I watched this channel and i saw how clean and respectful these girls are, and how they help their parents with cooking and such.

Haha, I think I'll try some advance question answering: 1. I totally lied, every Japanese meal doesn't have rice. It's a bit of a joke in our family. Mummy panics if there's not rice in the rice cooker. We don't eat rice at every meal, but it's pretty rare that someone in our family doesn't eat rice at least once a day. 2. Aiko was sick that day (as seen at the end of the video), so we didn't do much talking while filming that day. I normally wouldn't have filmed (we only film if the kids want to), but her great Uncle and Aunt had put together the meal for us just so we could film it, so we didn't want to waste the opportunity. 3. I did the subtitles in English, but left out a few spots where I didn't quite know how to translate correctly. I'll try to get it sorted when mummy comes home tonight. If you want to sub in other languages, please be my guest :-) 4. Oops, forgot this one! Yes, mummy doesn't like to show her face. That's just how she is. Nothing more than that :-)
+Life Where I'm From Lmao it's the same thing with us Lao people. We joke around saying we eat rice at every meal but in reality we don't. I freak out when there's no rice in the rice cooker so i make it. I feel it 100.
+Life Where I'm From Please remind MrsMom she must leave video memories of her existance for all future generations.... even the smallest fish in a pond must leave a ripple...old eastern saying from the west ??
+Life Where I'm From - My wife is the same way. In our family, it might not be in every meal, but it is definitely in at least one (usually two) of the three meals that we have in a day.
Here in the Philippines, we literally couldn't eat without rice. Breakfast, lunch and dinner..sometimes, we also eat rice with our snacks. Yes, we eat everything with rice 😂
I'm half Korean and growing up we had rice with almost every meal. My mother would be ashamed of me now for buying my rice from the Dollar Tree instead of the Asian market! 😂
English isn't that hard to write, but is hard to pronunce. If you're a foreigner the accent is still here, most of the time. For example Italian is way easier, foreign accent is way less common.
@@alicesacco9329 For children, their little brains are like sponges that soak up language and learn it almost without trying. Adults have an incredibly more difficult time. I think its awesome that the the children are learning two (very differently structured) languages when they have the chance for it to come more naturally.
@@arthrodea I wasn't talking about that. And anyway isn't always true. As child, I took 3 years to learn/understand my mother language, and as adult I took equally three years to learn/understand English.
+Omar Khalil Do you know whether it is true or not, that depending on how fancy and nice your bento box is the more your mum loves you?? I heard this before, but I wanna know if thats true!!
Hello from Tennessee! Thank you for showing us all the yummy food. I like when Miss Aiko shows us how to say the names of all the food. Thank you all very much.
Just found your channel today and I fell in love! I'm currently sick, and I watched so many of your videos. They're all so adorable and so informative. I love learning new stuff, and having such a cutie doing the videos makes them so much more enjoyable :)
Yes this is a really good idea. The children could knock that hot pot cooking on them. And that gas stove would star a nice fire. People use your common sense if you have any!!!
I know this is an older video, but in Mexico we always have beans and orange rice as side dishes for basically every meal. If not both, then at least one of the dishes. For example, this morning I had eggs, beans, salsa, and tortillas. For lunch, I had orange rice, beans, nopales (cactus), salsa and tortillas. For dinner, I had orange rice, beans, salsa, steak and tortillas. Tortillas are like our edible utensils :)
+Alnoori-9 Q8 lol that's why I said my family does. I'm not trying to generalize other Mexicans. We all have our dislikes. I guess it depends on the salsa, some I love and others I don't like. Depends on how it's made and the types of peppers/chillis that are used
I eat a whole bowl of tears cuz people make fun of me whenever i go. I wanna make them to wish for heaven for what i will do to them. But i dont want to be jail thats why im crying
Our Dinner consisted of homemade Bagels with Tuna mayonnaise and tomato salad today. We mostly eat bread for dinner here in germany but I usually get really tired of it since it's boring and just nothing special anymore, so we often just cook something in the evening or spice it up with salads. I loved to watch your familiy having dinner. It looked so cozy, lovely and extremely tasty! Your channel is great and I love japanese food and culture! Xx
Hi, I'm from India and I think you are doing a great job! All the videos possess this humane quality to it ; besides from being instructive about the Japanese culture. Love that it has a specific focus on Aikko's experience as a Japanese-Canadian in Japan and just adore the spontaneity of the children. My absolute favourite is the athletic park one for some reason. I saw all the videos within the span of an hour. You two must be real great parents for your children seem cheerful, interactive, uninhibited and curious at all times. Thanks for not scolding them all the time like my oh so strict parents did! Let it be a lesson to all the parents. Give a big hug to Aikko and Shin from my side. :) I would love to see them take a calligraphy lesson or visit some cool- weird restaurants in Japan or scrap all that and make a video of activities they love to do watching that will be fun!
