[hahailoveit1]

u keep swallowing

[Sierasage]

The squid looks like bacon.

[JayJayKpop]

i loove dried squid, i just love the slimy texture when chew it

[ChubbieCharms]

When I eat the dried squid, I always just gnaw on it and wait till it gets soft.. My mom thinks I'm weird for doing it xD

[obriejm1]

what is the noise in the background ???

[fuuchan27]

@obriejm1 cicadas! That's how you know its summer!

[miniaturecatz]

I like eating uncooked noodles

[NadiaEveStudio]

ah I remeber when I was like 5 and my uncle would send me packages from Japan and I would eat the dried squid like crazy XD

I wish I could get some but the closest Japanese store near where I live (that I know of) is in another state ;n;

[sorcereryk]

haha first thing to come to mind was BACON! i seriously thought it was at first.

[sarahz1981]

Emmy you are just so much fun to watch :) Thank you for taking the time to make these!

[AlicaKwinnCamn]

pulls out chopsticks to eat like 2 ramen noodles:3 lol

anyway, i just started watching your videos, and you seem like such a nice person, and your very good at describing tastes and just doing videos in general:)

[InuCho1]

When i eat uncooked ramen noodles, its sorta like eating chips

[crazyandfun15]

My family eats squad stuffed with dressing and cover in BBQ sauce then put in the oven.. Surprising good haha.

[PhotobucketSnoop]

Buy 10 of those, and you can make a bowl or ramen!

[cammiecakes1020]

i go to the asian super market all the time my favorite food i get there is mochi :)

[Azianchick123]

I love dried squid it is so good !

[valeriamuffincakes]

[madisonartistic2811]

u are very awesome i love all of your videos very cool and keep up the videos and i love the japanese snacks and candy and the food to so awesome what japanese can make

[WhatTimeIsItVidTime]

i eat dried squid all the time, i get made fun of at school because of the smell xD its not that bad, you get over it.

[candypalau14]

@WhatTimeIsItVidTime Ugh. I hate it when ppl at school start laughing at a different food just cause it smells:/ The funny thing is, when i get em to try it, they fall in love with it.:) They never stop telling me to bring more treats:) Lol

[koks111]

haha the last thing reminds me when we were child and eated instant soups without water so we just ate the noodle and added spices :D

[JONASPuppy887]

Its funny, I eat dry ramen noodles all the time when we get the instant pack things.. haha

[valeriamuffincakes]

i tasted the shrimp chips and dried squid cool video

[TheKdizzle27]

Emmy, I really love how you always describe the flavors and compare them to U.S or American snacks. It really helps us relate and understand what sort or flavor and texture experience to expect. Very nice, u should honestly look into a food magazine career or something if u aren't already? Keep up the good work and congrats on the wedding!

[gbrlgrct]

Japan is just so awesome!

[mypoop9999]

HISS HISSS HISS hiss hiss hiss HISS HISS

[manacaster]

[FioriSama]

[webcamfan2569]

@emmymadeinjapan Is there a Cheeseburger flavor or a Buffalo Wing flavor?

[xxmightyonexx]

Panda is funny as a symbol.

Milk = cheese

Panda = jerky?

Certainly not eucalyptus :P

[xxmightyonexx]

@xxmightyonexx - oh, that Chinese face on the ramen looked kinda racist. :?

[annacrazysocks]

Hey Emmy how would you spell the last one you showed in English? Or Japanese, I'm going to see if my local Japanese goods store can get it I'm really interested in it, it's very popular here, kids do that to packs of ramen, I just see that as being easier :)

Thanks for reading this :)

[fondasaurusrex]

@annacrazysocks I remember when I was a kid, I would buy Japanese noodle snacks from my local asian foods store. They had a thick noodle variety, and a thin variety. It was like eating "raw" ramen noodles, but better because they were crisper and more flavorful. If I can remember correctly, the packaging had some Japanese characters, a picture of the noodles in the background, and a little cartoon Chinese looking fellow. Try to find it the next time you go to your Japanse goods store! :)

[angelfire0923]

I thought u said "baka" instead of "baga" ahahah

[TomPMelanson]

Have you tried modeling? You have a very interesting face...

[goodmorningchap]

7.58 - 8.05 makes me giggle (:

[Dramaqueen90907]

That really makes me wanna get some squid. I've never had a whole one, but I love the bags of dried squid I used to get all the time as a kid. :)

[theflush]

My boyfriend sometimes eat dried squid. I think it smells like the treats I give my cat.

[123ladycola]

YOU SHOULD DO A SAVORY SNACK GIVE AWAY

[hellohello0716]

はし使うの上手い！

[startingoutbackwards]

Emmie..I guess I bought the wrong kind. Next time I'll look for the squid in the snack aisle..I love our Japanese Market

[scarlethex87]

i luv dried squid. wish it was a common thing here to eat. i can't find it anywhere near me.

