Yaaa, I was quite confused why they kept eating Honestly I would have never eaten it all if it was unpleasant that much 😂💔 But come oooon people, yeast extract for god sake!!! 😂💔
It's part of the culture of politeness in Japan. You always show appreciation for things given to you, even if it's not something you like. Especially food.
Everyone takes a bite, is like, 'whoa, this is unbearably disgusting', and then SOLDIERS THROUGH THE REST WITH ADMIRABLE YET COMPLETELY UNNECESSARY COMMITMENT.
+Miss Communication In Japanese culture wasting any sort of food is treated like a sin, even if it tastes bad. It is tenfold more so if it s food given to you (as opposed to prepared by yourself) because you are disrespecting a gift. Spitting food out is almost unimaginable unless it literally is spoiled and poisonous.
+Mizuki Katakura I would feel horrible if people offered me anything, because I have food sensitivities with caffeine, cinnamon, alcohol, and anything in the onion family. It sucks when something as simple as ramen can kill you because you have a genetic disorder making only ONE ingredient become almost lethal depending on the amount.
Honestly, when I watch these videos I am still amazed at what a all around real, kind, funny person Natsuki is. It's like he doesn't have to act he genuinely enjoys his time and is always getting into fun things and it's like dang man, I gotta be more like Natsuki. If I ever run across a friend like that while traveling I would forever consider myself a lucky guy.
I'm american and tried marmite for the 1st time 2 years ago at 33 years old. Instantly fell in love with the stuff. Now I order marmite through amazon. It takes a month to ship from the U.K. Love marmite with butter on toast in the morning.
This happened when i went to a Japanese restaurant last year, some poor guy had never heard of wasabi and took a very big spoonful. The look on his face haha!
I had a german friend once who grabbed my jar of marmite thinking it was some obscure branding of nutella and had a tablespoon of it whole. I could've stopped and warned him I guess but let's be honest...
+Ty Nakamura It's a part of many asiatic cultures to finish any meal given to you. It's a policy I actually try to follow myself as it promotes not wasting food.
I immediately thought of natto, which is why I thought they might actually get Marmite. My Japanese teacher said she hates natto, so it's not just weserners. I get acquired tastes, but I could never enjoy natto how ever many times I tried-although it's better than chawanmushi (steamed egg custard) which is like eggy snot.
Natto was a food that came to mind as I watched this, though part of me thought it might be not-hated. Probably could have been served better, but I could see it working along other condiments often used.
I've not had natto (or been to Japan), but did have sea slug in the Philippines. I was warned by my host that it wasn't agreeable to most Westerners, but I like to try new things. My goodness, that is just awful. Queue serious laughter at the disgust on my face.
Judging by their game-shows where they get dragged round gravel courses on their bare backsides, enduring pain in silence and with fortitude must be part of the Japanese psyche!
You're traught to finish your food from an early age in Japan, it's not really in their culture to put food to the side out of respect. It's fun for us though :')
@@Sharmac77 Well it's kinda the point to try to much, so the reactions are over the top.. You gotta let the people have a decent amount xD and than maybe show them how to eat it the correct way, later
Rachel & Jun Never tried Marmite, its texture is very different to Vegemite. I have given vegemite to some Japanese and the reactions were not as bad as the marmite. Of course you don't spread it on that thick for first timers, that's the key. I never ate vegemite as a kid, but one day I woke up wanting to eat it, now I like it. It's an acquired taste.
My first experience with Marmite was jamming the knife in the jar, getting a great BIG blob, slathering it on a slice of bread, and Stuffing it in my face... First thought: OH... DEAR... LORD...!!! WHAT... HAVE... I... PUT... IN... MY... MOUTH??!! But, I Like it now! The label says "spread thinly", and they mean it! Seriously!! Marmite and a strong cheese like sharp cheddar make a really nice sandwich.
MSP Redgrave There is a way to eat Marmite and this guy in the video doesn't know how. This is how... 1. Toast bread 2. Butter it. (As soon as it has popped) 3. Spread the marmite evenly but only use a very little bit. No more than a teaspoon as a guide. (proper teaspoon) Note* - Make sure butter is soft enough to melt nicely
I went to the British store yesterday and bought and tried some for myself (very thinly spread, like people in these comments have recomended). I actually quite like it, the taste of yeast combined with the salty flavour is alright. I guess it is all about the way you spread it (there's a reason it comes in tiny jars!).
japanese people are educated in primary that wasting food is a disgrace. Everyone were fed the same meals every day and cannot get off their seat if they don't finish it. So it doesn't matter how much you hate a food you'd have to eat it (except if you're allergic).
