Imagine having a partner that’s equally as much as a foodie as you. The unlimited amount of vending machines are phenomenal. This is why I appreciate Japanese culture so much.
Some of those are really hard to get in America...therefore it wouldn't be a "cup noodle" if it was 3x the price, would it? edit: also it's imported so it will cost more. I never had a shrimp one but the new recipe is actually really good with more veg...
Wow I never thought I would be getting hungry watching people eat delicious looking food from vending machines!! 😂 Ramen and soba noodles looked pretty good for 300 yen! Cheaper than seven eleven 😆 So wholesome! ❤
Nah. Liberals in the US would fight against it accusing those machines would cause obesity. My kids' school's vending machines now only contain trash (aka. healthy) foods/drinks that no kid would waste money on.
It's amazing what a country's technology can go towards when it's not mostly focused into military affairs. Imagine the progress of humanity if we didn't have to worry about the potential of wars against one another. All efforts in technology would funnel into the economy instead. Japan has many great examples of this. Great stuff.
Really? So if I go to one of those places where I order ramen and wait behind the counter and then eat it it’s not that much? I’ll have like 3 bowls of it!
@@101Spacetime depends where you go but getting cheap healthy food is definitely a thing in japan, where as in the west it's impossible. You could get healthier ready made meal in the west but they would be still quite expensive and have barely anything in them

It's insane cause all these machines and technology was invented and popularised in the 70s,80s during Japan's technogical renaissance but somewhere along the way Japan fell into stagnation and all these machines and technology like the retro futuristic sci Fi punk tech in fallout became relics of the past.imagine where japanese vending machines would be today if the trend carried on
Today's vending machines in Japan are more technologically advanced. The ones presented here are no longer in use because they are not user-friendly. They are loved as retro. You seem to know nothing about Japan.

Try visiting Japan, these vending machines are obsolete because they’re all replaced by Conbini, convenience stores. You can get whole a lot of things are convenience store they is open 24hrs 365 days out of the year. They sell snacks to freshly fried food to 50 different drinks to well just everything from condiments to underwear to shampoos to clothes to all. Yeah they’re replaced by convenience stores. Every 3 min there’s a convenience store in Japan if you live in Tokyo. We do still have vending machines, it’s usually right outside of an apartment, school, in the company premises etc. whenever you want something now just going downstairs. But most people head to convince store 3-5 min walk. In 100 square meters I probably have 7 convenience stores I can access to plus supermarkets. We don’t need these anymore.
@@jont2576 what are you bubbling on and on without knowing anything about Japan? Are you mad? Japan is a very advanced nation you don’t even know what you are missing in the West. Yeah I lived in the US and convenience store even doesn’t meet any standard of these 50 year old vending machines that serve delicious food. Instead stale hot dogs and carcinogenic pops and stale unhealthy food who knows when it would expire.

Greeting from the USA! Japan never ceases to amaze me, I hope to travel there someday. This is just fascinating to see vintage and obscure vending machines I’ve never heard of before! Love how many things you both tried. The Cup Noodle, toasted sandwich and ramen machines were my favorites. Makes American vending machines look so boring in comparison. Usually it’s just candy bars or other snacks we can get anywhere.
This place is getting a lot of attention lately by TH-camrs. Dancing Bacons, Ericsurf6, etc. Everybody's following the same trail. I love that these ancient gnarly vending machines are still maintained and working even after maybe 50 years or so. On my to-do list for sure.
@@sugoumajapanfood It sounds insane, but I'm actually considering to fly from USA to Japan just to visit that vending machine park (plus lots of other things I miss in Japan of course :-))
Yea, they presumably have to keep being refilled so the companies that maintain them must all still exist, I guess similar ones exist elsewhere even if these are old?
Really is impressive to see so many vending machines together and how they all operate. Definitely would be nice to see something similar in the states and other parts of the world. I’m just trying to figure out what the upkeep cost of this would be for not just keeping these in operation but also for keeping the vending machines full of food and other products.
This system is much better than terrible public canteens. Solves a bunch of problems for people like me who can't eat fried/fatty food. I would always take soup from those vending machines.
The Japan Nissin Cup noodles seems to have more in it the US version. Cup noodles great as a snack as well as Ramen. Sometimes making Ramen noodles will use chicken seasoning package with a can of tuna and fresh chopped garlic. 🥰
I loved the little fried rice bento that came out! All that food looked so good! I would never expect that kind of quality from a vending machine in America! I feel so cheated!

