This is long overdue but here's what I ate in Japan! I was only thee for 5 days and things came up so I wasn't able to visit all the food places I had intended on going which is why I couldn't do a round up but next time I'm there I'll be sure to hit all the spots (i'm lookin at you summer 2019 ;)).

Japan is my favourite place on the planet. I found eating out a challenge.. I cant read much kanji and my language skills are super basic.. But everyone was so lovely and helpful. I'm ready for trip #4 after seeing your video!

Hi I know this video is old, but I was wondering if you have any videos or thoughts on how people receive vegans in Japan? I read that most Japanese people don’t really “get” even just vegetarianism and really dislike “picky” people so I am scared about living there for 6 months for my job.

@asapkpoptv5352
@asapkpoptv5352 3 года назад
What do you mean by fussy vegan lol??? Depending on how long you stay in Japan, I'd recommend hostels. It'll be the cheapest form of accommodation and hostels in Japan are a bit more private than what you would find in most countries. There are a bunch of free things you can do in Japan like walking tours and some museums have free admissions on certain days. The Imperial Palace East Garden is located in Tokyo and is free all year round. There are also some activities you can do for less than $10.00 like going to a botanical garden or an onsen. Some onsens don't allow tattoos, so be sure to check if they do if you end up going to one. That's just a quick sum of what you may find in Japan that is affordable. Hope that helps!

I want to live in Japan so badly. Is it more expensive to be vegan there than Canada or USA?
@asapkpoptv5352
@asapkpoptv5352 3 года назад
It really depends on what you like to eat. Fruits can be really expensive, bananas and apples being the most affordable. But tofu and other soy products are really affordable. The grocery store that was close to my apartment when I lived in Tokyo had a block of tofu for like 30 cents each. (This is on the cheaper end) Greens and other veggies I would say are similar in price to the USA and Canada. They don't have many mock meat options, so you'd be saving more money eating a whole foods diet. The vegan instant ramen is more expensive than non-vegan version but can only be found in certain convenient stores like Natural Lawsons. Hope that helps at all. I lived in Tokyo for 3 months on a low budget and I did just fine.

I live in Tokyo and I’m trying to figure it out how to be vegan because meat, milk egg are basically everywhere and for example in conbini or most of supermarket there is nothing non vegan.. so you have to be careful and translate every ingredient! It’s so difficult and a challenge...Also I’m not good at cooking which make everything more difficult, so I guess this is the right moment to learning how to cook so I don’t need to buy food outside everytime
