Hey guys!

So my friend Jackie, or NerdECrafter here on YouTube

I'll link her channel here and down below, go check her out

She's in Tokyo right now!

She brought me the biggest haul of things I miss from Canada

I thought it would be a good oppurtunity to talk to you guys

about all the foods I miss from Canada

and kind of show off all the things that I got

I'm so excited to eat them, you have no idea!

So the number one thing that I miss from Canada...

If you watch lots of my videos I'm sure you've heard me talk about this

because I complain about it all the time

Breakfast cereal

All of the breakfast cereals~ I want them all

She brought me 5 different kinds!

There's actually a couple cereals here that I haven't tried before

So I'm excited for those! Like, Captain Crunch

This will be a new one for me

So for my Japanese viewers...

In Canada we have a gigantic selection of breakfast cereals

All different flavours, shapes, ingredients

Made out of corn or wheat or rice

There's just such a huge selection!

I'll try to find a picture of a Canadian cereal aisle

So you can see the amazingness that is Canadian cereals

I personally like the really simple ones like Honey Nut Cheerios

or Special K... But!

This is one of my all time favourites

And she went through a lot of trouble to find this for me

So thank you Jackie, I really appreciate it!!

Reese Puffs - these are chocolate and peanut butter cereal

Reese's in general are not really available in Japan

Even just the regular chocolates themselves

A few stores started selling them, but they're kinda hard to find

So YAY so excited!

Breakfast cereals are definitely my #1 missed food while living in Japan

#2 would have to be pie

Well she couldn't bring me a pie, but she did the next best thing

and she brought me cans of pumpkin pie filling

and this isn't just pumpkin

It's spiced with all the pumpkin pie spices, and there's sugar and everything in here

So even if I can't bake a pie

Because I don't have an oven here in Japan

That's another common thing, is to not have an oven in your apartment

I could just eat this straight out of the can

So this is perfect

One big thing that I miss from Canada

Japan you need more pies please

Somebody open up a pie restaurant here

There's one in Shinagawa! And they have pumpkin pie

But it's really expensive and the pieces are way too small

But if you're really craving pie you can go to that place

I'll put the address down below

#3 would be peanut butter

Now peanut butter exists in Japan

You can often find this Skippy type at just a regular grocery store

But it's very expensive and they often only have just one kind

So this was probably about $5 in Canadian/American

So that's pretty pricey for a little container of it

And they don't have the natural peanut butter

That's the stuff that I miss the most

The stuff that's made just out of peanuts, with a little bit of salt or something

These ones have sugar and oils in them

It's good when you're desperate, but not my favourite

And look what Jackie brought me

It's peanut butter and chocolate spread

Even better than Nutella, if that evens sounds possible

I'm pretty sure this is going to be amazing

I cannot wait to try this

Actually I think I'm going to open it right now and just eat some

Because I can't wait

Apparently this is a new thing in Canada

I had never heard of it

Holy crap that smells so good

Look at it~

Oh it's really thick

Holy shit

Yep just tastes like the filling of a Reese's Peanut Butter Cup

Heaven in a can!

This is a new thing for me but this will be a new thing I miss from Canada

It's probably gonna be #1 on the list

This is amazing

One other thing that I miss, which is weird

because it's not really something that I eat a lot in Canada

But I just have a craving for it, it's because I can't get it here

Kraft Dinner (Macaroni and Cheese)

So horrible and so unhealthy

I actually prefer the Annie's - it's like the natural healthy Kraft Dinner

But just any kind of instant Macaroni and Cheese product

I really miss that sometimes and get really bad cravings for it

You can find it at specialty foreign foods stores

If you're desperate you can go into Tokyo

and I'm sure you'd be able to find it in one of those, I've seen it before

As for normal grocery stores they definitely don't sell anything like that

The last thing I miss from Canada is the huge selection of non-meat meat products

So like, chicken nuggets that are made out of tofu

Or tofurky, or the tofu ham slices

My family is vegetarian, so we eat lots of those

And I really miss them, they're so delicious

Japan has, of course, a really big tofu selection

So it's not hard to find really yummy tofu here

But I really miss all the tofu nuggets and stuff

I was just so addicted to those

Every time I go back to Canada I'm always asking my Mom to stock up on those

so that I can eat them every night

There aren't many vegetarians here

So there is not really a market for those kind of products

So you probably won't be seeing many of those here in the future as well

Which is sad

Japan has lots of other amazing foods

I've been trying to show more vegetarian, and special diet related places

that you guys can eat at here

I visited a gluten-free cafe in a recent video, over on my second channel

So if you can eat gluten and you're looking for a place to eat in Tokyo

Go check out that video - it's the day one of my Vlogmas vlogs

I've been trying to visit more vegetarian and vegan cafes as well

Hopefully show you guys some more options of stuff you can eat here

It definitely exists, so if you look hard enough you can find them

So I hope that gave you guys some ideas of things

that you should bring over to Japan with you if you're gonna move here

Fill your suitcase up with cereals, you will thank me

If any of you guys live overseas

Let me know in the comments stuff that you miss from your country

I'm always curious to see what people start craving when they're in another country

Thanks for watching guys, and I'll see you soon! Bye!

I'm posting a video every day over on my 2nd channel for Vlogmas!
