Japanese student lucky af, My school can barely actually take the chicken nuggets out of the freezer and cook them, LIKE THEY ALWAYS PINK ON THE INSIDES OR THE FOOD AINT EVEN COOKED 😭
Oh my god, yes! That is VERY true, like legit, my school food are sometimes good but other times it’s just nah, like the sweet and sour chicken with white rice, chicken is good , kinda, and the rice just tastes nasty
Y’all get that…? We have the same 4 things on our stoobid menu, chicken patty, chicken nuggets, any kind of salad, and pizza which are all gross, like how do you mess up pizza :’|
I seriously love your content. This is a seriously cool video of yours. Thanks for being you and showing off how epic and approachable japanese cuisine can be
I remember once when I used to live in Japan, my school went on a field trip to a Japanese school. We got to learn about all their customs AND HOW DELICIOUS THE LUNCHES WERE. MMM.
Honestly I had pretty good school lunches growing up, when I was little, I got the normal chicken nuggies with small side of fries. Middle school u get burritos, cheeseburgers, salads, some gluten free options. Even breakfast, there’s cinnamon buns and chocolate muffins. High school u get a menu. This was a normal public school. They gave us popsicles on hot days and hot chocolate on cold days. It was great! Aside from the hw.
@@sejozwak we had other things on the side. But these where the main food. And my favorites. We had veggie junk and healthy drinks. It’s wasn’t all unhealthy. They had a ton of options.
I went to an elementary school in Japan. Our lunch was made and packed in a factory and delivered to my school. Everything was so tasteless. But some schools have their own giant kitchens and make fresh lunch for students.
that's really weird, my elementary school lunch in japan was always made fresh. while i couldn't eat most of it cause it had pork, the times i did eat it, they were fresh and you could taste the quality.
@@Bento_Club I personally don't lol. Not even a little. I'm not in grade school anymore, but back then, I got tired and hated school lunch so much, I stopped eating lunch when I reached 10th grade. Part of the reason was also to lose weight since I was morbidly obese, but the other part was because the lunch was so damn awful. I don't miss cardboard pizza or soggy crispitos in the slightest.
I think it’s refreshing that you cook your own meals , Japanese recipes no less .. especially if you’re single.. I LOVE cooking but I’d never be motivated to cook for myself especially in country with best cheap meals just around the corner
I FEEL SO LOVED RIGHT NOW I'VE BEEN GOING ON ABOUT HOW MUCH I LOVE HAYASHI RICE AND THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I SEE A FOREIGNER TALKING ABOUT IT IT MAKES MY HEART SO HAPPY
My school wraps rice and a bunch of toppings in an oil paper wrap and sells them for 0,34 dollars each (You can also choose to add more by paying more up to 1 dollars max). The most common toppings include Fried Noodles, Shredded Chicken cooked in chili sauce, Sauteed Spinach, Chicken Betutu, Fried Tofu, Chicken marinated and cooked in a soy sauce mixture, Tempeh, Coconut Serundeng/ Saur, Fried Peanuts, Sausage & Meatball Soup, Fried Eggs, Hard-boiled Eggs, Sauteed Shrimp, Chicken Liver, Extremely dry and super crispy Chicken Intestines, Extremely dry and weirdly puffy pig skin, extremely chewy pig fat, pig intestines sausage meat thing, These extremely crispy and tasty thing that I don't know the name of, Lawar, Lodeh Soup, Sambal Matah, Sambal Bawang and so many more that I forgot. The toppings varies from province to province but I live in bali and these are some of the common food served at school. We can also choose other stuff too, like instant noodles, instant cup noodles, spaghetti, variegated drinks with a dedicated store for it, lots of snacks, sandwich, fried macaronis doused with -diarrhea powder- extremely spicy seasonings, sempol, bakso, nuggets, so many fish balls of many different type, chocolate banana, fried banana, cupcakes, ice cream, candies, batagor, siomay, seblak, and so much more :(
I remember when they passed that “heathy school lunches” thing years ago, here in America. If they wanted to make school lunches healthier, they should’ve started doing stuff like this instead of the crap they used to replace the old school lunches with. I already was starving at home, school was were i was able to get food for lunch. And if our bus made it to school in time then we got breakfast too. Then they decided to make all school lunches “healthy”, I started going home hungry. Everything was bland, disgusting and barely even edible. It’s wasn’t just revolting, it was practically vile. Not even the lunch ladies wanted to serve it to us, but that’s all they had and they weren’t allowed to serve anything else.
You can thank Michelle Obama, Democrats, and their healthy school lunch program for that. Back when my daughter's were in school all the meals in the cafeteria were like home cooked meals made by skilled lunch ladies. Now the stuff they serve now isn't fit to serve to neither humans or animals. 😢
Unrelated to the video, I'm finally in japan trying all the little things I've been watching in your vids! Just wanted to tell you I'm enjoying it all, keep it up❤
