Alright.
Do you like gums?
Gum?
Chewing gums?
Uh...
I'm not a regular chewer, but I don't hate it at all.
Once in a blue moon, I want to like chew it sometimes, but not often.
Do American people chew them?
A lot.
A lot, yeah?
Yeah, they do.
Of course daily, but also during work as well.
Chew gum.
Like if you're in school, you can chew gum.
It's said that it helps your brain function.
So, yeah.
It's part of the culture, I guess.
I had one this afternoon.
And I found it's really, really small.
Oh yeah?
Really tiny.
You know, one piece of gum.
You don't think so?
Isn't it like too small?
Wait, what did you chew?
You know, the bar type.
Like the usual, you know those...
Classic ones?
Yeah, those.
Yeah, the usual ones.
Like thin, thin ass sheets?
Oh no, the like, zubu one, you know.
Oh, like kuroretsu, kishiritoru kind of thing?
Like the ones you can find in like a...
Oh, yeah.
03:00
Like a jar?
Yeah.
Like a plastic jar?
The same one, but the bar type, you know.
Oh.
Yeah, it's been a while actually.
I haven't been chewing, chewed those, you know, gums.
But I found that, you know, it was really, really tiny.
Like way tiny.
Yeah, true.
And I think the ones you can find in the US are a lot more bigger.
Oh, really?
I think.
But I do not know.
Because I haven't chewed a gum from the US in a very long time.
So maybe it changed.
Oh, okay.
But, yeah, like it's...
It's very imaginable.
Yeah.
Japanese gums are a lot more smaller.
Was that your point?
Yeah, that was my point.
The Japanese gums are a lot more smaller and less satisfying than in the States or wherever else.
Yeah.
Simply I just want to say that was too small.
Was it...
Why did you decide to chew that gum this morning?
Well, I actually tried to, you know, have the candy, Nodoame candy.
I usually carry one pack of Nodoame, but I don't have that today.
So I found that, you know, bottle of gums in the backpack.
Oh, just randomly found it?
Yeah.
Okay.
Got it.
Good for you.
Yeah, thank you.
And also we had a lot of snacks that Amazon provides us.
Yes.
Kindly.
Yes.
Thank you.
Thank you, Amazon.
In those pack, we found the Kanto-rimamu.
Yes.
And that was too small too.
Yeah, I think Kanto-rimamu is one of the biggest shrinkers this era has experienced.
I didn't know that.
You know.
So my image of Kanto-rimamu is like this big.
Yeah, same to me, like this big.
This big.
Yeah.
Now, it's like...
Yeah.
That was like...
It's fucking crazy.
Yeah, ridiculously.
Ridiculous.
Do you think they still have one?
I guess so.
Yeah.
I'm going to go bring one right now.
Oh, yeah.
I'm going to...
This is ridiculous.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Well, actually, we're in the studio.
It's called podcast studio.
And we have those huge and really heavy doors for the Bullwun studios.
06:04
So it's really heavy and it's kind of hard even for Kevin to open those two heavy doors.
Yeah.
I got it.
Here we go.
Found it.
Found it.
Found it.
Found it.
All right.
Yeah.
Well, you had Fugashi too.
Wow.
Yeah.
Thank you.
Thank you.
That was fun.
So there we go.
Kanto-rimamu.
Kanto-rimamu now on the market right now today.
I love Kanto-rimamu.
They're good.
They are good.
I love them too.
But what the fuck?
What the fuck is this?
It is so fucking small.
Oh, yeah.
How many centimeters is this?
It's kind of...
Two and a half?
Yeah.
Three?
When you open the package and still have image of that Kanto-rimamu has this big size.
This is a dog treat for the U.S.
Dog treat.
Yeah.
It's a treat for dogs.
You give these to your dogs.
Oh, God.
How's the taste?
It's really good.
Okay.
Yeah.
That's the thing.
Yeah.
It's really good.
They are good.
Yeah.
They are good.
They are good.
They are good.
Yeah.
But, yeah.
What was that?
The strawberry?
No?
You're tasting it.
So...
It was difficult.
Oh, really?
Chocola.
Chocola fraise.
Oh, that's strawberry.
Chocola fraise is strawberry?
Yeah, chocolate strawberry in French.
Oh.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You smell it.
Oh, thank you.
Okay.
I don't know why I said thank you.
But, yeah.
It was strawberry.
Yeah.
But, um, I agree.
A lot of things have gotten very small.
True.
Smaller and smaller.
You know?
That's sad.
That's sad.
But...
I would pay more.
Yeah.
Like, I would actually...
Like, it's better to raise their price and have the actual candy full size.
Yeah.
Than keep the price.
True.
And, like, less and less, like, you know?
Yeah.
And the candy.
So, yeah.
Yeah.
It is better to, like...
True.
Raise their price, I think.
Kind of, you know, cheating to me.
Yeah.
You know?
Yeah.
It's like...
It just almost feels bad faith.
Yeah.
You know?
Just feels like you're, like, being dishonest to the consumer.
Yeah.
Kind of, yeah.
09:00
You know?
I agree.
Yeah.
I agree.
Please just say it's, you know, we had, you know, costs are, you know, getting bigger.
So, we have to raise the price.
Sorry.
Yeah.
That's better.
I feel like the consumer is more, like, understanding than how the companies are afraid of, like...
Yeah.
True.
They're more understanding than they think.
Yeah.
It's okay, like, juu-en, ni-juu-en.
Yeah.
You know?
It's okay.
You know Umaibo's raising their price?
Oh, really?
Yeah.
From...
Or Garigari-kun?
It was either one.
