Thank you for sharing this! This seems really interesting and I hope to try this subscription box soon:)
hahaha could not stop laughing when you made the fortune teller and the voice. I always use my chin when making it too! anddd let's talk about your hairrrr
Yay I am so glad you are still doing taste the world boxes! I found your UA-cam by watching your France one!
Awe the konpeito is the sugar candy the dust particles in Spirited Away ate
Seaweed is actually very good for you and tastes very good.
This is the coolest thing ever!
Animal gelatin comes from their bones. So when you eat Starbursts (or anything with that consistency) you're eating animal gelatin. Most of the time it comes from a horse's bones.
i remember those little paper thingys you were talking about. i loved those things lol
The fast forward talking during the origami. Priceless!!! Then What the Hell is sheep gelatin. Too damn funny!! You are hilarious!!!
hahaha thanks! :) & apparently sheep gelatin, or animal gelatin in general, is found in a lot of chewy candies! so gross! :(
great vid...loved the speed-origami...! Have been thinking of trying red bean paste mochi (pounded rice sweet) but so far only tried the sesame seed type - must look for some of that red bean jelly snack x
I really enjoyed watching ur videos and decided to leave a comment on this one because I live in Tokyo.
Hate to tell u this... but all the stuff that u got in the box you can find them at a 100 yen store which everything is only a dollar.
Orgami fortune tellers, when I was in elementary school a million years ago we made those and balloons all the time. :)
Seaweed is AMAZING!
yep totally remember them paper things called them fortune tellers or something LOL we put numbers on each folded area and then put a fortune or something under them!
Omg im dying for that box TAT love japanese culture and food so so much!!!!
love your hair!!!!
I remember making those things your talking about, we called them "fortune tellers". We put colors on the outside and numbers and fortunes on the inside!:)
I remember the little question (folding paper) thing. LOL Cool box, in the same as you. If it smells bad I don't eat it. Just because I can't get over the smell of whatever it is.
"Cootie Catchers" is what we called those origami things when I was in elementary school! :P I have no idea why!
the thing that you are talking about, concerning origami, is a fortune teller. I remember those. me and my friends used to do them all the time when we were little and in middle school !!
Omg you're the funniest haha
Try the seaweed it's actually addicting!
As for animal gelatin, gelatin actually comes from animal bone marrow I believe. means gummy candies and jello actually have animal parts in them, (grossss right?)
And that's the reason why I'm vegan! It's the left over after slaughter.
Gelatin as in gummies, jello, marshmallow etc. is made by boiling animal skin, tendons, ligaments, and bones with water. So this is just saying that specific gelatin was made with sheep. The majority of gelatin in the US is made from cattle bone.
Think about that next time you're making smores! Ugh!
Sorry to keep commenting but I'm doing it as I watch.
ALLLLLLLL gelatin that in marshmallows are from pigs bones. Unless it specifically says "Vegetable" gelatin it has anime bones in it. same with many gummies, jello, etc.
when you were eating the caramels and said its good it didn't look like you liked it haha!
but that jelly thing sounds weird but looks pretty good!
Seaweed snacks are so good!
I can't get over the scent :( does it taste like how it smells? does that even make sense? haha
Lmao! No, at least not for me. It kinda taste like a chip? But like a thin chip. aha. It's good, try it! :D
you should try the nail polish by China glaze in he shade "flip flop fantasy". I have it, and love it for a spring/summer color!
"I've never had anything like this before" So you've never had jello...
Lol animal gelatine I believe comes from animal bones. Thanks for the detailed review, I like to see the kind of stuff people get before I commit to a subscription box. :) xxx
I like that color shirt where is it from?? If u just got it if not nvm lol
You look really nice with long hair. Great review.
What's animal gelatin? its that stuff in your grape jelly and jello that makes them gelatinous
konpeito's are amazing
Hey Vanessa, I used to be a world traveler in my early 20's and if you want to learn how to use chopsticks you can wrap a rubber band around the end for more control. I think that is the way they teach their kids when they are younger or tourists who want to learn how to use them.. I hope you try them!! I would love this box but it is a bit expensive. I am on the fence. cheri :)
oohh nice tip... thanks! yeah it IS pricey. but I think it's worth it because they are products that you can't get like say, at the mall or something... you know?
