Southland Ice Company employee John Jefferson Green. Southland exited bankruptcy in March 1991, that’s when it was acquired by the Japanese. So yes, you are right, but no matter who owns 7-Eleven, it’s still considered an American chain as it started in the U.S. Just like Budweiser. It will always be an American beer, but Anheuser-Busch is now owned by AB InBev, a Belgian company.
@@eyesears113 It's like how Jolibee aquired the Filipino Burger King holdings... No one escapes the Bee... NO ONE
Should I call the United States a Brittish colony with your logic? I know I'll offend more people than intended here, so let me apologize beforehand to those of you reasonable enough, I'm just trying to tell this guy to chill, mind you.
@@gerardopadilla2666 Well considering the U.S. fought for their freedom from the British and won, not quite the same as a business buyout. Now if you compared it to the selling of America via the creation of the Federal Reserve and central banking that runs it, that would be a much better comparision.
@@gerardopadilla2666 No, you need to chill. The point is that 7-Eleven is so big in Japan because it is a Japanese company. You read WAY too much into my comment. But, if you are looking to be offended, you will find it in any comment.
As someone who went to Japan recently and ate at convenience stores like 7-11, Lawson, and Family Mart literally every day, I can confirm that the food they have is delicious!! 😋 Absolutely worth the price! The onigiri is so good too 🍙 and their breakfast foods
I was denied entry to Japan... smh
@@JonHop1how it's open visit rn you only need a passport
in america we only have one cheap and decent food place, and thats Costco
@parzelel2603 past dui from 15 years ago... clean record since. Happened when I was 18. Only charge on my record. Also, I wasn't driving on public roads. It was snowing and we were messing around in my uncles field. A neighbor called for noise complaint.
Supermarkets are about the same quality and a little bit cheaper usually but not very much. And as convenience stores are a good source of cash and open around the clock, they are, well, convenient.
Seeing Guga review a variety of foods/snacks has made me so happy!
Guga should do this more often!
And I am so glad all the 7-Eleven foods were amazing.. ! Now I know what to get if I ever visit!
I knew instantly that you will love the egg sandwich. When I was in Japan it was part of my daily breakfast (instead of having breakfast in the Hotel we went to a Convenience Store and got our breakfast there). And the egg sandwich was one of the best things I ate in Japan, it was simply amazing.
Thank you guga for wasting your money on our behalf
😂😂😂
Only Guga could make eating expensive food so entertaining!
I love you Guga! You've quickly become my favorite TH-cam "foodie". Great and unique personality. Reallly been enjoying your content for the last few months.
I had the pleasure of living in Japan for 3 years. Their taste in foods is very different than what is typical in America, but you will come across some amazing foods there. I miss the food and the culture to this day, and It's been 20 years since I left there.
My coworkers thought I was crazy when I said the egg salad sandwiches over there were amazing, nice to see you have experienced the truth
And cheap!!!
Guga , the guys at Sorted Foods want to do a colab 10 / 10 highly reccomend
Just make a comment of my own saying the same thing! Guga! GIT-R-DONE!
PLEASE make it happen Guga. Come to London and try our food. Sorted are brilliant. Please do a collab with them. It’d be fab
It's been so rad seeing your channels and brand grow from all those years ago. You all deserve your success and more.
I watch this channel stoned a lot so always make me feel warm and fuzzy.
And hungry.
The tuna in that roll at 8:35 looks insane for $1!! That is amazing quality fish!
GUGA! Sorted Foods talked about you today! They want to do a collaboration!!! PLEASE MAKE IT HAPPEN!
100% agree. PLEASE do a collab with the brilliant sorted food!
If he goes to London I would want to see him try Hawksmoor the makers of that kit that Jamie got a while back
Yes, let this be a thing immediately! My Lads with Guga!? Please make this happen! 👍🙏
I'm a long time follower and I think It was a really nice and refreshing video. Thank you Guga for your effort in making all these good videos for us to consume! :D
You never run out of great content, I literally look forward to watching your videos on each page you upload to! Your the man Guga! 💪🏻💯
This was great Guga! Your absolute contempt for the bad expensive stuff was hilarious, you could make a series out of this 😂
Why i dont need masterchef made meals in my life. The chefs cuddle the dishes with their fingers to make it look pretty. I rather want all contact with my food be made with a spoon
I really hope you took some time to explore ramen on your trip. Japanese treat their ramen like we do our barbeque. Every region has their own style, and I never found one style I couldn't enjoy.