@@cindimams4394 Ok so I'm watching a video and had no idea there was a Japanese market in Edgewater...Lol Thank you So much I definitely gotta go there! SOON 😁😁😁
I really need one of each machine! Looks amazing, a whole bowl of soup... From a vending machine! Love Japan! Vending machines, street food vender/restaurant/carts/ trucks, capsule hotel/motels, internet cafes, privet capsule work spaces, sleeper train/buses that are moving hotels, and ferries that I consider five star cruise ships!!!! ✨ 💖 ✨ 🇯🇵 ✨ 💖 ✨
😅 Japan indeed has pretty interesting culture and cool stuff that only exists in Japan for sure. Btw those are not soup but noodles. Ramen noodles in the first one and buckwheat soba noodles, Japanese style curry rice, fried rice and even tuna sandwiches wrapped in foil. Very interesting place! I never got hungry before by vending machine food until now 😂
It’s true. I live in Tokyo and just in downstairs right outside of my apartment there are a few vending machines that has like 20 different cold and hot drinks from various kinds of sweeten and unsweetened tea to coffee to juice to pops to all. Two doors down there are other vending machines that have 20 plus different drinks etc. Then I walk 3 min and I have a super market three times bigger than regular US version of convenience stores that is open late till midnight. I walk 5 min to another direction I have 24 hr open super market that I can get pretty much everything. We love convenience for sure. These old retro style vending machines are often located not in big city but smaller suburban areas where you would need a car to travel.
I had to argue with someone that Japan has more advanced vending machines than the U.S.. You can straight up get fresh squeezed orange juice out of a vending machine in Japan as well as freshly cooked food. The vending machines cook better food than what is cooked by hand in the U.S.. I say this as an American.
Sorry for the bad english. I want to go to japan with my gf, and hope enjoy the machines like you and your wife, looks magic how you enjoy together, simply one of the best videos on youtube

I love this video so many types of ramen that we don't see here in the United States, Wish we had these machines here in NYC but people here don't know how to take care of stuff unfortunately!!
We have a Japanese market in edgewater called Mitsua check it out. Good stuff there.

カレー自販機を復活させた熱意に脱帽だ。
I really need one of each machine! Looks amazing, a whole bowl of soup... From a vending machine! Love Japan! Vending machines, street food vender/restaurant/carts/ trucks, capsule hotel/motels, internet cafes, privet capsule work spaces, sleeper train/buses that are moving hotels, and ferries that I consider five star cruise ships!!!!

