- Hey, what's up? We're the Try Guys, and today, we are trying... - Ultimate Japanese Candy. - Why? Well, one of our Patrons, onstaa, actually gave us a bunch of Japanese candy. And we're like, well, I guess we'll make a video with it, huh? Because we gotta have a video. We gotta make videos and-- - Everything is content. - Two a week, all the time. So guess what, a gift becomes a video. (upbeat music) - Let's try the first Japanese candy. - Bring it, Sam. - Throw it. (upbeat music) - Woo! Oh. - Oh, I know this. - They're like Japanese freeze pops. - They're very popular in Asia and around the world. These are also in Latinx countries too. - This seems fun, this is like those popsicles that we got to suck on as a kid. - Look at this tiny little ball at the end of this. What's that little ball for, you wonder? Mm, we all wonder, don't we? - You need to cut it from the top, so you can circumcise it, or you can just castrate it. - Oh, wow. Let's castrate it. - [Eugene] Wait, it's not wanting to. - That's a-- - Oh! (laughing) Did I circumcise it too hard? - Ugh. Oh, I don't like this. - I loved these as a kid, oh my God. They almost taste slightly cotton candy-esque, right? Or like, bubble gummy. - The little bit of English on here is pretty funny. - Read it out. - Cool drink, freezing candy, deliciousful, pleasant, refreshing, soft drink, good flavor, for you! - I'm gonna clean off my glasses, 'cause there's deliciousfulness all over it. - Okay, I'm throwing away the deliciousful pleasant. (uplifting music) - [Eugene] Ooh! - [Ned] Ooh! Kit Kat. - Strawberry ice cream? - Strawberry shortcake. - Strawberry shortcake? Oh, and look at the cute little animals enjoying on the back. And they're all in the Arctic for some reason. - Oh, can I tell you a cute story? - Sure. - Maggie, my girlfriend, loves green tea Kit Kats, that was something we talked about when we first started dating, so I got green tea Kit Kats shipped from Japan, it took two and a half months, and I surprised her, and they all melted in transit, and they became just one big old weird block of Kit Kat, but it was very cute, and I had them in my freezer for months. - Once I ordered Becky something, and I didn't realize it was from Russia, and it also took two and a half months, so it came way late for her birthday. - And snap. ♪ Break me off a piece of that ♪ ♪ Japanese Kit ♪ - [Ned] That's delicious. - It tastes like strawberry ice cream with like a cracker in it. - Very strong flavor. - If this was at a Bath & Body Works I would drop this in my tub. - Oh yeah, this looks like a bath bomb, doesn't it? - I would rub this all over my baby soft skin. - It has an overwhelming cream taste. - I can't say that I like it, it's a little too overpowering for me. I think I would've liked it as a kid. - [Keith] Sweet, crunchy, nutty. - Oh yeah, oh yeah. - Oh yeah! - Oh yeah! - Oh yeah! - Yes, Kitty Kat. - Mm, meow, meow. Break me off a piece of that, you can't, 'cause there's only one. (upbeat music) - It's Hello Kitty. This has to be, well, it says green tea flavor, this one has English on it. - I did not know that Hello Kitty made food. - Dude, Hello Kitty makes everything. Purses, candies, sandwiches, shops, tea, toys, airplanes, cars, seat cushions, wallpaper, seat cushions. (laughing) (lighthearted music) - Ooh. Here's the thing, when I get a matcha latte, I kinda think I'm still gonna get a latte. Nope! You're getting a mouthful of grass with some creamer. - It's delicious! - It sucks! - I like the matcha latte because it gives it a little, I don't know, Earthy feel. - You like grass? - I love grass. - You like eating grass? - I like thick grass. - Oh, look at that mistake. That was upside down! (laughing) Goodbye, Kitty. I'm kidding, I'm still gonna enjoy the snack. - I have a couple Asian friends who don't like how matcha tastes, and I think it's-- - You think it's a mandatory-- - Unacceptable. - Mhm, mhm. - Matcha is a gift from the tea gods. - I loved these as a kids because you-- - Uh huh. Yeah, see, I'm running this playground, see? Everything's a cigarette when you're a child. (laughing) - Next up, horrifying faces! - Spooky face candy! - Oh, look how cute these are. - Oh, those are so cute! - What the fuck are they? - Is this like a dumpling? - I like on this, there's a little like, dust bunny demon, a robot, and a skeleton. - Oh, no! It's little candies. Cheers. Mm. - They have the chalky