Hi, Guga. A fan from Japan. So happy to see you enjoying our country. Regarding department store food, some are good, but some are just down right just costly and weird. My thought is, the convenience store food is more stable in quality and much much cheaper.
Btw, the custard pudding is steamed and the caramel sauce is intentionally made quite bitter to balance the sweetness.
Looking forward to more videos from your time here.
cool to see someone who's from japan react!
同志です。デパ地下の食べ物で変な物結構多いですよね。
Guga can be a food blogger... he's so honest.
The convenience stores in japan are true convenience, reasonably priced drinks and food. Good taste for the price you are paying. (I truly love the grilled salmon onigiri from the big 3, being Lawson, Family Mart, and 7-11)
And don't forget that they offer to heat up any food you want hot.
Great video. You tell it like it is. Loved your reaction to the bad food !!!!
I really enjoy this vlog/review style. Hopefully there is more future content like this.
Brutally honest reviews, tough love. Perfect review.
i could be wrong but the pudding is supposed to be flipped onto a plate. pretty sure theres a part on the bottom that you tear off so that the pudding comes out.
i think the most expensive bento i ever got from a department store was tonkatsu bento which was 1600 yen. usually i buy onigiris/rice balls whenever i go to a convenience store in japan
I'm planning to go to Osaka for the 2025 World Fair, so it's cool to see Guga's take on some things
Man, Guga's videos always make my day.
Best guga video - so far!
The 7-11, or other Japanese convenience store egg salad sandwich are pretty much the stuff of legends. Simple, cheap, delicious and easy to obtain. I probably ate a couple of hundred of them during my time in Japan.
When I lived in Japan, I went to the 7-11 around the corner from my apartment, and guaranteed, I got the egg sandwich every single time. Those are just the best.
I'm a 7-11 & Lawson's spaghetti fan. I eat at least a few times while I'm there. Add a loaf of Japanese white bread and bam!
Muiiiito foda Guga!! Espero que tenha gostado daqui parceiro! Abracao!
Loved this type of vid
I love the travel food videos! Keep going buddy
We went to Mitsukoshi a month ago, we got a few of the cakes/dessert which were really good and not expensive. I didn't like the look of those box things you got so I'm glad I didn't get them. On a completely different note, how much was your hotel to get that big of a room! Must have cost almost as much as your flight :)
You need to get the strawberry sandwich from the 7-eleven. I miss it everyday!
Love your eating adventures!!
The popularity of the egg mayonnaise sandwich in Japan is one of those rare examples of a food introduced from the UK. It's very popular here as well, especially if made with Heinz salad cream instead of mayo. A staple of the supermarket "meal deal" sandwich, snack, drink combo.
Ms. Guga you need to give us your opinion on the foods your husband has tried.
Seeing you honesty results are a great information. Tks chef Guga 😊 🙏🏻🥋
Lol this was such a good video, had me laughing ❤ thank you guga you’re the best
I feel like he picked wrong items
うん、まじでそうw
He's not there to pick a right one,but it's good to know that kind of food is yuck 🤣🤣the sheff just make look nice but taste yuck
please please please do more Japan videos!!! these are amazing
Guga, thanks for the great videos as always. The video of this trip to Japan is a lot of fun. I also love Japanese convenience store egg sandwiches. On your next trip to Japan, I definitely want you to visit my hometown of Kochi Prefecture.
Convenience store stuff can be quite good there and lots of times they come up with things you cannot buy anywhere else.
I enjoyed these “Japanese series”, would be awesome to see more😉 After having lived there for over a decade, now everything feels nostalgic😅 Keep it up Guga!
i was laughing so hard on this vid.loved it
One of the best episodes
Guga, you always have the BEST reactions to food that you eat. I just love it!
this was my. favorite guga vid
You should make more of these guga❤️
Hi from Japan, Guga!
I understand the food from the expensive store. The small appetizer stuff is at times weird, even to us locals.
Glad you liked the "reasonable" convenience store stuff; they really make your day.
Love the video ❤
This is my favorite video on Guga. The bad food and faces is killing me. Love all his responses lmfao.