my old public school used to give us microwaved mini pizzas that said “out of this world!” on the packaging. like it aint out of this world it’s out of my mouth 😭😭
My experience with jp school meals: bottle of milk, rice, savoury dish (fish, meat etc), side dishes (usually veg), miso soup. Sometimes you will get dishes like curry, or udon, or both (curry udon). This is kore personal experience but i still think its cool to share that the students would serve the food with one or two adults to help out. Everyone wore masks and the teachers would eat with us (i was in the lower years back then)
Idk about thinly sliced bacon but thick slices; smaller pieces of carrot potatoes and onions and a smaller pasta like those letters/stars or seed shaped ones make a great soup. Add some chicken bouillon and black pepper for flavour. Sometimes I didn’t have money for chicken so I’ve done multiple versions of this soup with whatever vegetables I had and sometimes would substitute the pasta with rice. Pro tip: wash and peel all the vegetables first and while you’re cutting everything boil the scraps for a richer flavour, highly recommend throwing a smashed clove of garlic and/or multiple spices (cayenne pepper, chili flakes, herbs if you’re into that, garlic/onion powder etc), you can throw the meat if it’s not sliced than when you’re done remove the meat, strain the stock and you’ll be done with a more flavourful soup without spending more money. Also, you can save the bones and excess fat off of your meats and freeze them for when you wanna make stock!
I taught elementary and middle school English here in northern Japan for 17 years. This short made me sentimental. And yeah, the bacon is underwhelming. But oddly the bacon ( and sometimes bland little slices of hotdogs) is delicious in soup.
For anyone who likes experimenting a bit further, try making some omurice and then pour the hayashi sauce over the egg (I personally like the Demi sauce instead of tomato since there’s already tomato/ketchup in the rice)
I was looking for this type of content, as a mom, thinking about the weekly menu is just exhausting, I don't like to repeat myself and I try to propose to my kids different things, I would love a full section of "school menu at home", of course the healthy school menu as japanese, korean and chinese menu 👌
yeah, the school lunches in the US consist of junk food, mostly frozen junk food, and burgers/pizza/bacon that's been sitting out but keeps getting microwaved for 13 hours straight.
My school lunch entrée today was mozzarella sticks and they don’t even taste like mozzarella sticks and they aren’t that warm but they gave me a stomach ache when I first had them so I never ate them again🤢 luckily I have French before lunch and we had a picnic so I didn’t eat at lunch 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
i once got a uncooked pizza at my american school but the thing is, the pizzas are delivered to the school PRECOOKED meaning that the only way it's possible for it to be raw was if it's uncooked which is physically impossible the pizza had visible signs of being cooked like black spots and other less cooked spots but it wasn't cooked
whats even funnier is that some Americans will be shocked by the fact that some schools have students prepare the lunches for everyone. Honestly should be implemented everywhere to teach everyone how to cook in such an early age.
When me and my class in American public schools found out the average French public school lunch time is an hour long with a 4 course meal, even the teacher joined in on the noise we made.
I've seen people grow those white strawberries. I think they're called white jewels? I can't remember but I've seen them. Edit: it was a video about 5 minutes long and it was pretty cool.
why can’t all schools have delicious food like this 🥲
I wish so too
Yep,I found a 2 hairs in my chicken noodle soup at school🥲
@@Slimjimzzz YOU HAVE CHICKEN NOODLE SOUP? I’ve got lumpy squash. 😢
@@mipfers ewwwwwww
@@SlimjimzzzI have burgers made out of the people who left the school early! My friends are gone forever now. They did taste pretty good though.
This honestly looks like a very delicious and balanced meal. I might want to try that
👨🏽🍳
日本では給食がとても健康になるようになっています。
@@Bento_Club id go for something lighter, but this looks great!
No it isnt.
@@dfct9494 yes it is
the white strawberries are called pineberries for those who are wondering
They look like 5 minute crafts bs strawberry hack where they were dumb enough to use real bleach
Thanks ❤
whats the difference?
@@iambrooklynnn i think they're sweeter than strawberries? idk not sure maybe making it up
@@falcarius the ones I had were all just sour an tasteless
Currently teaching at a Japanese Elementary and Junior High School, and when Hayashi rice is on the menu, it's always a win, second only to curry day!
Well done sensei
Oh yes! Curry day and second helpings if you're lucky is the best!!
I'm Japanese and I loved Hayashi rice at school lunch, too!!
Me eating my pizza that's been warmed up 2 weeks in a row: 😢😢😢
That… can’t be healthy. You’re going to get food poisoning.
That can’t be good…. 😅😅
Your gonna get sick…..
Average American lunch tho . . .
Sadly can't do anything about it . . .
As tasty as the school pizza is, sometimes you gotta change things up