texture of Smarties, but the taste is better. - It's a pretty good SweeTart. - I'm sucking down a grape right now, and I'm not loving it. - I just ate one, but now I want to eat all of them. - Don't do it, Ned, don't do it... - Why is grape flavor always so shitty? It is always the worst flavor in any candy when in real life, grapes are delicious. - You're gonna have a sugar high. (maniacally laughing) Ned, you have a baby you gotta take care of later. - Don't get me wrong, I love grape, I adore it, I wish it the best-- - Whoa, too much sugar now. (laughing) - You need more sugar. - I don't like this. - You need more sugar, daddy. - No, it's just too much! (laughing) Oh, wow. - It hurts me to see it like this. - Yeah, it's really represented poorly in pop culture. (laughing) - All right, next up is Pure, or is it puree? - Kenro Pure. Sour stars! - So this is either lemon or yuzu. - Ooh, let's yuzu. Let's try it. - Japanese lemon. - These are great, this is just lemon sour candy. - Mm, these are really good, it's like a lemon peach ring. Sour Patch Kids, but just lemon. - Mhm. - Citrus-y, sour, delicious. - They're really good. If I was eating this first, I would be very happy. - I mean, it does taste better than any lemon sour I've had in America, you know what? - And this is a real lemon, I'm getting full zest. None of that watered down bullshit. Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah. - Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah. No, no, no. No, no, no! - [Zach] No, no, no! - No, no, no! - No, no, no! - This is the real deal. - [Eugene] Ooh, Sours. - [Ned] Sours! - [Eugene] It's a gummy. - [Ned] Gummy, ooh. - This has some English on it. - And it's got Coke. I mean, brown soda. - That sounds promising. - That sounds good. That sounds good. - Oh my God. Oh, what is that texture? - It's so stiff. - [Ned] I think I'd just rather be drinking a Coke. - I don't know, I kinda like this. It's like, distilled all the Coke flavor into a gummy. It has like a slight sweet, sour sugar around it. - Mhm. - Ugh, it tastes-- - Ugh! - It has like a cinnamon candy. Are we sure this isn't stale? 'Cause it smells stale, and it chews stale. - I like it, I feel like it tastes like all your theater candy and soda put into one little gummy. - Uh, this is terrible-- - We're done! Let's move on, what's next, I hated it! - Oh! - Oh! (upbeat music) - [Ned] Ugh, more tea. - Oh, this is gonna be delicious. I'm very familiar with candies like this. - What are they? - What are they called, little buns. - Are we about to get some matcha up in here? Fuck yeah, I'm in. - I don't like matcha. - I'm gonna try it. Mm, aw. - Just a little crumblier. - Ugh, ah, ah, oh. - Mm, mm! - Ooh. - Ugh. - Ah, I don't like it. (mock crying) It's like eating sand. - It's like eating spland. - The texture's like eating sand, and the flavor's bad. - Ah! - [Eugene] That's delicious, what are you talking about? - It's so ugh! - It's a little chalky. - Very chalky. It's like I ate into a cloud of tea dust. - This is a futuristic texture that I don't think anyone's ready for. - I guess I don't like-- - Green tea? - Green tea that much. - Guess we can't be friends anymore, Ned. - What? Come on, I'll try it. - I don't accept matcha haters in my crew. - I didn't say I hated it, I just said I preferred coffee. (upbeat music) - [Eugene] Caplico. - [Ned] Caplico. - This is an ice cream cone. - Oh, it's Italian. - Do you think it's... (laughing) - This is an ice cream snack. - It's like an ice cube tray? - Yeah, this is-- - This is a lot of unnecessary plastic. - I don't like this work. Woo! - [Ned] Yes! - [Eugene] But the popping action is very much like a giant blackhead. - Doesn't this, yeah. - [Eugene] Like, it's like a big whitehead like that. - [Ned] I was thinking of a giant cavity that got ripped out of your mouth. - It smells like the Pocky chocolate, the chocolate that comes on Pocky. - Bunch of crunch, exactly. It's just chocolate. - Mm, it does taste like ice cream though. - [Eugene] It's tastes like marshmallow chocolate. - Malted chocolate, damn. - That's good. - Just to double check. - Okay, Ned, you keep eating too much. - Just to double check. - No more, Ned. - Tastes like ice cream. No, there's a lot more to go. (upbeat music) - So, I know you know this because you've been on the internet before. Japan has all these, like, assemble your own candies, and this is one