Most entertaining video seing Guga trying weird japanese food
Great vid and I've been to Japan several times and love getting my lunch from the convenience stores, so good and the egg salad sandwiches are amazing!!!
That was a great review uncle Guga.
Thank you for sharing these experiences with us. Love watching you go through good and bad food experiences. Your personality and reactions makes the video enjoyable.
Just came back from Japan and fell in love with family mart food!
Great video!
Finally a video of guga hatting everything
I was thinking recently how awesome it would be to check out convenience stores in Japan and of course, Guga has my back!
Guga definitely got some suggestions on the 7-11 menu he got basically all the very recommended stuff!!!! Good job Guga!
7:36 I thought that he didn't like the egg sandwich at first lol. I had that when I was in Japan and was blown away by how good it was, glad to know that Guga also feels the same way!
Only Guga could make eating expensive food so entertaining!. Only Guga could make eating expensive food so entertaining!.
You could do a whole series/channel on the different Japanese snacks. They range from interesting to amazing.
I would love to try Japanese 7-11 some day the food must be great there and seeing guga review it, it makes me want to crave more of it.
Guga out there being real and actually telling if something isn't good. Glad you liked most of it, though. I never tried melon kit kat, but the apple pie one is amazing.
Now I need Guga to recreate his favorites at home
Hi Guga! Great video, I lived over there for 2 years, loved the food. The mayo used in that egg salad was more than likely Kewpie mayo, widely considered the best mayo anywhere. One of my favorite things was a rice ball, with salmon, seaweed and pickled plum. Oh, and their fried chicken is a treat. Take care!
Guga is looking fit as all hell! Good job improving yourself man! I need some of that in my life.
Fit? Far from it! Lol
I really wish I could have seen Guga’s wife laughing at him. I chuckled the entire time.
Food sound effects are Great
I always watch guga for the steaks but this kind of video is actually nice
Your wife making fun of you adds to the video so much! I was finding this so funny too!
Love at 7:50 where Guga does an admirable pronunciation of 'nigiri' when talking about the nori.
I was in Japan a few months ago and fell in love with the strawberry, custard, whip cream sandwiches from 7ii
🤣😂Guga's reactions with those expensive boxes of bad "sushi" just too funny. At least the palate was cleaned with the Wagu sushi.
This episode is GOLD 😂😂
Man I wanna fly all the way to Japan just so I can go to that convenience store now.
GUGA !!!!!! I WATCH EVERY SINGLE GUGAFOOD VIDEO BROTHER I DIDNT KNOW AB THIS CHANNEL !!!!! u so humble
Just subbed. Love your vids
great video do more of these try out vids!
You are a brave man! You could have had a guide to take You around, but you didn't! You embraced the culture & opened my eyes to a place I would love to visit, so thanks for sharing your experiences with us! 👍🏾👍🏾
hahaha funny stuff! Thanks Guga
LOL! PLEASE BE GOOD PLEASE BE GOOD! That was awesome ^.^
One of the reasons I love watching your show except for a bunch of meat experiment is how you always honest with your reaction to the food
Very honest reaction 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
I went to Japan 2019 and I still miss all the delicious food (ramen, wagyu). But I also miss the konbini stores (7-Eleven, FamilyMart etc) a lot with all the yummi snacks, so many ramen bowls to choose from, the onigiri, ready to eat meals and the convenience of being able to get it warmed up/ready to eat in the store. Next time I have to bring and extra bag for all the instant noodles I want to bring home :)
Loved it 👍
That sweet flavor is definitly from the avocado. My grandma had an avocado tree growing up and the avocado grew natrually. They were very sweet and watery almost that we had to spinkle some salt when we would eat them in slices. Home grown avocados taste radicaly diffrent from store bought. And those egg sandwhices were a GODSEND when I lived in Seoul. I ate those every morning on my way to school with a banana milk.
"Candy type cheese"
"What?!"
this reaction was so funny
Thanks. I was undecided before I saw this video.
Going to Tokyo for the first time in Nov 23 and can't wait to try a 7-eleven egg sandwich.
I am a foodie and picky on food and it was a big surprise and I was able to not just survive but also enjoy the food from Japanese convenience stores for one week ski trip. They even have a lot of great stuff in freezer. I love more food from Lawson versus 7-11. Family mart was also ok for some ranges of food.
Guga, you're the best
you would cry since it's not beef Guga lol but this is still funny as hell 😂