Bro, my school used to order pizza for pizza day but now it’s Tony’s pizza which the only good thing is the cheese the breading is just nope
Sue them
Those nuggets are already cooked. Some meat even when cooked will retain color. Happens a lot to me with chicken and spinalis on pork ribeyes.
Having eaten Japanese school dinners when I taught there, the dinners were seriously next level. They were ALWAYS delicious! 😊 😋

As a Filipino who is living in Japan since middle school, I do love me some hayashi rice like like they weren't feeding us bread 80% of the time.
This is a REALLY interesting series! Keep up the creativity!
Love how far you content has come. Great job 🤙🏽
Compare that to American meals, we gonna think japan is heaven on earth
I lowkey kinda miss the cardboard pizza in the US 👀

@Misakiclxud no food break😢
This reminds me of my childhood school lunch in Japan. It’s way better than a five star restaurant 😢
That’s really good/balanced lunch! Well done Japan! 🇯🇵 👍
The milk was actually my favourite thing there 🤣🤣
Idk why the milk in Japan and Korea hits harder than anything especially banana and strawberry milk
Even though they have the best milk in the world, they still lack in using it to produce themselves
@@The_Honourable_Bourgeouis tbh, this is kinda lame
What about China? They also produce amazing milk in many big Chinese snack companies..
たまにショートケーキが出てくる日は争奪戦だったな〜😂小学校のカレーってなんであんなに美味しかったんだろう、戻りたい
I love hayashi rice, one of my favorite meals.
His voice over makes it sound like this is all casual, but the visuals are so well put together. Awesome job
As a Japanese-American, Hayashi rice is the best Japanese comfort food I have eaten. Its just so savory
Can’t go wrong with Hayashi rice, that thing tastes bomb with the demiglace sauce. The white strawberries are also GMO’d to taste sweeter
I think it’s refreshing that you cook your own meals , Japanese recipes no less .. especially if you’re single..
I LOVE cooking but I’d never be motivated to cook for myself especially in country with best cheap meals just around the corner
I FEEL SO LOVED RIGHT NOW I'VE BEEN GOING ON ABOUT HOW MUCH I LOVE HAYASHI RICE AND THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I SEE A FOREIGNER TALKING ABOUT IT IT MAKES MY HEART SO HAPPY
I just had lunch in my JAPANEASE school ⭐️⭐️
おいしかったです!!

懐かしい…あとビーフストロガノフの動画も欲しい！どのお店で食べたものより美味しかった…😂
blud getting a whole fine dining experience and we Americans eating stuff that isn’t even classified as food 🗿🗿
The first recipe is actually similar to this Spanish dish called mole, it’s one of my comfort foods too and it really reminds me of it!
my old public school used to give us microwaved mini pizzas that said “out of this world!” on the packaging. like it aint out of this world it’s out of my mouth 😭😭
I remember my middle schools school lunches. Michelle cracked DOWN 😭
That looks so tasty AND healthy. Definitely something i’d eat all of. I’ve never seen white strawberries though. Interesting.
I would go to school every day with a smile on my face if i knew i was getting stuff like that for lunch 😅

小学校の給食がなつかしい、、
給食のみそしるって格別にうまい
We make something like that in special occasions in my family, My absolute favorite Rice, Meat, and Gravy it’s as simple as it sounds and delicious

Are the white strawberries…pineberries per chance? Because those are amazing!
I want to go to Japanese this guy let me know everything❤❤❤❤❤
最近のイチゴってどれも甘くて美味しいよね🍓
てかハヤシライスって海外には無いのかな？それとも名前が違うだけで他の国にもある？🤔
I love how it’s filled with meat- reminds me of ur mom when she visits my house
Meanwhile elsewhere, school lunch = prison meal.
Asian food is my fave for a reason 😊
For anyone who likes experimenting a bit further, try making some omurice and then pour the hayashi sauce over the egg (I personally like the Demi sauce instead of tomato since there’s already tomato/ketchup in the rice)
My childhood😭
I love finding out about new sauces! I am gonna track some of the hayashi tomato stuff down.
Not gonna lie that japanese school lunch looks delicious
Look at ham hocks, or hog jowls are really good too, that is if you looking for more flavor instead of the bacon.
As a japansese i approve this lunch👍
nah when i was in japan and had that it was a def 1000000000/10
I was looking for this type of content, as a mom, thinking about the weekly menu is just exhausting, I don't like to repeat myself and I try to propose to my kids different things, I would love a full section of "school menu at home", of course the healthy school menu as japanese, korean and chinese menu 👌
I'm a japanese
And I loved school lunch!!!!!
Sometomes my mom makes hayashi rice for donner because she wants to make a quick and easy meal. I love it. It's full of protein from the meat.
Omg love this so so much ❤
Food that i make putting all the hardwork deserves 100/10 for me
Hayashi rice is honestly so good
japanese food is unbeatable 🔥
Comparing this to Japanese school lunches is like comparing an Italian chef making a pizza vs American school lunches.
american school lunches: moldy popcorn chicken and 3 baby carrots
simple yet delicious 👌
"Chicken noodle soup"
Bro summoned a whole fandom😂
i still find it hard to wrap my head around the fact that white strawberries are sweeter than the red ones
As a person who has eaten school meals both in the US and Japan, I approve of this video!
I like the background music, please tell us where you got it from?
This is the literal reason I wanna go to japan
Dang that looks so good
Looks delicious

Love strawberries❤
At my school they give us a slice of pizza, 3 mostly frozen french fries, and milk that probably expired before I was born.
The second you pulled out the milk I thought of that Japanese milk ad where the teachers turns into chalk
whoa those white strawberries are super expensive! I wanna try one
I think the ultimate Japanese comfort food is gyu don or oyako don, or maybe Japanese curry.
