i love your whole outfit Stef!
Thank you so much for your posting☺
There are many vending machines that I have never seen before👀
Canned bread is very useful in times of disaster🍞
you're brave Steph lol, some of those foods looked horrendous. Even though I am a huge fan of Japanese foods myself.
Tried a scorpion in Thailand…it actually had the texture of beef jerky with a soy sauce flavor. What I would absolutely not try are those grub worms or silkworms.
Good job Stef! ❤😊👍
I love eating the hot corn soup from the vending machine when i'm in Japan 😂😂 .
Great video! But audio… seems muffled again
Great video Steph! Japan has so many vending machines to choose from. Thanks for the information on where to find them.
❤❤❤❤❤
I guess Steph needs money since she quit her day job to be a famous Youtube star
The vending machines are so famous and ive never seen anyone refill them, yet they never run out
Why did you take such a big bite of the slimy ball?
Such a great video, and Stephanie, you are such a cutie.
I've tried natto twice in my life, both times it was a big fat NO!
This was a fun video. You were very brave to try some of these, Steph.
Steph is a nice addition to Japan By Food. Great energy.. nice reactions! Super funny! 👏❤
You could use that bread in a can as a weapon.
🌹🤍💌💋🔥🔥🔥🔥
I have to ask: How much mouthwash did you use after filming the video? I'll bet the liquid mayonnaise that you sampled in an earlier video wasn't as bad as the takoyaki. 😵
I'll have to check out these vending machines on my next trip. Are there any specific ones to definitely try and ones to avoid?
Thank you Steph for this fun video. I love vending machines in Japan, because there is always weird and special things in them. However, this time you really had to eat very disgusting stuff 😞.
I missed you
9:12 “a soggy wet ball” cit. 😂😂😂
Lol very cute clumsiness ❤
Hehe love the out fit sooo kawaiiii!
We don't have many vending machines in NZ—there are very few, and you might not see one for a month. If you do, it will likely be vandalized or out of order. What a difference in vending machine culture! Please enjoy them in Japan!
Been waiting for this one, As an American the vending machine thing was insane when I went to Japan! I loved walking out of my hostel in the middle of the night drunk to buy some pocari sweat👍🍻 great work team🥷
It was a great pleasure to follow you again. Your face said more than 1000 Words. 😝Thanks for the great fun in the morning. 🤩Have a good time.💐
She improved now but she doesnt have a friendly face unlike Shizuka, Shizuka explains the segment well with a bubble personality. Keep up the good work though!
What’s the address for the bugs vending machine
Wow, you're a brave girl to try those items, Stephanie! Especially the takoyaki! Great video…thanks again!
i love tokyo vending machines that i can only find in japan. i mean… i can't find new york vending machines… in… japan.
Noooo to natto. I don't like viscous textures.
I tried Nattou on my last trip to Japan… Definitely not for me… 😁
The final boss Bug vending machine I feel good to see the "Made In Thailand" text on the package. That's good stuff from my country 😂
The super stylish Steph with her delightful dyed hair (matching jacket silk screening) and neat nails, partaking in what seemed as if it was mostly awful vending machine food? Glad Steph at least had something which wasn't as vile as that たこ焼き!
Poor Steph being tortured by Japan By Food…They had to make her suffer with that mayonnaise thingy on the other episode! Fun episode though! And love the early 2000s vibe outfit!
That swag though! 😌