of them. It's a good idea, right? Parents are like, I don't want to give my kid candy, but I do want to keep them busy, and they want candy, so what if I make them work for 30 minutes to make their candy. - There's picture instructions that I'm gonna follow like IKEA. - [Ned] Strawberry goes in star. - Everything gets water, huh? - Oh! - Whee, whee, whee! ♪ Stirrin' up the sauce ♪ ♪ Stirrin' it up ♪ - I haven't mixed powders this fine since chemistry class. - [Keith] Sprinkle sprinkles. - [Ned] So I think we get a little bit of mush. - [Eugene] Get more of it, get more of the mush. - [Ned] And then you dip it in your preferred flavor. - [Eugene] And then I'm gonna put some sprinkles on it. - [Ned] Yay! We made our own-- - [Eugene] Mush stuff. - Mush pops! (dramatic music) (laughing) - Ugh! - [Ned] It's sweet for sure. - I don't like this one. Also, that was too much work for that small of a bite. - Well, I think that's kind of half the fun. (clears throat) - That's how you make a Japanese cake pop, and I hope you like this tutorial. Follow us on Tumblr. - Definitely looks like-- - Stop eating it! - It's not bad. - Oh, I think we gotta cut out this section. (upbeat music) This one is Japanese condoms. - Boom! - Oh, the texture's crazy, and dissolves, this one's good. - It dissolves instantly. - [Eugene] Oh! - Whoa, whoa. - Wow, surprised. - This melts in your mouth really quickly. - Yeah, it disintegrates, it's like what's it called. It's like a vitamin. - That's good. - Yeah, it's like so compressed, I can't break it with my little fingers, and then I go-- - Oh, my God. My throat is getting so gummy. - Yeah, my throat is just getting coated. (laughing) - I want lemon. Mm. - Oh my God, Ned. You can't eat all this candy. - It dissolves so quickly. - You are turning crazy. - It dissolves so quickly. This is everything I wanted those matcha candies to be and more. - You can't stop eating it, Ned. You've had so much candy. You're gonna crash after this. - No. - And then you're gonna crash and you won't-- - No. - You won't be able to go home. - No. - Aw, yeah! Panda faces. Oh my God, that's horrifying. It looks like they've ripped his skin off, and that's the skull underneath. - Pink panda bears, made in a strawberry-- - Saku pon. - Saku pon. (grunting) - Oh, God, Ned. - Oh, yeah. (mumbling) - Panda. Ah! - Panda. Aw. - It has like a strong strawberry cream flavor. - Oh boy! - I like this, this is great. All the matcha comes home with me. - Why do people like grass candy? - Why do you have an unrefined palette? - I just don't want to eat grass. (laughing) Like, this tastes like something a panda would eat. - I will say, Japan, in these candies, are very obsessed when it's strawberry to have like a strawberry cream. It's not a pure sugar strawberry, it always tastes like it's mixed with vanilla or something. - Oh God, I'm sweating. (lighthearted music) ♪ Little children lollypops made of chocolate ♪ ♪ Little children lollypops made of chocolate ♪ - Well, do you want to eat the girl or the boy? - This is straight up chocolate. - Delicious milk chocolate. - Wow, that's delicious. (chuckling) - I don't like sucking on the kid's head though. It's a weird visual. - We always talk about melting people's faces off with our content. - Oh, no! If you clean the oven, you have to go all the way into the back, just reach way back on in there, children. - Oh, back here? - Back, yes, children, all the way in the back of the oven. - Okay, here we go. - Ah! (laughing) Come on, come on! Yeah! Ah! - You know how some Europeans will understand the flavor of Japanese chocolate candy? It's like Kinder. All the chocolate stuff we tried so far, including the strawberry stuff, has that Kinder-y, cream-forward additional taste. - Yeah, it's like cheap Halloween chocolate. You know, the shitty chocolate you get, like the little foil eggs. (catchy music) - [Eugene] This is a great package. - Whoa! - Super Lemon! - Wow, these candies are exploding in their mouths. They don't look like they're having fun. This isn't an advertisement, this is a threat. - Oh, this-- - This looks like it's gonna be sour. - This is gonna fuck us up. - No, it'll fuck Keith up. - I'm gonna eat it first. - This one's covered in... - Give... - Uh oh. It's gonna be sour, isn't it? (intense music) (laughing) - That's like a lemon Warhead, but more sugary. Let's cut to Keith's reaction of Super Lemon right now. - I'm