in your hands when you're outside on a cold day.

In Japan the best way for us to do this is with steamed buns.

And today, we're going to show you a lot of them.

[M] And this one right now is really cute.

It's like a special edition bun and I really freaked out when I walked into the store.

[S] Get on your bike you cute girl!

[M] We picked a special day to film, ducky!

[S] The special edition bun wasn't even part of our filming schedule.

It wasn't part of our plan [M] It's just amazing guys!

[S] We saw it, so we just figured: "You know what, let's just show you guys."

[M] We're just gonna show you. [S] Okay.

So, this right here is a little chicken bun, which I thought might be a chicken,

I'm not too sure. It's got an upside-down heart, and then it has like a really shrivelly penis on there, on top.

So... [M] Mine is ...(?) [S] You got the wrong one!

Where is your's? Your's is in the other one.

[M] Probably should have done more research on this.

[S] We should've!

[M] We did, we're like "I want dat chicken bun!"

Shaped like a chicken, I'm getting that chicken bun!

And then everyone's like, "What are those things?"

We're like, "Uhhh..."

[S] Do you see that little steam coming through

[M] Oh wow

[S] Marshmallow bread-y magic on the outside, steam

So you got the little glossy texture, doesn't stick to your fingers.

Inside filled with sweet onions and meat and gravy.

[M] Chicken on the inside is super flavorful. [S] Mmm [M] This tastes like a chicken stew.

They took a chicken stew [S] Oh my god [M] chopped it up and poured it inside.

Normally in North America if you bought anything this cheap the meat would be

quite either bouncy or gristly

[S] Yeah

[M] But this meat tastes like actual chicken meat.

If you're coming to Japan and you've made yourself an itinerary

and that itinerary does not include visiting a convenience store, you need to schedule it back in.

[S] I saw somebody's itinerary recently. They wanted two hours in Shibuya crossing, dude

It's a crosswalk. You got two stop lights, and then you're through.

You don't need to be there for two hours.

But you do need [M] Is to eat convenience store buns [S] Is to eat convenience store buns [M] for two hours

[S] I just realized the problem with steamed buns is that you eat them so quickly and then your hands get cold again

I think the only solution to this is more steamed buns

[M] I have to agree with you, but I have no idea how you chewed that so fast.

[S] This was my first meal of the day girl.

It's 2:32 and I've been awake since 9, and I ate nothing!

This is love ladies and gentlemen. I have to feed my big boy.

[S] *quacks*

[M] He breaks chairs. [S] I gotta work out today

Mm well that was delightful. Let's go to another store!

[M] Pizza man~ When you're not sure what time of day it is it's always time for

Pizzaaa mann~

This is basically a Japanese hot pocket

It's got cheese and meat and tomato sauce and it has been stuffed lovingly inside of this orange, steamed bun

which looks a lot like a pizza pocket. I think it was probably a year and a half ago that our friend said

"Oh have you ever had a thing called, like, a pizza man?"

And we're like, "What's that?" and we went to a convenience store. [S] I thought he was trying to be Jamaican

He's like hey you ever have a pizza man [M] Like pizza man and we're like why [S] You're from North Carolina?

Why are you even trying that?

[M] Not sure Lawson's is my favourite already because there's no cheese component in here.

[S] Where's the cheese at Lawson

This just tastes like [M] tomato sauce [S] spaghetti sauce

[M] that's been stuffed inside of a bun. Not my favourite one. [S] Where's the pizza?

Where's the meat at? Where's the cheese at?

You're missing very many components of a pizza. [M] This should be called tomato sauce bun.

[S] Saucy bun.

[M] I gave it a 2 out of 5 because the sauce-y one is actually good

[S] This is super frustrating we went to another 7-eleven in which they

had these amazing curry cheese ones that we wanted to try out.

They had them on display and they're like,

"Yeah, no no we can't sell those right now."

And I'm not sure if they were just supposed to be display models or whatnot, but the whole thing was full!

And they couldn't sell us any!

So we're at another 7-eleven, but they don't have the cheese curry ones here.

But they do have more pizza man though~

Let's go try some pizza mans~

[M] This pizza man already looks so much cheesier, I'm gonna go in and have a bite.

Hmm okay, tastes like a hot pocket was stuffed inside a fluffy piece of bread Simon.

[S] That half is mine. [M] Oh...

Please don't eat my cheese. Please don't eat my I would give this four to five Pizza mans. Ducky, you gotta try it, okay

I could already tell this one looks significantly better than the last one

Are you serious right now

This is the best pizza pocket I've had in my life

That's amazing. This is why you have to go try different convenience stores. Let's go try some more

So we stopped at the mini stop to see what their bun selection was like this is the me cumin

Which is just plain old brown meat. Oh?

Yes

Mercy

Look at that ah this is what I'm talking about you feel the warmth in your fingertips the steam rise-- Martina didn't even wait!

By the time simon finishes talking and eating I still won't be done in time

That's not true at all make it seem as if I rush my eating

You have like a really super sweet white onion flavor

[M] And then you have the pork. [S] If I could just rip off a little pieces of this and dip this into a soup this bread

will absorb anything

[S] Why do we only order like one and split half of each? [M] Because we're about to eat like nine of them altogether

Our last video is of a restaurant. That's $600 a person and you're telling me. We got to split these dollar buns. between the

the two of us? [M] Do you know why? It's because we've spent 600 dollars on dinner ;A; This is our life, $1 dollar buns.

This is a special edition, ooh

So this is the purin one. They have a pudding inside here. I've no idea no idea, but it's gonna whirring hot

I'm really nervous that that's gonna be like explosive lava

I'm not even sure if we should rip this open

Japanese people died eating a scalding hot purin. You want to rip this open and see what it looks like inside?

