There's so much space up in the higher place as well because this is my fridge and this is the size of the fridge area.

But today I'm going to be doing a grocery store, whole, this is inspired by charlotte.

If you guys haven't seen his, check those out just a little bit about my dietary stuff.

I am dairy free except for butter.

It's like one of those days where it's like what's going on?

Also the supermarket run was a big treats hall last time I did a big treats run was about two weeks ago.

So the treats that I got should last me about another two weeks.

But usually what I'll do is I have my big amount of treats that will last me for ages but then I will go and get like a few little bits like I'll always refresh on the vegetables and meat, tofu, fish, that kind of stuff.

Yeah I go to the supermarket eon which is a huge chain.

They also own a branch called my basket which is much smaller because I'm not in the center of Tokyo.

The shops tend to be quite a bit bigger so I do have access to like a really huge supermarket with lots of different options which is really cool and I'm very lucky.

But yeah I thought that the supermarket hall would be good for everybody to see what kind of things are available in Japan, what kind of things you get from the grocery store and also have some options if you are vegan or dairy free to see what kind of things are available to you as well.

First of all to get this out of the way, let's just acknowledge that there is a huge amount of plaque.

Um you know, Japan is not good with plastic.

I have tried doing things to avoid it.

It's very, very, very, very hard.

Everything's very individually wrapped and very nicely presented but it is a bit overkill.

Sometimes today I went to two different stores.

I went to Eon and then I also went to my local greengrocer because I want to support her and like the business.

Okay anyway, let's get started.

What should we begin with?

I'm just gonna put the frozen items away first because they're defrosting.

So let's just quickly get them done.

I got a bunch of soy ice creams and dairy free popsicles.

You kind of expect a popsicle to be dairy free but you'll be surprised.

So the soy ice cream that they sell most commonly in japan is this crazy soy vanilla and sometimes you'll find other flavors but mostly they'll just have vanilla.

Sometimes you can find chocolate and strawberry.

But yeah, this is the most common one.

This is the biggest size you can get there are other soy ice creams available and dairy free ice cream available.

But you have to go to like a savage and go to the food store there.

But this is like the general soy most common one.

So yeah, each one of these is 128 yen each.

So I got two free popsicles.

The first one is a pineapple one.

They just have juice and sugar and stuff.

And I also got a mango bar.

So the mango bar was 78 yen and the pineapple was 98 yen.

And the last frozen item are these green peas.

I don't know.

I find green peas just so easy to use and add to like stir fries.

If I'm bored and eating noodles, I'll add some green peas.

You know, they're just very easy to work with.

Hi, sorry, just cutting in here.

I totally forgot to mention about the dry ice machine.

So if you ask for dry ice they give you a little token and then they'll give you a bag, you put the bag over the top and put the token and close the door and press the button and it just shoots out dry ice like crazy into the, into the bag.

I don't know, it's just such a fun experience.

I really love it.

Okay, so now that that's the frozen stuff out of the way.

Now we can just take our time with the rest.

So in the eon supermarket that I go to, there is a huge international food section which is just such a blessing.

There's huge italian sections.

Mexican food korean food, chinese food sauces, desserts, chocolates, candy, like drinks, there's heaps of drinks from other countries.

There's just so many things to choose from now.

But the only thing is that it gets quite expensive.

The only thing I got from there is falafel mix.

I understand that falafel is apparently quite easy to make by itself, but I'm lazy so I just use this.

So this is quite expensive.

This was 429 yen.

Next day I look at is like some spices and stuff.

So I got a green curry paste.

A lot of the green curry paste here are very, very, very hot and I can't deal with it.

But there's some that I can deal with this one I can if I use half of it.

I'm okay in the spice level but some of them are like legitimately painful to eat and I can't take it.

I'm a spice baby.

But this one I found to be pretty good.

And then I also got some more coconut milk.

The green curry was 250 yen and the coconut milk was 238 yen.

So I found a soup that I wanted to try as goma, tone you so sesame and soy milk and that was 198 yen.

Then I got my spice mix for taco.

I don't know, I just used this occasionally eat, you're on tofu or on meat and have like a burrito or something.

But yeah, it's just easy and simple and it tastes really good.

So I like it.

That was 188 yen.

Next I got some tortillas.

Usually, tortillas can actually be pretty expensive in japan at most places.

You can find the el paso ones, you can get 10 big ones, but you have to pay like 700 yen, which is really, it's, It's a big commitment but these ones are much cheaper and you get five smaller ones and so I find that a lot more manageable as a person living by myself and so pack of five is 200 yen.

Okay, now I'm going to move on to the dairy replacement luxury items because they're the things I'm most excited about.

I will list my cheeses.

I got two bags of soy milk and coconut oil shredded cheese.

This is a new ish one that came out.

