Americans Try Japanese Ramune | Almost Cultured Ep. 3

Hello, and welcome to Almost Cultured where we explore cultures in our own backyard!
We are Josh and Marissa, two best friends who believe that one of the best ways to learn about different cultures is through their food. We wanted to do just this and put our reactions on RUclips in hopes to inspire others to try foods that might be out of their comfort zone. In today’s episode, we tried Ramune, a popular Japanese soda.
We are a completely brand new channel, so, if you like what you see and want to support us, please share this video with a couple of friends who you think would enjoy Ramune. It would mean the world to us!
See our first video here: • Americans Try Tao Kae ...
Have a suggestion for what we should try next? Leave it in the comments.
Disclaimer: We are not food critics, and our thoughts and opinions about the foods that we try are subjective. We may not like a certain food or group of foods, and that’s okay. Just because we don’t like a particular food, does not mean we don’t like that culture all-together. We try to do research before sharing facts, but we are human, and throughout our journey, we may get things wrong. If this happens, please respectfully let us know, and we will work to correct any mistakes. Thank you!

You two seem to get more comfortable on camera with each video. Keep up the great work! These sodas seem interesting, especially with how much work it takes to even open them.

[@AlmostCultured2]

Thanks Dan! These videos are really good practice for me being on camera especially because I would love to make travel videos one day.

I also struggle to open ramune lol. It takes more force than you would expect!! The flavor of the original is kind of hard to describe but it tastes kind of like bubblegum to me...

[@AlmostCultured2]

I don't remember having to use that much force when I had Ramune in college. Maybe I just forgot. 🤣 -Marissa

[@A11y_Kat]

I love Ramune! Was always my go to when at sushi restaurants as a kid or even now- they’re always a fun challenge but definitely worth it!

[@AlmostCultured2]

I agree! And so different from any sodas that we have in the US. -Marissa

[@AlmostCultured2]

The plunger is something I have never seen. I was worried with the first one it was just gonna explode. Strawberry is always a great flavor in just about anything! Another week with no D Tier!
Please do the French fry flavor haha. I don't see how in any circumstance that could taste good but it sure would be interesting!

[@AlmostCultured2]

I was also worried it would explode, and we would be cleaning up a big mess on camera. Thank goodness it did not. I would be interested to try french fry flavor. One day... -Marissa

I can't wait to try French Fry flavor :P Thanks Adam! I was thinking you'd probably keep track of the tier list in some way...