Thanks for your comment!
I'll make a video inspired by what you think you like about Japan😄
😅 Japan indeed has pretty interesting culture and cool stuff that only exists in Japan for sure. Btw those are not soup but noodles. Ramen noodles in the first one and buckwheat soba noodles, Japanese style curry rice, fried rice and even tuna sandwiches wrapped in foil. Very interesting place! I never got hungry before by vending machine food until now 😂
@@KittenBowl1 we should just call it super good! You won't find this in the US, at least not in my area. 😔
ハンバーガーは46年ぐらい前におばあちゃんに買ってもらい、よく食べました
今思えば、そんなに美味しい物では無く、懐かしさで、食べたくなりました。
蕎麦も、ラーメンも、カップヌードルも、全部食べました。
懐かしいです。 お爺ちゃん、お婆ちゃんに、感謝です。
玉置浩二のメロディーを聴くと思い出します
こんなに全部食べ切れたのですか、、？
すごい、、
コメントありがとうございます！
お腹いっぱいになりました笑
カップ麺のお湯の入れ方バカウケた😂
コメントありがとうございます！
すごいお湯の入れ方ですよね😄
We need this all kind of vending machines here in Philippines 🇵🇭
Thanks for commenting from the Philippines!
Are there many vending machines in the Philippines?
@@sugoumajapanfood sad to say that.. there is no vending machine here like u have on your country...😔😔
懐かしいさ満載ですね ハンバーガーとか 熱すぎるときあるんですよね 今なかなか見なくなった ラーメンの自販機とか 今 たまに見かけるのは 高速のパーキングて ニチレイの焼きおにぎりとか ホッドドックとか
ハンバーガーくらきなのかな😆あこんなにあったら
小遣い 使い果たしてしまいそ😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆
With one vending machine (自動販売機, jidōhanbaiki) per an approximate 30 people, Japan has one of the world's highest vending machine densities ❤🎉
Thanks for your comment!
I didn't know the vending density was that high😳
It’s true. I live in Tokyo and just in downstairs right outside of my apartment there are a few vending machines that has like 20 different cold and hot drinks from various kinds of sweeten and unsweetened tea to coffee to juice to pops to all. Two doors down there are other vending machines that have 20 plus different drinks etc. Then I walk 3 min and I have a super market three times bigger than regular US version of convenience stores that is open late till midnight. I walk 5 min to another direction I have 24 hr open super market that I can get pretty much everything. We love convenience for sure. These old retro style vending machines are often located not in big city but smaller suburban areas where you would need a car to travel.
Truly the enlightened way to live. So often I want something but I have to get in the car and drive all the way to the grocery store.
まだコンビニも無い昭和の時代、24時間営業のオートスナックにある、これらの自販機は、心のオアシスでした、何日間も風呂に入れず、走り続ける長距離トラックの運転手は、中々食堂に入れず、また、ゆっくり、食事する時間も無く、これらの自販機で食事ができて、助けられました、いつまでも貴重な自販機を残してもらいたいです。
역시 자판기의 천국!!
It's so interesting. I wish I could visit there in the future.
.....there has to be temp chef's behind the machines wiping up a dish really quick 😂😂❤️❤️🔥🔥
Thanks for your comment!
It's a quality that makes me think there's a person in the vending machine😃
I wish they had food vending machines in the us
That fortune vending machine was amazing. I can imagine it saying "Cash only. Take it and get out of my face. Next!"
Mesin makanan yang bikin perut penuh dan kenyang 🤗🍞
Terima kasih telah berkomentar dari Indonesia!
Kira kira cocok gak kalo di indo ada mesin gini, terutama makanan hangat
またこうゆう自販機が復活して欲しいなー若い子には新しくて私ら世代には懐かしい、みんな楽しい♪この場所パラダイス過ぎる😊
It takes some skill to pull it out! Loved the Coke Vending machine!
Thanks for your comment!
I love the Coke vending machine, too, and would love to have one in my house!
Your commentary is so refreshing to head because most of the TH-camrs I see don’t talk much when they go to Japan as far as I’ve seen 😭
Thank you for your kind comments, my friend😆
They have a vending machine that can give you a legit meal, while here in the US, a bottle of Pepsi still gets stuck in the vending machine. 😑
🤣
4:47 that cup o noodles looks miles above of what we have in the states. we are lucky to have a couple of dried up corn kernels.
Yet 2022 41.9% of Americans considered obese. 🤔
かなり大食いですね！
色々食べれて幸せですな！
観てるこっちが楽しいです
コメントありがとうございます！
すごくお腹を減らしてから行ったんですがそれでもお腹いっぱいになりました😄
I had to argue with someone that Japan has more advanced vending machines than the U.S.. You can straight up get fresh squeezed orange juice out of a vending machine in Japan as well as freshly cooked food. The vending machines cook better food than what is cooked by hand in the U.S.. I say this as an American.
신기 하네요😁 맛있게다🍴🍛
코멘트 감사합니다! 앞으로도 자동판매기의 동영상을 전달하겠습니다!
Sorry for the bad english.
I want to go to japan with my gf, and hope enjoy the machines like you and your wife, looks magic how you enjoy together, simply one of the best videos on youtube
Thanks for the nice comment! Please keep watching our videos😆
The ramen vending machine uses nixie tubes! A bear to replace if they ever go out. Hope the Ukrainians make a compatible part.
Broken vending machines are repaired by the owner of this store himself!
What’s a nixie tube ?
They're readily available online or at stores in Akihabara. Nixie tubes lasts for a long time.
@@gooner7768 before LED 7 segment displays there were nixie tubes. They're vacuum tubes but their primary purpose is not signal amplification, but to display digits or other info. There is a layer of screens inside and a pin on the bottom for each screen. Applying current to a pin causes the corresponding screen to heat up and glow.
@@DanielJoyce cheers for the explanation and sorry I didn’t reply earlier. Just realized this reply.