VAD IS RAD Yeah.. I went to the site and looked at the other boxes.. I may join in a month or two. I have 5 other boxes that I get and will probably cancel 2 of them.. of course Birchbox I will keep because of the points system. Its a good deal when you buy something with them and have a coupon code.. I love Ipsy.. I may cancel Glossybox and the Beauty Bar box. I am getting too many.. lol I did get one month of the underwear box through your link but didn't care for it because the ones I got were cheap and 2 of them were lace.. Love your videos Vanessa!! You always keep it real!! cheri :)
I want to try some seaweed snacks.
awesome
Aren't they called Codie cacher 😃there so cool
always pretty
You're funny ! Subscribing !
thank you for retweeting my tweet the other day about my friends daughter missing. shes still missing but anything helps!
I can't use chopsticks either lol
I love chopstick and I use more chopsticks then a fork myself since I am half Japanese.
animal gelitan is cow or horse hooves ground up it is in jello oreos and gummy bears. I am vegetarian so I don't eat gelitan
Fortune Teller...Lol
I want to surcribe to that box
you are to funny 😂😂😂😂😂😂
An origami chatterbox? :)
i don't know the official name but i call them "coodie catchers"
I took Japanese for 4 years but could never stomach the food haha I can't even with sushi! worst student ever lol
lol your so funny.
btw ur word u where looking for was fortune tellers
The "letters" are called kanji.
Mukhliisah more appropriately kana since they use a combination of hiragana, katakana, and chinese characters called kanji.
I tried those seaweed sheets type things Wasabi "flavored" omfggggg THE worst thing I've EVER put in my mouth.
U look sooo much like ashley Tisdale
Not being mean but why pay so much money for this subscription box if your not even gonna try the some of the snacks?! Like seaweed is actually really good and it does not smell like the sea...😑
+Nicole Chen well everyone has their own tastes, and she would try some of the snacks if it seems appealing to her. This particularly company has a different country every two months so maybe from the beginning she wasnt a fan of sea food. but tbh seaweed does smell like the sea XD to me at least ive had it only once and i didnt really like it even though i was hoping to!!
Use the chopsticks in your hair xx
The Seaweed is the only thing that looks good
The prices on these boxes are ridiculous and wayyyy over priced
This is not worth 40 dollars.
+1frickinxanimal ya one is the usual price of two and towo for every month not every two months!!!
youre a little rude... i dont know i get that vibe that you dont really respect their culture because you dont want to understand it ..
+Koneko Chan
I don't get that vibe? She says nothing disrespectful about Japanese culture. She acknowledges that it's interesting and unique. The only 'negative' things she says are about the provided foods that aren't to her tastes. Which I don't believe is disrespectful at all.
she wasn't rude nor disrespectful in her video. People like you are judgemental, you look for offense everywhere, and you think all people should be just like you. I don't know you but I know your type. So with your "wisdom" everyone should love all other cultures food and if we don't then we are rude. I can't believe you didn't call her a racist, cause that's your types MO usually. So if someone fed you a big plate of seal blubber or something you weren't familiar eating, then of course no matter what you were eating you would lick the plate and say how awesome it was. No you would not, very few of us would. But now not caring for unfamiliar foods, makes us rude disrespectful and all the other mean things people like you accuse people of. No madame, you are rude and disrespectful, and may I also add a bully.
Your extensions don't blend very well with your natural hair...just saying.
She blended it perfectly. This is coming from someone who uses hair extensions A LOT, so I know what I am talking about.
the color match is perfect. however, I am still a newbie at wearing them, so I'm still trying to get the hang of it!
I love all those treats. I live in Japan 3 years and married to a Japanese man for 31 years. Your taste changes when you try lots of different foods. Great box and review. Thanks
wow, how was it living in Japan? I would LOVE to go there!
It was beautiful and an amazing experience. Japan is live no other country. If you ever get a chance to, don't hesitate. I hope to go back this summer to visit family and friends. I miss it so much.