[EmperorMAD]

I've always wanted to try one of those dried squids. I think I'll go to the japanese market tomorrow and see if they have any.

[manapoo32]

im not gonna lie i felt really cool when u brought out the giant cheeto thing because i have actually had that same one but i am in the states :) you made my sucky day so much better :)

[PonyJumpr]

The first snack is like a pork rhine



[startingoutbackwards]

I bought a dried squid at an asian market..I have it soaking in water with baking soda..I don't know if this is enough to do before I eat it? I need help with this as I'm really interested in trying it, thanks!

[emmymadeinjapan]

@startingoutbackwards - Hmm...what kind of ika did you buy? The large ones (sold along side dried fish) have an entirely different preparation, one that I'm not to familiar with to be honest. The kind I bought is sold with other snacks & is ready to eat, no soaking necessary.

[missyArEeNa]

@startingoutbackwards silly you dont soak dried squid you just eat it!

[klubwerks]

What is Emmy short for? 

[jjcooljj]

I loooooove Ika, I wish I could have found that particular one in Japan. We always get the bagged Ika, kinda shredded and more white in color.

[HPontopoftheworld]

You know how you said the corn thing smelled like ramen? I bet it was a lot like a Funyun! I always think they smell like ramen too.

[luckymango99]

Luv the vids!

[luckymango99]

hey emmy! i love savory snacks! i was sooo happy when you did this video! maybe in another video you could do sour snacks or spicy snacks? what do you think?

[megalolz98]

eww?!, it Looks Sick, but I bet It&#s Nice x

[prettypinkcupcakes55]

You should do more savoury food videos :)

[carleteppon]

It was funny when u used chopsticks to eat the ramen snack lol try ベビースターラーメン if u havent tried. It's a famous ramen snack in Japan.

[emadtheman]

doremon ?

[MrBrokensoul26]

He just DIED a couple of months ago..but anyways..I had to laugh so hard :)

[startingoutbackwards]

that dried squid looks interesting. Ive seen it at an asian market and some of them are more than 2 feet long. I didnt know how they were supposed to be eaten. Thanks for posting!!

[everything7865]

cheese strings xD

[001jameschew]

sound like Cicada in the back ground????

[hockeygoalie1011]

Is the dried squid kind of like beef jerky in japan?

[KnightSaziel]

I feel like the video is whispering to me, haha. Great video :D

[animefreakgrim]

I like this drift away from the sweets it helps with recommendations for new snacks to try thanks I'd love to see another episode of savory snacks b(-.-)b -thumbs up

[artsncrafts101]

did you win?

[melanie4721]

i tried o ne of those they are soooo good

[TheIttybittykittykat]

does squid taste like bacon lol random question but it looks like it

[MelodieeeL]

@TheIttybittykittykat

No, just like she said it has a very fishy taste.

It is salty but delicious.

[GabbyYouDidnt]

I love this. I'd try every single one of those things.

I'm from louisiana, US..New Orleans to be specific, and I enjoy savory foods more than sweets. (I can't help but watch those cute candy videos though!)

You should do a lot more of these savory snacks..It seems like you enjoyed it ..I know I did!

[makocha55]

so cute,i am fun.

[cheskydivision]

Squid looks like beef jerky. 

[celo432]

I thank my mother for taking me to Asian markets when I was young (Even though I am not Asian), because dried squid and octopus is amazing!

[USEYOURNAME5031]

when you said "OH YEAH!" i instantly thought of the koolaid man.... LOL

[ploopy98]

Hey Emmy :) could u try making a candy set called the takoyaki set or something..? RRcherrypie has a video of it, maybe u could watch it :) I would really wanna see your reaction! Thanks! :)

[izzysienna]

@emmyinjapan I plan on going to Japan next year, and I was wondering where do you get your candy? So maybe I could go there

[ShmokoMakesThings]

Is the squid really fishy tasting?

[goldlower]

mmmm~ dried squid tastes soooo good! haven't had those in years! I think im gonna go get some after watching this (: btw you should eat dried squid with beer :D thats the best

[ChuckingxDarts]

The squid was very interesting!!!

[Tigerlilly0777]

Nummy~

[turtleluver98]

What does squid taste like???

[nikonf4929]

I love dried squid. I remember how I used to be scared of them because it was so weird to me, but once I tried it, it wasn't so bad and it's so addicting sometimes. Love your videos Emmy :) They're very entertaining to watch.

[RainbowPants17]

Squid.. o.o..

[BarbieWearsPink]

Loved it really neat thanks Emmy hope to see more like this one!

[sonyagze]

Would you say that the dried squid is like beef jerky then??

[emmymadeinjapan]

@sonyagze - Exactly, but made with squid instead of beef :)

[alinthenameofscience]

in singapore, we have the 1st,3rd and last snacks. :)

[EpicFailureee]

you can get the teriyaki burger stick at grocery store..like everywhere

[ammth1019]

you eat everything so delicately! I love it!