My favorite dinner would probably be grilled salmon with rosemary and lemon, with sweet potato and a side of salad with arugula, spinach and a vinaigrette. :D I still wish there were more Japanese restaurants where I live; I frequently crave Japanese food, lol.
Dux preach. I know a Japanese Steak House named Koto's. They have some of the best food in town! I went there tonight and it was PACKED. Usually the Cheddar's near by gets most of the people. Of course that place is always full but Koto's takes the mochi!
The best part about this dinner serving apart the healthy ingredients is how everyone is involved in the whole process ,such a beautiful way to bring the entire family together at the end of the day and prepare and share a meal ♥️Nope,No time for them smartphones when you have a hotpot to keep you busy!
In India 200 M citizens have to struggle even for one time food due to heavy poverty and very low wages... Oh lord Atleast you are getting two time food ,so be Thank ful that you are very lucky than those underprivileged
Asian people usually have more than 2 kind of dishes plus rice in every meal. So we share the meat, the veggies, the soup, the tofu / dumpling/fried thing.
Great vid of a Japanese home cooked meal, smart kids too it looks like they at least tried everything offered to them. Hopefully someday I'll get to be in Japan & be able to try such food. Thanks so much for sharing!
@@moinakbhattacharya878 I think it's part of the culture. They are growing up there and eat this so often, that it's just normal and yummy. In a family where they only fast food or no veggies, the kids maybe wont like it, because they never tastet some.
It has to be a bit bland, but then again, the broth had kelp in it and the flavors from veggies, mushrooms and fish must have added something to the overall flavor. They also had that sauce in their bowls. The Japanese don't seem to use spices that much.
that's why they have condiments and sauce also the broth is simmering with konbu it's not really bland but once the all flavors are packed in the broth the broth will be delicious. also the fish was not frozen so it still has all the flavors intact
Not Japanese, but Chinese and we have something very similar. The soup is actually rather flavourful from all the vegetables, mushrooms, and meat. We just add sauces for extra flavour but it won't be too bland on its own.
No, that is just how kids in my town grew up. We respected our elders, and learned to take care of ourselves. The media chooses to show the bad side of American youth because the story is more interesting. It is as simple as that. Don't get me wrong I know some kids that grew up as spoiled little brats and most of them are hooked on drugs or alcohol right now, but the majority of the kids I knew grew up the same way I did.
@@gentlemortal It kind of depends on how old you are and what ethnicity is predominant in your area. Sure, there are respectful people, but the current generation is pretty toxic. This is spoken from experience, I'm not a sour adult.
in Saudi Arabia we have some meat any kind of meat like fish, lamb, chicken or beef one of these meats and with rice ....... but I'm vegetarian so I just eat rice whenever my family cooks some dinner
***** I've heard it's a thing, practiced in rural communities, but I haven't known someone who does it... I've also heard it has caused a HUGE spike in the spreading of the MERS virus here in Saudi.. I could only imagine the diseases it would spread and harms it causes, not to mention it's disgusting :( apparently there are people who claim the prophet did it. I doubt that he did and even if it was true I wouldn't do it just because he wasn't an angel on earth (being human) so I disagree with idolising him and mimicking his every action and attribute. Anyways, sorry if I babbled too much this is just what I think of it.
japan isnt as high tech as most might think, sure theres alot of innovations and but much of everyday life is almost the same as it was back it the late 90s early 2000s
Me and my gramma make this all the time but we use a strainer in the soup so we can cook what we want. I usually put salmon, mushrooms, different cabbage, bok choy, chicken, tofu, shrimp, and crab 😂😂😂
This was super clear video thanks for the video. Many people don't know how to make a good quality video about what they eat. Thank you for making my day!