***** Don't eat marmite like that. Have it on some nice buttered toast with some cream cheese, and a little drizzle over the cream cheese and spread it. It may look horrible but the cream cheese really takes off the edge. OR just have a little bit of it with hot buttered toast :P
I saw that too. Took bite made face and turned and offered to friend! Too funny. Like the version of "honey smell this" game 😳 with containers from the fridge my husband likes to do. I no longer sniff anything he hands me! Only took 31 years of marriage! 🤣
0:00 Natsuki: "Look its... look its good. Ah sweet, chocolate! Wow!... but... smell..? mhm... terrible..." and then at 2:00 he sniffs it and instantly goes "drugs"
+TerminalHamster - I tried marmite and vegemite in the "correct way". Toasted bread, butter, and a finger dab of the brown. It still wasn't good. It's like a salty ass, bitter soy sauce. It tastes weird with bread and butter. I think it'll be better if you use it in cooking to add "umami", but on toast... hell no.
Its funny because whenever people try Marmite or Vegemite they put on a MASSIVE amount and obviously it would be terrible!! It is of course the best when you have butter and toast and a small amount! but of course its all about the reaction hahahah
I ate marmite once, while I was visiting in the UK. My own INSTANT reaction, which I still remember perfectly because of just how quickly the words came to me: "This tastes like someone distilled pure sadness!"
I had similar reactions to sharing some Russian foods with my Asian (Chinese, Laotian, Thai) roommates when I first moved out on my own. They did not like the heaviness of the foods, the pungency of borsch, acidity of cabbage, and the abundant malt flavors in the bread and kvas. Asian cuisines tend to be rather light and mellow in tastes, and are very low in foods like breads and roots and so on. The Chinese guys did like vodka, because it was like their native baiju. They eventually learned to be okay with cabbage soup, provided I made it less strongly flavored (I also took to putting bamboo shoots and bean sprouts in it). Nobody ever came around to kvas, ogurtsy, hleb, chebureki, spraty, or borsch. Kompot was an instant hit, as were pelmeni and blinchiki. The heavier the food and overbearing its flavor, the less the Asians seemed to like it. Their foods are full of complex but light flavors. They don't have anything like borsch, where the whole thing is beet flavor surrounded by beets and a side of beets.
Yes, my son buys Japanese snacks and sweets online from a wholesaler in Britain. Occasionally, he lets me try some, especially those with unusual flavours. Yesterday, I tried salted lemon flavour crackers. That sounds quite awful to Westerners and I was a bit hesitant. But actually, they were a really nice, a delicate flavour. I would certainly pick these up if they were available in my local supermarket.
I wonder how they'd like ukha. When I made mine it was absolutely delicious, the roommates loved it too. It was very light and addictive to say the least.
Nah, it's just unfamiliar taste. Unlike Japan and some other countries like Mongolia, the rest of Asia heavily uses spices in their food. Try our "tempoyak" which is basically a fermented durian, and taste how heavy it is.
You forgot to tell them that you don't get a good sense of marmite unless you eat 10 slices, and it's very rude not to eat all of them. Then wash it all down with a refreshing pitcher of marmiteade.
Your videos are a blast! And the people you know seem like really good folks. It almost makes me want to leave my house and give people another chance! ..almost..
I love marmite. A spoonful mixed in to Baked Beans, on Cheese On Toast, with hot toast with coffee in the morning. The main thing is it says on the jar “spread thinly”.
You'll notice that they a. don't spit it out and b. finish the rest, even though they hate it, because in Japanese culture it is rude to refuse food given to you, even if it tastes awful.
I went to a Korean market and you have to be careful. Those Korean grandmas offer you a big old bite of fresh kimchee if they are making it. Now I love kimchee fresh, aged, in pancakes but that little gramma put so much in my mouth(yes they feed it to you by hand you just say thank you) I almost choked after that first time I now ask for small bite please.
For anyone dragged up it's probably awful. When you know how to cook and have some old books on English cooking it's a lot more varied and interesting than you think.
Does that explain America's rise? Also all the fat, sweaty morons gambolling around the States. Germany had a small empire but their food is terrible, then you have Sweden, Norway...