Yeah, it's coconut oil, soy milk based shredded cheese, it melts, it's not like the best, but it still tastes good.

So I got two bags of that because sometimes they just like to have a little bit of a Sprinkle on stuff, Those were 298 yen each.

And then to shake it up, I got another type of cheese.

Oh wow, she livin that luxury life.

This is beyond tofu, Miracle protein and it tastes really good by itself.

They used to sell blocks of it and I used to love it.

But they just changed to selling it in this plastic hell it's not fully necessary for me to get this, but it just tastes nice and I just like to snack on it sometimes, but it's still expensive but is nice.

So that tiny bit of tofu cheese was 278 yen.

Also speaking of tofu, if you come to japan, tofu section is amazing.

They had tofu noodles now and lots of different kinds of, you know, they've got all the different kinds of tofu.

But now yeah, they've got the noodles and different soups with tofu in them.

So there's lots of different options there if you want.

Tofu based dishes and also tofu is very cheap here because it's such a widely used thing, you can get a pack of tofu for under dollar 70 cents even.

I don't know, there's really good prices.

So if you want to save money or you just don't want to get some meat, then there's really good tofu selection.

Next thing I got is just some soy yogurt yogurt.

Why did I use the t so daisy?

That's good yogurt at the yogurt made with soybeans.

All of the large soy yogurts here are made with no sweetness.

So they're just plain.

So if you like sweet yogurt, they also sell some fruit sauces there.

I have like a mango one, but I like using this one in particular because it's cheap and it tastes good by itself and I use it for like curries or put it in savory dishes or I can add all the sweetness and have it as a dessert kind of thing as well.

So that soy yogurt was 248 yen.

More exciting things.

We got some poutine pudding.

So these are a new thing that came out kind of recently.

So it is plant based from plants, puddings or flans or creme caramels, whatever you call them.

So they're made with soy milk and almond paste and they're pretty great.

I'm a little obsessed.

They're very wonderful.

You can get them in a big pack, yes, I bought two sets or you can get them in a little pack.

So the big pudding cost me 118 yen.

A set of three smaller puddings cost 178 yen.

What's that?

More desserts you say?

Oh, I can't stop.

We have chocolate.

So this is a chocolate that I recently found at eon and it's in this section which is specifically for allergy stuff.

So there's a lot of things, you know like pasta made from rice flour rather than wheat for people with allergies.

They've got sauces and curries and everything.

This line of products specifically don't use the seven allergy.

The food's.

So eggs, milk, wheat, nuts, buckwheat prawn and crab.

But yeah, I use this for cooking if I bake anything.

So these were 100 and 98 yen each.

This one I'm probably gonna have really soon.

It is a pudding flavored soy milk.

This leads me to talking about milks.

So lately Japan has been bringing in oat milk finally, so there's oat milks available at EON and some my baskets and some other places as well.

And there's also almond milk.

Almond milk has been available for a while and there's more varieties now, but you know, Japan is the king of soy milks, there are so many different kinds of soy milk, it's really cheap and there's more flavored soy milk than there is flavored regular milk.

But yeah, putting my favorite flavor at the moment, the soy milk was 75 yen.

Okay, next thing I got for the dairy free treats is soy whip.

I don't actually know what I'm going to use this for yet, but I just like having it around because sometimes I'm like, man, I wish I had a little bit of whipped cream too, Judge this or make a thing.

So the cream was 198 yen.

Then we have a special little dessert, a cake.

What?

Yes, Eon now has little cakes, you can get a strawberry shortcake or you can get this new one which is a match to mom brand, which is a chestnut cream on a little cake.

But yeah, these are the same as The allergy thing.

So no milk, eggs, wheat prawn crab buckwheat or nuts.

So this, this tiny cake was 238 yen, which is why I don't get them very often, but they are kind of good.

So the next thing I'm going to talk about is meat and fish.

So the first thing I got was some salmon.

I got two slices of Slamon Sulaiman, yeah, two slices of salmon.

It's 3 60 I'll usually just fry it in some olive oil and have it with potatoes and greens or something.

So japanese meet the most expensive one is definitely beef and now they do imports.

So they have imports from Usa Tasmania, um different areas of Australia and those ones that imported beef is cheaper, but the japanese beef is just still very, very, very expensive.

It's kind of like a special occasion thing unless you're like super wealthy.

So looking today I saw lamb, lamb is pretty rare to find, but they had some today, so, but again, very, very expensive.

And then the cheaper ones are always pork and chicken.

Actually, I got some pork today.

So I got a north soup that is pretty, pretty expensive.

483 yen.

That's Not the best price.

But I'm like, it's a little worse for you.

It'll be fun.

OK, now I'm gonna move on to the stuff that I got from my local greengrocer.

Another beautiful treat.

Look at these straw dogs, it's so beautiful, smell amazing.
