When eating mochi, it's 90% of time not powder sugar, but the rice flour. Because of it the mochi doesnt stick to your fingers or whatever, that's why they put that flour on it
Not exactly fruit onigiri, but there are sticky rice and fruit desserts from Thailand that are pretty good! The one that I usually see is coconut sticky rice with mango. If you're looking for something more similar to onigiri, there a lot of sweet "onigiri" style desserts that are wrapped in bamboo/banana leaves in a lot of other Asian cultures such as Vietnam, Thailand, and China. These usually don't come with fruit but I think Thailand might have a banana one(?) not too sure on that tho
Mudan speed ran every single melon food out there. The more speed runs he finishes, the closer we can be from the teHAVE YOU CONSIDERED SPEED RUNNING EVERY SINGLE TEMPLE IN TOKYO?!
S TIER VIDEO this video was so good I'll comment everything I was interested in. 0:57 MUDAN LOOKS SO GOOD. how much does bro weigh? 🫣 3:37 bro the powered sugar is so good tho 😔 7:15 Very good explanation, even though I knew the different type of I've creams. I just thought coolish was mid 10:17 WTH THE MELAN PAN HAS STUFF IN INSIDE??? 😮
A collection of things Dreaming wouldn't like - the video. Thanks for this in-depth review of all the things you can get in the first week of august/last week of July. I wonder if you can get savoury foods that also utilize seasonal fruits like conbinis do with pastries.
I've never seen him eat any of the cup dessert things. Like the puddings/parfaits type things. Also the things that are more pastry than bread. IMO thats where the best seasonal stuff is
That Coolish one was probably extra artificial tasting because it was "melon soda float" flavored, so it's probably gonna have weirdness to make it more "melon soda" ish
The one that is "just melon, in English..." was a "crown melon pancake" so I assume it's kinda like a dorayaki with melon and cream instead of the usual.
Mudan, if you're actually into Japanese sweets, why not visit Tsuruya Yoshinobu Tokyo Store at Ginza area? They have sitting area to eat their in store prepared wagashi, even a counter seat that you can view them preparing it and serve to you direct. Edit : Bonus content, Bank of Japan has a museum on the opposite street.
Hey Mudan just a fun fact about banana flavor. The banana flavor you called most artificial out there is actually the original taste of bananas. But due to the large amount of cultivation the bananas grew resistant to the pesticide or something used against the funghi that grew on them, and they went extinct. So the reason bananas taste different to it's flavoring is because todays bananas taste different to old bananas and the flavouring is based on the old ones.
Cool video! I was wondering if the map of Japan on the whiteboard is hand drawn? And if so, by whom. Very nice map! Is the map to keep track of all the places that you have already visited? Thanks
Ohhhhhh, I dunno if you're allowed to take points off because of a 'mess factor'. It's all about the taste, after all. Thanks, fella~! What sorts of wacky things will Mudan get up to tomorrow?
Mudan, here in the USA a lot of South East Asian restaurants (Thai/Viet/Lao places) will do sticky rice with mango and coconut cream as a dessert. Maybe there's a place in Tokyo that serves onigiri in the spirit of this dish??
Sweet onigiri could work if you sweeten the rice, I think. Rather than rice wine/vinegar, something only lightly sweet but not overpowering or sickly sweet. Idk what tho
Rice with fruit? There are mochi variations with fruit slices inside, but I believe you'd mostly find them in a specialty shop. On that note, if you haven't yet, try going to an onigiri store somewhere for more options!
When I think of onigiri I think of rice and seaweed, and seaweed would be terrible matched with fruit. You could make a fruit rice ball on your own though to see if it would be good, would give a day's worth of content.
Sembikiya Fruit Parlor, fancy fruit place in Kanda (south of akihabara). They also have a store for just fancy premium fruit. And go to a lawson's and look for MOW ice cream.
Hmmm I wonder what season it'll be when I go over end of Sept beginning of October? 🤔 I'm the kind of gal who finds something I like then I obsess over it & never want to eat anything else, so the changing of products so frequently would be awful for me. I probably would never try anything seasonal and stick to staples to ensure I don't get frequently disappointed 😕
Silly question here, how do you isolate your voice so well outside? I don't really hear background street noise. I'm sure you can find a Japanese-style mango with sticky rice.
Fun useless fact, banana flavor isn't "the most artificial" it's just based on a flavor of banana none of us have ever tried because overfarming + other factors made it go extinct lmao so we just have no idea what the OG flavor is supposed to taste like
So it is the most artificial then, just not by choice. Because there's literally no chance of that extinct banana being in it. And with every iteration, it has gotten more artificial. As it's been decades since the banana went bye-bye, the frame of reference for banana flavored products, can only be, other banana flavored products.
@@secretasianman108 well I mean, when people say it’s super artificial it’s because it tastes “fake” because it doesn’t taste like the bananas we have around. That’s all. You’re right but also it changes based on perspective. Like blue raspberry. That’s artificial as hell. Because that straight up doesn’t exist (but god I love it)

I think I speak for all Pete Donaldsons in the chat when I say FUCK YEAH COOLISH
I had Peach Coolish my last trip and it fucking slaps so hard. I wanna try melon so bad

Chris’s podcast co-host Pete would be delighted to know you’re now team coolish.
Most spawning point of Mudan > Random parking lot in Japan.
It's not hazelnut, it's chestnut season
Edit: how tf did i get here so early it was posted 5 min. Ago
Also they are not nuts, technically they are seeds
He used a picture of chestnuts, so he's thinking of the right thing at least but using the wrong word.
I don't dislike the seasonal thing, usually I'll snack on only thing for a while and then completely forget and move on to something else
Always nice to see mudan upload
I highly suggest you visit Kanazawa (the fish market is one of the best in Japan). I love your vlogs, keep it up man! Cheers from Norway