@@The_Gallowglass maybe some people arent into Yeast. For example i wouldnt eat cheese, mushrooms, yogurth or drink alcohol. go ahead consume as much yeast as you want... ill pass
Oh man I absolutely loved this one! As a first generation American I know all about the Marmite, my pops and grandparents are obsessed with that garbage and mince meat pies!! Blegh!!😂🤣I love how your friends still ate the whole thing though and probably thanked you afterwords too!! So polite!!🙏丁寧

They all just keep eating. And I swear, Natsuki's face looked like he wanted to try another marmite toast for just two seconds lol
I'm guessing they're forcing themselves to finish the piece as a gesture of respect.
i love how they're so determined to finish it
Y2Kforthewin I noticed that too! Is it like a culture thing where they all don't wanna be defeated by a piece of bread. XD
Is because in their culture wasting food is something really bad.
I feel like I heard it's impolite to not eat food given to you, even it's you hate it. Maybe not tho.
It's part of the culture of politeness in Japan. You always show appreciation for things given to you, even if it's not something you like. Especially food.

My favourite part is how each Japanese person victimised by the Marmite then becomes so enthusiastic in inflicting the pain on the next victim.
Looks of disgust on their faces with dramatic music playing while a british man laughs at them. And so begins the vicious cycle that is Marmite
It never ended.

@@palmitho what racism? I am not white I cannot be racist
@@palmitho Nice ego stroking there. “African man steal your wife”. Whats next? We wuz kangz?
He made a joke, get over it.
I had similar reactions to sharing some Russian foods with my Asian (Chinese, Laotian, Thai) roommates when I first moved out on my own. They did not like the heaviness of the foods, the pungency of borsch, acidity of cabbage, and the abundant malt flavors in the bread and kvas.
Asian cuisines tend to be rather light and mellow in tastes, and are very low in foods like breads and roots and so on. The Chinese guys did like vodka, because it was like their native baiju. They eventually learned to be okay with cabbage soup, provided I made it less strongly flavored (I also took to putting bamboo shoots and bean sprouts in it). Nobody ever came around to kvas, ogurtsy, hleb, chebureki, spraty, or borsch. Kompot was an instant hit, as were pelmeni and blinchiki.
The heavier the food and overbearing its flavor, the less the Asians seemed to like it. Their foods are full of complex but light flavors. They don't have anything like borsch, where the whole thing is beet flavor surrounded by beets and a side of beets.
If your borsch tastes like that then it's crap and they are right to dislike it !
Yes, my son buys Japanese snacks and sweets online from a wholesaler in Britain. Occasionally, he lets me try some, especially those with unusual flavours.
Yesterday, I tried salted lemon flavour crackers. That sounds quite awful to Westerners and I was a bit hesitant. But actually, they were a really nice, a delicate flavour. I would certainly pick these up if they were available in my local supermarket.
How can anyone dislike Kvas! Heresy!
I wonder how they'd like ukha. When I made mine it was absolutely delicious, the roommates loved it too. It was very light and addictive to say the least.
Nah, it's just unfamiliar taste. Unlike Japan and some other countries like Mongolia, the rest of Asia heavily uses spices in their food. Try our "tempoyak" which is basically a fermented durian, and taste how heavy it is.
This looks like one of those Japanese games shows where they torture their contestants for cheap laughs.
4 years later and I'm wondering: Where's the update with Ryotaro eating Marmite?
You forgot to tell them that you don't get a good sense of marmite unless you eat 10 slices, and it's very rude not to eat all of them.
Then wash it all down with a refreshing pitcher of marmiteade.

I dont think that he wanted to kill them...
lovely
Brilliant!😁
I guess you eat 10 because your tongue goes numb so you don't actually have any taste after the first slice of bread?
Your videos are a blast! And the people you know seem like really good folks. It almost makes me want to leave my house and give people another chance! ..almost..
Lets open!...lets open. Nice smell! Marmite smell.
Nice smell. Marmite smell.
Yoonseok That bit had me rolling 🤣
I love how they keep eating even after finding out its incredibly gross, so polite! :D
I love marmite. A spoonful mixed in to Baked Beans, on Cheese On Toast, with hot toast with coffee in the morning. The main thing is it says on the jar “spread thinly”.
Try marmite and cheese crumpets. Delish 😋
nicely browned white toast, generous amount of butter & thin layer of marmite! with maybe cheese or tomato 👽👽👽👽
You'll notice that they a. don't spit it out and b. finish the rest, even though they hate it, because in Japanese culture it is rude to refuse food given to you, even if it tastes awful.
But what if the food is too much to eat?