I'm Mexican and I absolutely love Japanese culture especially their food, so when I'll become a mom I want to introduce my future kids to Japanese food and raised them with some of their beliefs alongside my belief from my culture.
It's actually not a roaster. It's a broiler... Also, what kind of technology is that when they have to use a camping stove. They don't even have a regular stove or oven. And that kitchen was a damn mess, handling equipment after touching raw fish without washing hands... What a mess. Ick
Ira Thapa first I'm in tittle of my opinion.. you going to report my comment cause you don't agree with what I said.. trust me buddy they not going to do nothing.. cause my comment is not offensive.. I could report yours but I'm not going to do it.. I'm not a little girl like you
so basically, those are call hot pot where there's a bowl of water and u can put slice of raw beef into and cooked it and dip it with soy sauce u can also add vegetable and raw fish
A Bullock We ate chicken adobo alot growing up too. My mom would cook it often (she's black). I think she fell in love with chicken adobo while in the Marine Corps ---stationed in the Philippines.
They need to teach Americans this because everything is healthy I need a Japanese chef I could eat this all day,maybe not tofu but god it looks Delicious!
Yeah like it’s actually their fault. People blame the individual for a widespread crisis when its mostly larger and more sinister entities that are responsible. The food industry went on an anti fat campaign, demonizing fat and creating fat free products.this made health in the us worse as fat was substituted for extra sugar and carbs to compensate for changes in taste. Then the us govt tells ppl to eat lots of carbs and fat free products. Who decided upon the food pyramid? Who told us to take a certain amount of vitamins a day? Items banned in Europe and Canada are widespread in the us. Gone are the days of when the 3 branches of the US government were the executive,legislative and the judicial branches as these roles were taken by the lobbyists representing the legislative branch, MSM representing the judicial branch and the executive branch scribbling papers all day to make stuff look legit.
Japanese cuisine is tasty, healthy and remarkable. Notice how ingredients are cut and prepared so delicately--and there is balance of rice, vegetables, proteins. Just Delightful. 👪💓💓
I am absolutely in love with Japanese culture.
Honestly I need to live there when I grow up. It seems better to me then living in the us tbh imo
@@fruit4evr well, you also have to consider japan's highly pressured society. It's not all healthy food and good manners. That culture also has a "downside".

@Hinata hyuga interesting, so all Asians like Pakistan, india, Afghanistan, Arabs, Iran eat boiled foods often?
What I notice is that the food is Soooo healthy. Love it
This is the definition of fresh,super light as well.
bruh, we be eating pizza
Typical Americans lol
Lmao tru
+PO TO yer profile pic makes it 10 times funnier XD
At every meal basically. I'm Canadian btw, and I have that so frequently it's not even funny, lol
Kevin Lin we be eating mcdonald's and shiz
This is like a hot pot that I have in China, full of good food and the stock left at the end is so full of flavor....
Hi 👋🏻
LOVE little Shin dancing around the living room. ADORABLE!!!!!
Toaster ovens built into the counter is choice.
You inspire me to eat Japanese food.
Watching this in 2019 these cute kids grew up so fast
How adorable! What a beautiful family. Enjoy your dinner 😋
Weirdly seeing them have a fresh meal everyday is satisfying. Wish we had time to do this 😂
omg...I wonder how the taste is like without any spices...
I've noticed that also
It has to be a bit bland, but then again, the broth had kelp in it and the flavors from veggies, mushrooms and fish must have added something to the overall flavor. They also had that sauce in their bowls. The Japanese don't seem to use spices that much.
that's why they have condiments and sauce also the broth is simmering with konbu it's not really bland but once the all flavors are packed in the broth the broth will be delicious. also the fish was not frozen so it still has all the flavors intact
I believe the flavor for their meal was savory. Not too salty just right. Makes me feel disgusted with myself for wanting a taco right now lol
Not Japanese, but Chinese and we have something very similar. The soup is actually rather flavourful from all the vegetables, mushrooms, and meat. We just add sauces for extra flavour but it won't be too bland on its own.
Did i hear Bombay gas stove ?
Bombay is a big city in India
Bombay is a vegie in Indonesia, used for flavor. Off topic? Yep. ( I'm off topic, not the main comment )
the way she talks is so explanatory
It looks wonderful. Makes me feel sad eating the trash I cook.