Yeah, yes, we are gonna do it Oh?

God oh

Boy, oh boy. Oh gosh. Oh boy. Oh boy. Oh boy. Oh boy. Oh boy? Oh?

Gosh I am excited for this one. This is a sweet one. Okay, if it's filled with pudding

It's gonna be sweet majority of them are savory M: this is different on top as well. It's got a little chocolate on top

It's got a bit of a jelly bite to it. Okay, no that was gross

I want to do a video about things that make me happy. This is not something that makes me happy. It's not bad

I just think that the purin on the inside tastes like a beautiful warm pudding and then the texture of the bun

Tastes more like a sweet, bun, and you don't really want the two to like come together

Is it terrible? terrible no

but

Obviously it's not that bad

I'll eat anything

I'm hungry. I'll eat anything right now. I bend down and pick up an insect. There's the McDonalds right there

I'm willing to finish this video and McDonalds. I'm so hungry. This splitting of half-bun bullshit

Got one more bunsie for you to split with me

Oh boy no no

The ministop pizzamaaaaan!!

That looks good alright. I was skeptical at first because it's it's a lot puffier than the other buns.

Yes, this one doesn't have as much stuffing as a 7-eleven definitely doesn't but has got more cheese than the Lawson's one

Okay, let's find out okay here we go

Hmm it needs more filling mm-hmm

I think this one is definitely seasoned better mm-hmm

Than the 7-eleven one but they skimp way too much on the stuffing not enough pizza pocket

[S[This is like in Christmas time [M] Will he eat anything folks? [S] I'll eat anything. [M] Yes, he will. I did that to see if you ate it

He ate it all right

The paper on the back is not edible so don't eat the paper bit Simon

Can't believe you ate that. I literally ground up that bun put it in your mouth, and you were like mm-kay

A giant white foreigner was seen running around crazy in the parking lot of a mini stop in Kichijoji police were called and they said

apparently he was just hungry

I guess they had it, so we saw another 7-eleven along the way and we decided to check if they had the cheese curry one and

[S] Here's one for you [M] Oh my god it says curry on it, so cuuuute!!

one for me

Why did we get one each is this

what happens when I let you go in? [S] You know why? Now I can actually feel my hands getting warm. The whole

point of this, [M] let me take your crotch bag, [S] this is a cold day and these warm up your hands very nicely

hahahaha, oh

Oh boy this may be why it's sold out everywhere look at this

This one right here looks like the granddaddy of them all I think I know why they were sold out everywhere because it smells amazing

If you guys have seen our Coco curry video. You'll know that Japan is really big on curry. It's not the Indian curry you're thinking

It's not Indonesian. It's not like you know it's their own

Curry, and it looks like it's cheddar and vanilla and vanilla vanilla cheese vanillan cheddar!

No, it's nice cheddar-mozarella rolling dope-ass cheese son. This is some dope-ass cheese

Okay, that's why it's always sold out

This is the best one we had all day mm-hmm, but has those flavors that you get with like a dark beef

Curry instead of it being like a sweeter pork taste, and they have big chunks of onions in here

It's not spicy at all. Oh, it's so nice, and you can see the thinness ratio

This is what we were saying that the other place definitely has to say I think 7-eleven gets the stuffing ratio right

We didn't go to a Family Mart

Which we were supposed to go to like all the different chains. Simon's bike batteries almost gone. Okay, you know

I don't want to like actually like bike like a like a like a like a farmer

All those farmers on their bikes

Battery to guide my fat ass from convenience store to convenience store

So I can eat more buns, aint got no battery that means bun video's over

Our video is not over

We would be remiss if we did this whole video on steamed buns and ignored Family Mart

What are we are we quitters are we quitters?

We are thorough in our research here, so this one right here is a cheese dakgalkbi man

I which is a Korean thing this tastes somewhat legitimately accurate it has like the gochujang taste to it

It's got the cabbage to you know it shredded chicken in a way mm-hmm. It's good. It. Just doesn't taste like dakgalbi

The bun doesn't match it at all and there is nothing sweet about dakgalbi

What I will say is that that was a very stuffed, bun. Yeah you opened it up and

Just all the way through

Family Mart is very thorough with their stuffing so far

Boy oh gosh

That's an unfair tear

This didn't tear as evenly I was hoping it would be this last pizza bun

I don't think it's fair for you to have all that cheese

So I think it's only fair for me to have all that cheese. No, that's not fair either

I'm gonna try to reform the pizza bun together. What and

Chemisty pinch it. Are you sure oh gosh all right from the get-go this already looks a little bit, too

Saucy it does my opinion. Let's try it out

That's the best cheese out of any of the pizza buns this really tastes like a pizza pocket

yeah more so than the other ones day, but it's definitely not as meaty as the other one

It's just tomato sauce and cheese

What's your first place the best pizza bun in a convenience store is?

Without a doubt that was the winner winner chicken dinner. There is a tiny dog prancing across the street. It's a little reindeer

I'm wearing the tiny child oh

And he's wearing a tiny little sweater that goes to his ankles like like when you cover a horse our videos should be called Simon

And Martina and go to Japan and get distracted by cute dogs my new year's resolution for 2018 is to pet more dogs

That's a pretty good one. You know what you're doing pretty good

I've been way too timid my approaching of dogs yes

2018 new year new me I'm gonna pet more dogs. [M] every dog you see [S] Not every, but I'm gonna pet more. That's it

It's our first video for the new year for 2018

We're gonna be working on some changes like our website, which hasn't been changed in like three years

Honestly, I think it was longer than that so we're gonna be moving over to Squarespace after many years of wrangling with web development

Ourselves, we've done many mistakes with web, development, over the years

Yeah

I'm looking forward to finally having something a lot