I went to a Korean market and you have to be careful. Those Korean grandmas offer you a big old bite of fresh kimchee if they are making it. Now I love kimchee fresh, aged, in pancakes but that little gramma put so much in my mouth(yes they feed it to you by hand you just say thank you) I almost choked after that first time I now ask for small bite please.
The funny thing is, they all eat it, even though they think it's awful. Here in the west we'd just throw it away.
It's a Japanese thing, you don't back out of a challenge and see it through to the (bitter) end
Did he say, “oh marmite... good desu!” Cuz boi, that had me on a giggle spree!
Where do I go to download Netsuke's final Marmite rap as my ringtone? Easily your best video yet.
This is great and all, but they should try Surströmming.
Boomforce SWEDISHHHH STYLEEEE!!!!!!!!
James Garland It is indeed that kind of fish.
Boomforce Rhett and Link from GMM and Pewdiepie wouldn't even attempt to eat that once they opened it. UGHHH... I could smell it through the screen.
James Garland It smells so bad that this happened.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surstr%C3%B6mming#German_eviction
Oh god, I have smelled it, never eaten it, but I never want to eat it anyways. It's probably one of the worst swedish dishes.
I love Marmite, it was spread way way too thick on the bread. I spread it thinly on toast with real butter. Its fantastic.
I'm Korean and I actually began to love Marmite and Vegemite while living in Korea lol
I love Natsuki, he's so funny.
Do you remember me still Chris? It's great your channel has grown so much and your videos are still as great as ever! Love you man :)
Harry It's been too long Harry. Too long! Of course I remember.
***** yeah, I think we all have an Aunt Harry.
Harry You're a wizard, Harry!
Me and Chris were tight buds back in the comments sections of his older videos. No need to get jealous lads
Andersfc1000 Aunt Harry the Wizard, the adventures of Harry Potter the auror going undercover as a woman to infiltrate the Magical Mafia :D
This is the worst war crime that's ever been committed on Japanese soil
yet to be proven...
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Don't expect an apology!
@Frank Begbie 😂😂
Well, I can think of a few others...
The editing and cuts to the reactions are just excellent.
A modern experiment that shows why a tiny island nation became such a dominant world-wide empire, nobody wanted to go home and eat British food!
After inducing a sufficient number of Indians to move to Britain and open curry restaurants, the British returned home, saying, "Our work is done!"
As a British person, I can vouch for this. It's not all horrible, but it is all dense and stodgy. Marmite is torture though.
when he said tiny island nation he meant the uk...
For anyone dragged up it's probably awful. When you know how to cook and have some old books on English cooking it's a lot more varied and interesting than you think.
Does that explain America's rise? Also all the fat, sweaty morons gambolling around the States. Germany had a small empire but their food is terrible, then you have Sweden, Norway...
You've got some really cool friends :)
Western people: Asian food is so weird
Asian people: western food is so weird
Me: *Stop eating altogether*
Im pretty sure even brits regard the marmite the work of an evil mad scientist
@@sernoddicusthegallant6986 lol im japanese grew up in australia and i actually enjoy vegemite (very similar to marmite)
The entire world : british food is so disgusting
All people: marmite is bad
Natsuki's advert was funny. Honestly, this video just got better and better! I couldn't believe they all finished it!
My stomach hurts from laughing, lmfao, a symbol of friendship.. & who knew you could beatbox!
Further proof that everyone who doesn't like Marmite is just eating it wrong.
He overloaded the bread with it. Don't need much to enjoy it! He spoiled the experience for them.
@@patrickkirwan3353 They didn't toast it either.
@@The_Gallowglass maybe some people arent into Yeast. For example i wouldnt eat cheese, mushrooms, yogurth or drink alcohol. go ahead consume as much yeast as you want... ill pass
@@AFFI909 it just tastes metallic really, not really yeasty.
Exactly!
Bread + Marmite = YUM .... "Yum? Not Yum." Hahaha too good.
Oh man I absolutely loved this one! As a first generation American I know all about the Marmite, my pops and grandparents are obsessed with that garbage and mince meat pies!! Blegh!!😂🤣I love how your friends still ate the whole thing though and probably thanked you afterwords too!! So polite!!🙏丁寧
Isn't this the British equivalent of Natto?
@SimulationEvolve You're crazy. Natto is 10x worse.
Exactly i just commented that.
Whatto?
Natto is great what
@@leaillex what's Natto, is it like Vegemite (which is a bit like Marmite)?
Every time Natauki raps, I just think “I want a pencil” 🤣
His lyrics are straight fire 🔥