Can someone tell me why I m addicted to watching these ppl?.... I can’t stop...
Japanese Kids :
• makes there own food.
•Does dishes
•Cleans after there done.
American Kids:
•Buys Fast food
•Throws trash on ground when finished.
? I am american and I have been cooking and cleaning up after myself since I was 6. Your argument is invalid.
@@gentlemortal I mean, you are kind of part of the minority
No, that is just how kids in my town grew up. We respected our elders, and learned to take care of ourselves. The media chooses to show the bad side of American youth because the story is more interesting. It is as simple as that. Don't get me wrong I know some kids that grew up as spoiled little brats and most of them are hooked on drugs or alcohol right now, but the majority of the kids I knew grew up the same way I did.
@@gentlemortal It kind of depends on how old you are and what ethnicity is predominant in your area. Sure, there are respectful people, but the current generation is pretty toxic. This is spoken from experience, I'm not a sour adult.
gentlemortal Liar. For one, drugs and alcohol aren't related to being a "spoiled little brat"
I have translated the video into swedish, I would be grateful if someone could review it so that it can be put into the video.
+Cornelia Karlsson Oh thanks!
+Life Where I'm From No problem!
+Cornelia Karlsson Svärje \o/
Svärje? I thought it was spelled "Sverige". Åh herregud,no wonder I failed my swedish class in highschool.Hahaha!!😂😂😂
+Yukari カレーうどん森川 Ja jag vet.Jag skojade bara. 😁
I can't get enough of these videos.
in Saudi Arabia we have some meat any kind of meat like fish, lamb, chicken or beef one of these meats and with rice
....... but I'm vegetarian so I just eat rice whenever my family cooks some dinner
Hahah, I'm Saudi too and also Vegan :D *Fist bump*
+Sara ⓥ :3 :D *fist bump*
+Chase Wong WHAT THAT'S A THING
HELL NO I've been born and raised in Saudi Arabia and I have never heard of that
***** I've heard it's a thing, practiced in rural communities, but I haven't known someone who does it... I've also heard it has caused a HUGE spike in the spreading of the MERS virus here in Saudi.. I could only imagine the diseases it would spread and harms it causes, not to mention it's disgusting :( apparently there are people who claim the prophet did it. I doubt that he did and even if it was true I wouldn't do it just because he wasn't an angel on earth (being human) so I disagree with idolising him and mimicking his every action and attribute. Anyways, sorry if I babbled too much this is just what I think of it.
faguette There are many other ways to get protein other than meat.
Wow Japanese kitchens are pretty high tech
It's Japan -.-
japan isnt as high tech as most might think, sure theres alot of innovations and but much of everyday life is almost the same as it was back it the late 90s early 2000s
GummyBearRecords its japan...japan...duh...
Looks very yummy! I love the family atmosphere. Friendly and caring.
Looks so delicious and healthy!
Me and my gramma make this all the time but we use a strainer in the soup so we can cook what we want. I usually put salmon, mushrooms, different cabbage, bok choy, chicken, tofu, shrimp, and crab 😂😂😂
I love this family so much 🥺
I'm from Puerto Rico and in my house we eat rice almost every single day too xD
+Maria_Desiree Rice is Life! Life is Rice!
+Maria_Desiree are you good in math now?
Yes but don't know how it relates to rice? xD
you should do a video on how to eat with chopsticks
Smita T there's tooooons of videos out there about this already if you're wanting to learn 😉
What if i want to learn from aiko ?? Haha i know there would be tons of videos.. it was a spur of the moment comment.
Smita T that so easy
This was super clear video thanks for the video. Many people don't know how to make a good quality video about what they eat. Thank you for making my day!
In Philippines every meal have rice.. And if its cold my family usually cooked noodles or just anything with soup! Btw nice video! 👍😋
thats what i hate sometimes :P
im half filipina :P
lmao same tho I just ate da meal 😂
In our family if we dont eat rice that means that our stomach isnt full in any food that we are gonna eat.
in indonesia too, we eat rice everyday😁
I'm Filipino and we already eat rice and tinola or kalabasa I think that's how you spell it
I'm Mexican and I absolutely love Japanese culture especially their food, so when I'll become a mom I want to introduce my future kids to Japanese food and raised them with some of their beliefs alongside my belief from my culture.
