Waiter! I've got bugs in my rice!

“Nanikore Chin Hyakkei” travels to Shizuoka prefecture and tries out some yellow jackets (Vespula flaviceps) mixed with rice.  Before we even  take a look at this video, even the sight of the video has physically made me sick!  But even a look at the comedians who ate the gruesome looking dish are quite surprised by how good it tastes since the bugs taste very much like sakura shrimp.

Ramen with Mayonnaise Flavoured Soup

Who would have thought that Mayonnaise and Ramen would go so well together?  Well only the Japanese do!

“Nanikore Chin Hakkei” finds a restaurant in Gunma prefecture that proudly serves mayonnaise ramen: Maybe I am hungry but I certainly would like to try that ramen for myself!  IF it is that creamy with Ramen since it is mayonnaise is made from egg yolks... may boost your cholesterol levels up high! :P Would you like to try this ramen?
