    One thing I noticed about between American cooking videos and korean/japanese cooking videos is that Americans talk a lot before and in between making the foods where the others just start making the food immediately. I'm not complaining I just think its funny 😄 😆

  • @Musicalpa

    Thank you so much for your review of the lunch boxes, but even more for the recipes. Two months ago, for a variety of reasons, I went from being a carnivore to being vegan with an emphasis toward raw vegan. That's said, I needed to learn a lot more recipes that are specific to the vegan diet. Being a handyman is my specialty, however food creativity isn't one of my specialties and I lack and experience of making meals, however, in watching your simple recipes I'm quite excited to try them out.
    Thank you for expanding your video into not being just a lunch box review but also a lunch making review, lol. I appreciate it.

      The grainy in mustard is about consistency. It doesn’t contain grains. Although, check your labels for sneaky stuff.

    I recently bought this bento box, everything it’s advertised to be is true EXCEPT for the fact that it’s hard to open the white lids... like my thumb is red from trying to forcefully open it. In the video the white lids are already slightly opened when she opens them.... (and yes I know how to open it by lifting the silicone thing).

  • @pattyatrumdycreations134
    @pattyatrumdycreations134 5 років тому +8

    These are all great ideas. But you know what? All those ingredients are expensive. Eating healthy includes a lot of expensive foods. I didn't realize how expensive until I was forced to be on a very strict budget. I always wondered why some people who were poor were over weight. In my ignorance I thought they just didn't make good choices. Now i understand why they (I) would choose a $2 bag of moderately healthy snack to a $5 bag of avocados. Not only for price but for waste when you are unable to get to a store for fresh things more frequently.

    • @kassie5779
      @kassie5779 5 років тому +4

      To be fair, most people don't need 4-5+ types of fruits and veggies per week. Meat doesn't have to be grass fed, carbs can be rice instead of quinoa, etc. Anything that is a step closer to being healthy is progress.

    One day I just couldn't even talk ..I was completely empty. These days I try to do lots of self care and recognise when I need to stop! I am a big believer in a slow calm simple lifestyle. Things are alot better now. But it us a constant shift of balance.
    So, thinking of you and sending love. X
