@@nullbytYour strict speaking adds nothing to the comment, nobody mentioned countries here. The internet is not a "my country better, your country worse" competition 💀
I saw a video where this person made a challenge for themselves. S/he had to live off food/snacks from these machines in Japan. The person had X amount to play (don't remember the amount it was) and if they got a good haul they didn't have to go hungry, had a bad haul...well you're going home with an empty stomach.
Do you not realize where gelatin originally came from? There is also a basic amount of insect particles considered acceptable for all packaged food so nothing you eat is truly vegan 😘
@@DirtyRobot I get the sentiment, but Japan is pretty notorious for having an over abundance of layers in their packaging of things. Often 3 or 4 layers deep. Not just "carnival packaging" either. It is a lot of extra waste.
Always a fun time, your videos are, and when I was in Tokyo I learned very quickly that I have zero claw machine aptitude! As in I have no skills at those things. Maybe someday I'll get lucky!
Ich mag diesen Kanal. Da kann ich mich informieren, was andere Länder so essen. Es wird respektvoll mit dem Essen umgegangen und sehr gut erklärt. Was mich nur erschreckt, dass ist der ganze Verpackungsmüll und halbleere Schachteln.
I do understand the complaints about too much packaging, but for me, I actually like candy and snacks packaged this way; it prevents spoilage or going stale. If I open a package of snacks here, the whole thing is open and I have to either eat more (uh oh!) or put them into a container to preserve them. I love Japanese snacks that are individually packaged so that I don't have to worry about wasting any, or even touching any loose candies or snacks inside. Yeah, it's a lot of plastic, but it keeps fresher, and is safer to touch. Also, they are very easy to give out as little gifts that way!
A lot of the claw machines are more about using one side of the claw to nudge/knock the item over.. not really picking them up. There are a very few that picks up and those ones you have to keep playing until “payout” and then the grip will tighten on the prize and pull it to the opening
I love your girlfriend/wife shes so cute she gets all excited 😊 🤗 also some of those were good deals for what you won. Im in Chicago il USA and they are pretty pricey here compared and i love koala march one of my favorites.
How are you so good at these crane games? There was a time when I was on a road trip and at some resturant their was a crane game that gives you a unlimited amount of tries until you finally win a prize. it was only full of themed rubber ducks but I sure had one heck of a time.
You win a package! And inside that package is another package! And in that package is another package! And in that package is another package and in that package is -
I wish we could do a claw machine arcade in the US! I think though, that having to import all of those snacks would make this idea too expensive to implement.
This is unfortunately a myth. They have great SORTING initiatives but a very limited amount of what gets sorted can eventually be fully recycled. Much is exported to other countries to be burned or put into landfils or oceans
yeah plastic recycling isn't really.. A Thing like companies try to act like it is. it's extremely expensive and only certain kinds of plastic can be recycled. even when they are they only see 1-2 more lives after.
It is similar to Germany Since I come from Germany I can tell you what it is like there We often hear that a lot of things are recycled and that new plastic things are made from recycled plastic But how much is actually recycled is unclear For example, our deposit system that America does not have We buy water bottles and then when we have drunk the water bottles empty we can put them in a deposit machine There you get 25 cents per bottle If you return four bottles you will receive 1€ It drives you not to throw away the bottles but to put it in the machines and get some money back The bottles in the machines are then recycled into new bottles or plastic bags But how much is actually recycled is unknown
Even if this would be true, other countries also have fantastic recycling but also reduce the amount of packaging. Because recycling also produces waste and co². And besides that it's better for the consumers not to get tricked into buying too much air, so it's not only about waste but consumer protection
One of those game centers should mess with the people and actually have just ONE GIANT piece of candy inside the wrapper, instead of a plastic bubble with little bags inside. Imagine winning and unwrapping it, and being like, "How the hell am I supposed to eat this?!?!?!" Hahahaha
In general, it's crazy big outer packaging, a lot of plastic bags and very little edibles. This had been prohibited in Sweden. It's called misleading marketing. This when you make people believe that it is more than what you actually get.
