All right.

Crown Burgersの魅力
Crown Burgers. Okay.
Uh-oh.
Okay.
I can't forget it.
I can't get enough of the fries with the fries.
There is no burger chain that surpasses this in everything, I swear.
Yuta-shu is unfamiliar to Japanese people.
In addition, the culture is a little special.
But I think there is a charm that exceeds it.
Honestly, I want you to come for the Crown Burgers.
If you have the opportunity to come to Yuta-shu,
please visit the Crown Burgers.
I will definitely update the hamburger ranking.
I've never been to the Crown Burgers.
Really?
I've never heard of it.
Maybe looking at the picture will bring back memories.
Oh, yeah.
Like a flashback.
Oh, I forgot about this place.
True.
Here's a picture of the Crown Burgers.
Oh.
Nope.
Nope.
Do not know.
I do not know.
But like what he said, a lot of bacon.
Lots and lots of bacon on top.
Not like those crispy bacons, but like...
Yeah, it looks juicy.
Yeah, it's more softer bacon, right?
Yeah.
It looks good.
It looks good.
It looks really nice.
Yeah.
So I guess this is the dipping sauce that he was talking about.
This ketchup, mayonnaise, mustard-y sauce.
Yeah, I mean, it looks awesome.
I would love to try it.
I would love to.
It looks like pastrami beef-ish.
I get it.
It's red.
Absolutely.
Absolutely.
Yeah.
Wow.
Crown Burgers.
Well, it looks good.
Yeah.
I would love to try it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Wow.
It looks so good.
But I've never heard of it.
Never tried that before.
ホストファミリーの健康
Was your host family healthy?
I think so.
Yeah, my host mom, she always went to the hospital.
She always wakes up at four or five in the morning.
And she has her own exercise room, which she has like tons of dumbbells.
Okay.
And like machines and things like that.
Wow.
That's amazing.
Yeah, every morning she did like, you know, these kind of exercises.
And the cardio and weights.
That's amazing.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
So I think the whole family relatively like...
Healthier.
Healthier.
If you think about the standard of the United States.
ユタ州の食文化
The standard American.
Right.
It's, yeah.
They are like, everybody was like slim.
Slim.
Yeah.
Oh, but fit.
Yeah.
So...
Compared to average Japanese, would you say their family was?
Well, yeah.
Still, yes.
Still?
Yeah.
Like, okay.
Yeah.
Oh.
Especially the host mother.
She was like even like...
Like muscular?
Yeah, a little bit muscular and like so fit.
Wow, that's amazing.
Yeah, yeah.
That's amazing.
Yeah, so...
That's why maybe we didn't...
I don't remember we went to any hamburger shops.
Like fast food?
No.
No fast food?
Wow.
I remember we went to a restaurant.
Steak restaurant.
Like a diner?
Yeah, yeah.
Looks a little bit like hamburger shop for lunch.
It's like a deep ice, you know, the bones.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
T-bones and things.
But that's the only one we went to.
Like those restaurant outside.
Okay.
Yeah.
We eat at house.
You know, corns, potatoes and meat.
You know those things?
Yeah.
Yeah.
We had a garden at the backyard.
Okay.
And they grow a corn a little bit.
Wow.
Not the big one.
Just like this size.
Oh, okay.
Garden.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Okay, sure.
Some kind of green beans.
Okay.
And then they picked up and eat those things.
So I think they were pretty healthy outside.
Utah is also known for sodas, right?
They drink a lot of sodas because caffeine is not allowed.
Right.
Like the religion that they're in.
Yes.
Right?
Do you guys, do you remember going to soda places?
No.
Milk.
Y'all drink a lot of milk.
Yes.
That's what I remember.
Every day, whole time, milk.
Were you lactose intolerant then?
At that moment, no.
Do you think that was the reason why you got lactose intolerant?
I don't know.
Yeah, so during one month, I've been drinking tons of milk every day, every meal.
And after returning to Japan, I was that mood.
To drink a lot of milk?
Yes.
Because your body was adjusted to that.
Yes.
I remember when I was in junior high, I consumed a bottle of milk every day.
Oh, shit.
And that's why I'm this lactose intolerant.
I see.
I see.
飲食文化の違い
That must be the reason.
Yeah.
So not many sodas.
I don't remember soda.
We didn't go to soda places.
Y'all were a milk family.
Yeah, milk family, I guess.
Oh, I see.
I see.
That's true.
We didn't have any coffee.
We didn't have any of those.
No alcohols.
How about sugar?
Did you guys eat a lot of sugar?
Yeah.
Yeah?
Yeah.
But I think if you compare to the standard United States sugar amounts, way less than that.
Okay.
We didn't have any sugary things every day.
Of course, we had sometimes, you know, got a cake, got a jello.
Jello.
Yeah.
Right, right, right.
But not every day.
Not every day.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
Right.
Yeah.
家族の集まりと特別なイベント
I remember we gathered for the grandma's birthday or something.
Like whole groups of family gathered in the mountainside.
Okay.
Like almost 100 people.
What?
Yeah.
Gathered and held a big party.
What?
Okay.
Yeah.
We had a stage.
Stage?
Yeah.
We had a food kind of truck came.
So it's like an event.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's like a public event almost.
Right.
And we did a talent show kind of things.
Oh, okay.
The children did a little things.
Yeah.
I did it too.
Yeah.
And they served a little like a bison burgers or like bison things or like pulled pork things and everything.
Yeah.
True.
We didn't have any alcohol but sodas.
Sodas, yeah.
Yeah, we had, I remember Coke kind of things.
Yeah.
Coke Sprite.
Yeah, Sprite.
And 7-Up.
Yeah, 7-Up.
Dr. Pepper.
Dr. Pepper, yes, yes.
And those things.
But we didn't have, I don't think there were any alcohol things like that but through sodas.
Yeah.
Not through sodas.
Yeah.
Interesting.
Yeah, interesting.
It's a little, has our own special culture.
Yeah, but I would love to try the ground burger.
Yeah, yeah.
It looks delicious.