It looks so light and healthy and wonderful!!
JAPANESE TECHNOLOGY OH MY GOSH THAT ROASTER
agreed!! I found that super cool as well :)
I was just drooling over that pretty appliance.
hahaha cool roaster
It's actually not a roaster. It's a broiler...
Also, what kind of technology is that when they have to use a camping stove. They don't even have a regular stove or oven. And that kitchen was a damn mess, handling equipment after touching raw fish without washing hands... What a mess. Ick
Last night the dinner where I'm from (Texas) was fried chicken, bacon fried cabbage, new potatoes with butter and garlic, and yeast rolls. 🍗🍗🍗
Ray price Why are trolls even on videos about children? Take your nonsense to political videos and leave the kids alone.
Galaxy Rhen why are you so upset?. is true Texas is full of Mexicans.. and nobody care about Texas..
Sounds good >.
I reported that dimwit's comment. Seriously people have to ruin everything these days.
Ira Thapa first I'm in tittle of my opinion.. you going to report my comment cause you don't agree with what I said.. trust me buddy they not going to do nothing.. cause my comment is not offensive.. I could report yours but I'm not going to do it.. I'm not a little girl like you
Aiko has carried this video too very well. I hope not too late to compliment and thank you for sharing this video. All the food looked so healthy 🙂😃
OMG they eat too little！i can finish the entire pot by myself
CrunchyB You must be fat then
Jaymie Nguyen ok that was mean :/
Ayano Aishi AHAHAHA
I know right! Thats why they all seem so skinny!
Americans tend to eat really big portions. Super size culture I like to call it.
*It looks nd feels like Shinchans family* ...just Himawari is older than Shin!!!😁😘❤💕
😊😊😊😊
Yes and the heater under the table same as shinchan.
Haha same felt here
Japan is not only about shin chan
@@nobita-kungaming356 ik but there wasn't a bit of ignorance in my statements. So let's all not get too much hyped up about such stuffs!!
If this is what my dinner looked like I would always look forward to it
whoa everything looks so healthy and good. yum!
Westerners should take their cue from this healthy eating.
I'm Indian and I love Japanese culture

Lovely and heart-warming video. What lovely and polite kids. Makes a change. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
I am half filipino, so my family often eats Chicken Adobo.
A Bullock We ate chicken adobo alot growing up too. My mom would cook it often (she's black). I think she fell in love with chicken adobo while in the Marine Corps ---stationed in the Philippines.
I accually like japanese lifestyle
Yomeli Guerrero *actually
same here
It’s so simple I love it
@@haisesasaki8907 you dont know anything about japan if you think its simple
That dinner looks absolutely delicious!
I love this channel
Oji-Chan is so cute when he eats. :3
It's so amazing that kids are helping elder and cooking and arranging their dinnigs... wao... so nice culture
They need to teach Americans this because everything is healthy I need a Japanese chef I could eat this all day,maybe not tofu but god it looks Delicious!
Yeah like it’s actually their fault. People blame the individual for a widespread crisis when its mostly larger and more sinister entities that are responsible. The food industry went on an anti fat campaign, demonizing fat and creating fat free products.this made health in the us worse as fat was substituted for extra sugar and carbs to compensate for changes in taste. Then the us govt tells ppl to eat lots of carbs and fat free products. Who decided upon the food pyramid? Who told us to take a certain amount of vitamins a day? Items banned in Europe and Canada are widespread in the us. Gone are the days of when the 3 branches of the US government were the executive,legislative and the judicial branches as these roles were taken by the lobbyists representing the legislative branch, MSM representing the judicial branch and the executive branch scribbling papers all day to make stuff look legit.
Nothing wrong with tofu. We've been eating it for generations and we're fine.
Who are the 15 soulless people who gave this thumbs down?
+haru yasumi the same people who complain about the lighting
+haru yasumi american ???
haru yasumi unhealthy lazy Americans, that’s who.
Japanese cuisine is tasty, healthy and remarkable. Notice how ingredients are cut and prepared so delicately--and there is balance of rice, vegetables, proteins. Just Delightful. 👪💓💓
Aiko English is better than mine and I'm older than her. she is so adorable and nice and smart