[emmymadeinjapan]

@ammth1019 :)

[angBoe]

it would have been so cute if you ate the mini ramen with mini chopsticks :D LOLOL

[Susanlucena]

Not sure about the dried squid, I would try it tho, even tho I am not a fan of seafood. All the others looked yummy. Keep up the good work. I am so glad I came across your site. You are awesome.

[emmymadeinjapan]

@Susanlucena - Thanks! and welcome to Emmymade in Japan.

[jewelschan]

I've noticed there are a lot of savory snacks on the websites I've looked at. Its nice to see someone say what they taste like before hand. Go and share more stuff with us, its always fun to watch your videos! =3

[scarlet2589]

if ur gonna tell me to search it up online can u please tell me the link to which u purchase ur candy :l Please?

[misssarahswan]

@scarlet2589 try amazon or ebay... I've ordered some from there and it's really reasonably priced

[emmymadeinjapan]

@scarlet2589 - I live in Japan & therefore don't buy online, but if you read through the comments on some of my videos you'll find that many have left links & suggestions. Good luck

[GreyEarlTea]

Omg. I'm like.. salivating because I wan't to taste that soo bad. .___.;

[Jenicuuh]

are you wearing eyeliner? if your are, its so cuuute! :D

[Yoachan]

squid jerky!  I wanna try it!

[phmn94]

When I saw the Umai...I thought of Akihabara@deep. XD

[daitasticc]

Hehe maybe that salty one will taste good on some rice :D

[Taicligh]

Ha, yes! Showing everyone I know this video just for the ramen one. Everyone looks at me like I'm crazy for just opening the ramen up and eating it. =|

[superjenimay]

dried sqeind eeeeeeeeeeeeeewwwwwwww

[bloomtan]

lol i like the first snack since i was young i can't find it anymore in singapore anymore though and the dried noodles remind me of a noodle snack called mummie monster (i think) and you  crush the noodles and shake it too

[WatanabeEmiko]

Salty rules : )

[Niksia7]

I love sweets (serious sweet tooth!), but it's nice seeing other stuff too. :)

[XxPuddingFaceXx]

I adore Asian candies.snacks because they're so different from American ones. Why grab a bag of potato chips when I can have delicious dried squid! Asian snacks have personality and they are fun to eat! The packaging is what gets me...so cute. It's always an adventure when I go to an Asian market. The food samples are also really fun. ^___^

[amyswold]

do a japanise baby food challenge

[msmonky9]

my social studie teachers son lives in japan and he would come in every once in a while and bring diffrent snacks my favorite were some kind of sesioned seaweed and some kind of squid they were very good but as you said the texture was very diffrent :D

[MelodieeeL]

I love dried squid!

[taeyonwuvsyou]

i love dried squid and raw ramen! wow... japan's snacks are so creative!!

[PhoebeChanz]

You said ika. I thought "IKA MUSUME?" I have to get outside more..

[HaiHaiNana]

the cicadas in the background make me feel so nostalgic D;

[neineichannel]

what a good name ya da men :D

[pansyed]

omg the noodle, such a smalll amount. usually i buy them in packets and that amount in the package is usually the amount i pop in my mouth and finish in 3seconds

[pansyed]

wait what u mean its not COOKED? so its infact raw...

[Firefury12]

iv never had dried squid but i love calimary or however its spelled

[Ancsee013]

dried squid is a little bit bizarre... i think... i couldn't have eat it

[KiraKiraProject]

@Ancsee013 I love dried squid :) It's the best.

[nunyabiznazz2004]

Growing up I used to just squish up my ramen package a bit, empty the seasoning packet in it, shake it up, and munch on it for a while. :) lol Tasty.

[MacBookPro56]

@nunyabiznazz2004 lol people think that its stupid to eat it raw, but i think it tastes much better!

[vbRose17]

@nunyabiznazz2004 SAME HERE, BRO!!

[0hSimplicity]

looove dried squid :) especially the ones that are seasoned with chili!

[BDDuran]

I LOVED those things!

[HandmadeEverithingcs]

Ohh yummy!! I'm not a fish person but the squid looks good :P!!

[Silver103]

definitely a nice change! you should really do more savory snacks like these ^.^ the second I saw that squid, though, wow. I'm glad you reviewed those cause i was always a little curious about their taste and texture and now I kind of wanna try one. I trust your judgement so maybe one day I'll go to a Japanese market and pick one up :D

[emmymadeinjapan]

@Silver103 - Yay! Glad you liked the change up & you should definitely try dried squid some day.

[polymerclayfreak]

it looks so good, everthing! (:

[anameizing]

omg they used to sell those corn snacks (the first snack you showed) when i was in primary school. it's sooo good! i miss them :<

[MidoriShiawase]

I like it when you change the videos once in a while, because I like the savory snacks.

[emmymadeinjapan]

@MidoriShiawase - Thanks - me too!

[lillisa2244]

[Lemonade566]