This is becoming a food channel... keep doing what you love!
I highly recommend the chocolate Coolish that comes out in winter (after fall/chestnut season is winter/chocolate season). It's good!
S TIER VIDEO
this video was so good I'll comment everything I was interested in.
0:57 MUDAN LOOKS SO GOOD. how much does bro weigh? 🫣

10:17 WTH THE MELAN PAN HAS STUFF IN INSIDE??? 😮
Bro it's getting close to 100k!!
9:26 that’s a melon doriyaki, it’s a type of pancake with filling, usually red bean paste.
*gasps
doracake
When cycling, I always load up Coolish, let it melt, and I suck it on the go. Makes me feel like Lance Armstrong
That`s not hazelnut, it is chestnut
And they are not even nuts, they are seeds

Mudan, I was genuinely worried about you bro. Glad to see you're still alive and doing well
worried why? he posts every day, literally the last person ya need to worry about
Hey Mudan I love your videos, I was hoping you could speak more about your map of Japan and the provinces you've visited and/or plan to visit.
I've never seen him eat any of the cup dessert things. Like the puddings/parfaits type things. Also the things that are more pastry than bread. IMO thats where the best seasonal stuff is

Basically the tiers are ice cream, fruit pops and popsicles for us people. The kast being without lactose
Was that an impression of Joey "Let's get into it"? LOL
Konbini food videos are the most goated.
For a second I saw the thumbnail and thought it was durian 😂
japan? Durian? Neverrrr
@violetnhz aww man that breaks my south east asian heart 🥲😂
Genuinely thought you weren't going to upload
Loving the map of Japan in the backgorund. 😃 Is it to keep track of all the prefectures Mudan has visited so far? 🤔
Last Dec I was in Tokyo for 2 weeks. The 1st week I had that last melonpan with creme inside, the following week I couldn't find it anymore.
If you can't find fruit Onigiri, make it yourself. CONTENT

mudan: hazelnuts
the picture: chesnut LMAO
UPLOAD IS HEREEE FINALLYYYYYYY
The RUclips compression made it look like you were in front of a green screen at that section around a minute in.
Mudan, here in the USA a lot of South East Asian restaurants (Thai/Viet/Lao places) will do sticky rice with mango and coconut cream as a dessert. Maybe there's a place in Tokyo that serves onigiri in the spirit of this dish??
Mango onigiri would go so hard
as far as i know the mochi that you say has sugar on it isn't actually true. it's starch. potato specifically if i remember correctly.
@1:10 hazelnuts? Was this supposed to be chestnut?
Mudan preparing for his jujutsu kaisen debut with that fit
Sweet onigiri could work if you sweeten the rice, I think. Rather than rice wine/vinegar, something only lightly sweet but not overpowering or sickly sweet. Idk what tho
Mudan, please invest in a single plate.
1:02 What happened, why is every shot looks so crisp and colorful????
Rice with fruit? There are mochi variations with fruit slices inside, but I believe you'd mostly find them in a specialty shop. On that note, if you haven't yet, try going to an onigiri store somewhere for more options!
When I think of onigiri I think of rice and seaweed, and seaweed would be terrible matched with fruit. You could make a fruit rice ball on your own though to see if it would be good, would give a day's worth of content.
Fruit onigiri sounds like a war crime
The fear I felt when you didn't upload earlier
Sembikiya Fruit Parlor, fancy fruit place in Kanda (south of akihabara). They also have a store for just fancy premium fruit. And go to a lawson's and look for MOW ice cream.
South East Asian restaurant. They have sticky rice with something sweet; mango, durian, kaya etc
'Japan is big on Nuts, now thats going to be intense' - Mudan
What was the first item's packaging?
it's not sugar on the mochi, it's rice flour so that it doesn't stick to everything
Real Mudan Moment!!1!
latest upload yet?

The video was much later today, I was worried you were dead 😱
6:45
is ananas an english word ? i only know it as pineapple in english
Wait, wdym melon pan isn't only shaped like a melon and it is actually melon flavored too?? :O
Melonpan or even regular onigiri would be sweet to find locally in Finland :/
Silly question here, how do you isolate your voice so well outside? I don't really hear background street noise. I'm sure you can find a Japanese-style mango with sticky rice.
6:14 Ananas 💛
Japan having a hawaii season is wild...shouldn't be in season until December though.
Climate change, I guess 🤔
Why did he suck up the lemon melon like that 😂
hes alive
I beg you to do a train station review speedrun
I don't like sugar, but I sure am craving some rn
Please make Garnt introduce you to mango sticky rice 😭
Mudan alive
Can you review all the fast food franchises in Tokyo?
I'm pretty sure that's not powdered sugar. It's just flour so the mochi won't be sticky.
Could it just be a different type of melon?
Germany has sweet rice desserts with fruit
Ah mah gah
What's with the countdown?
you goin to the moon or something? 🌕
If you don't dust the outside of mochi with corn starch/sugar it will be impossible to eat because of how sticky it is. I want melon coolish so bad.
砂糖は使いません。一般的に米粉を使います。片栗粉やコーンスターチでも代用出来ます。
Hang out with Connor! Yah!
"Japan is big on nuts" was a missed opportunity.
Try bouldering, bowling and mystery box

If that is mochi then it's not sugar but flour to make it not dry out and get hard fast
一般的に米粉を使いますが、片栗粉やコーンスターチでも代用出来ます。
Seasonal sweet, huh, and I do like banana flavored stuff, but the other snacks looked better
Mmmm food!
Fruit onigiri 😐 he mustn’t be let back in the kitchen
now do the drinks
do you want sushi icecream? i mean you have no problem with onigiri flavor fruits then.