very sensitive to sour things. I saw this, and my mouth is already full of saliva. - I think it's delicious, but, it's gonna be one... (laughing) (intense music) - Oh! Woo! Oh my God! (mumbling) This should be like a YouTube challenge. This is so intense, to eat this whole thing. (catchy music) - [Ned] It's like a Drumstick, but all wafer. - This is just basically an actual ice cream cone. - Like, look at the weird bee colony inside of this. What's happening? - Oh, do you know that phobia where you hate holes? - Oh yeah, people would not like this if they hated holes. (chuckling) - Not bad. - Mm. - Oh, it tastes like a-- - Neapolitan wafer. - Neapolitan wafers, maybe. I'd rather have actual ice cream, but this is fun. - I like the cone. The cone is kind of like a sugar cone. - Why are you still eating it? - There's something nostalgic about it, even though this wasn't a part of my childhood. (catchy music) - [Ned] We get to make our own sushi candy? - Poppin' Cookin Tanoshii Sushi. - Make some rice! Fill the oval depression number one with water, then add powder from the blue packet. Stir until thick like cooked rice. I would say it looks kind of like rice. - [Keith] Salmon roe goes there, rice goes there. - And then this is for the soy sauce. Wow, this is so straightforward. - So, we just squish it. - Oh, it's dried seaweed, got it. That's cute. Mix your B, which looks like the salmon roe is dropping slowly into mixture A, so it looks like salmon roe. This is the most exciting thing in this entire taste test. - This is my omakase dinner, chef's choice. (calming string music) - [Ned] Those little balls are amazing. - [Eugene] Yeah, the salmon roe is the most impressive part. - [Ned] Yeah. - [Eugene] The sashimi. Look at how beautiful. - Look at our sushi dinner! This is actually pretty cool. - That's cool. - Look at it! Look at my little sushi! - I don't think you're gonna like it. - I don't. - Hm. - Hm. - It looks like sushi, it tastes like jelly. - It tastes nothing like sushi. - Oh no, it's a candy. - I hate it, I hate... I'm experiencing something weird. It looks too much like sushi, and then tastes too much like candy. - Ah, is this how Keith feels when he eats a lot of things? (catchy music) - This is awesome, not only are these toilet candies, you know this is from Japan because they have little electronic bidet buttons. - We don't have those. - I'm so jealous of how clean their butts are. - I know, I wish that all of our toilets came with the bidet. - [Ned] One goes into four. So that's-- - [Eugene] Aw, cute. - We don't need any instructions. Put that there, put this here. - Hey, put that there! (yelling) - Okay, let's pour the dust in. - I know, but which dust in? What I'm wondering is if red for poo, and blue for water? - Yeah, red for poo. - [Eugene] Oh, there we go, it's foamy. - [Ned] We got a plumbing issue! - [Eugene] Well, I guess you gotta drink it. - [Ned] Oh no! (whimsical music) Ugh. (laughing) - [Eugene] Is it good? - No. - [Eugene] 'Cause it looks appetizing. - Oh. You're not gonna like that. - It's like a blast of lime, it's so sharp. Oh yeah, there we go. - [Eugene] Oh, there we go. - [Ned] Oh boy. - Nom, nom, nom, give me your poop! - Yay, that was delicious. Oops. (laughing) Oh wow, that's fun. - [Zach] Yeah, wait, here's an idea. Oh, Mr. Stark, I don't feel so good. Ugh... (yelling) - Oh, that was too much water. (yelling) - Well, this has been the Try Guys Japanese Candy Taste Test. Thank you, onstaa, for giving us all these Japanese candies. What I learned is, Japanese candy is both generally sweeter, creamier, and also more fun to assemble than other candies. - You know, I think we can learn a lot from each other internationally. Because while here in America, our parents say that you shouldn't play with your food, Japan is here to say, yes you fuckin' should. - If you got a sweet tooth but you're also an engineer at heart, then try building a toilet before you eat your candy. - I'm not a child anymore, so candy's just not my thing, but it was fun, it's always fun to taste the world. Thanks for watching another episode of... - Try Guys Taste Time! - Try Guys Taste Time! - Yum! (catchy music) Pandas are dying. - The reason there aren't enough pandas is the pandas won't fuck. - That is true. - It's not so much that, like, they just won't-- - [Zach] They just won't fuck. - Like, they don't find each other attractive.
