I know this is like already a week past but anyway, in last week's Zubari (07/26/2005)'s 「運命のカルテ」 (unmei no karute) segment, there was this reeeeally hilarious-slash-kawaii-slash-pinch-pinch eating segment. So Takki, Ueda (Shinya) and the guest had to do this "food reporter" kind of gig, as a dish or two are presented in front of them, and they had to eat and sort of "report" what it tastes like.
Anyway there are two dishes they have to "review" and one is some kind of a shrimp (ebi) and another one is sea urchin (uni) *shudder* (btw, I can never comprehend people eating sea urchin =.= coz I was traumatized once when I was little I was swimming in the ocean and I stepped on sea urchin and ended up getting my feet poured with someone else's PEE!!!! Yeah this is your cue to go "eeeewww~" XD) So whenever I see sea urchin now I'm reminded of pee so that is not quite the kind of association you want to have when you're... uh... eating! LOL!!!!
The guest seems to be doing quite fine though, but supposedly, in the end, Hosoki-sensei showed them that the most proper way to eat ebi is to hold it by the head and the tail (so that it's curled), then dip it in the sauce and then bite it off the tail and the head from the middle... whereas the guest held it in two ends, one hand holding the head and another holding the end... and Takkiーoh my lordy this Takizawa Hideaki *LOLOLOLOLOLLLLL*!!!!!!!
He was like holding only one end and kinda like dipped it into his mouth from above LOLOLOLOL~~~~~~~~~ SO KAWAIIIIII!!!! LIKE A LITTLE BOY EATING EBI!!!! XD XD XD And even spilled some soy sauce on his face tooo~~~~ YES! THAT BLACK DOT YOU SEE ON HIS FACE *IS* SOY SAUCE!!!!! XDDDD Iyaaa~~nnnn soooo cuuuteee!!! ♥♥♥♥ *screeeeches* XDDDDD
And he was all being reporter like and all too when he was reporting the "taste" and the "look"... he was saying Ah~ the color is very fresh~ *WHACKS THE FLOOR LAUGHING* BUHAHAHAHA~ XD And then he just kinda picked the shrimp up and hung it in the air and lowered it into his mouth hahaha~ *rolls laughing!* XD OHHH KAWAIII..... and the most priceless expression of all was when he went....
Mmmmm~~~~ shiawase desu! ♥

Up next is a slight glimpse/preview for us on what would a TxT FOOD FEAR FACTOR would be like... somewhat XDDD Now, I'm not really quite sure exactly what food was being served there inside that little "plastic compartment" that they had built in the Zubari studio, but I dunno, it looked sure a whole lot like SALTED FISH!!!! Hahahaha! But for some reason, it seems to be an extremelyyyyy SMELLY salted fish or something because well... there's an obvious reason why they installed that "plastic room/compartment" in the studio, and that is to fend off the smell from the audience? (Or simply just to torture Takki and Ueda? XD XD XD)
*LOL*
Notice the look on Takki's face!!!! XDDDDD That was his reaction upon entering the eating compartment... like the minute he stopped in, he just kinda froze and slowly you kinda see his face SCRUNCH into this crooked (but still kawaii nonetheless) smile!!!! And for the next few moments or so he was just sitting there with a *HOPELESS* scrunched up (again still ultimately kawaiiiiiii~) look on his face, until it was time to UNVEIL the mysterious smelly crap under the plate covers!
Now tell me that something doesn't look like SALTED FISH!? It sooo *DOES* desho? Anyway, the captions on the screen says 「大島のくさや」 in which according to my dictionary, "kusaya" is a dried mackerel or something... and I'm even more convinced that it's nothing more than just stupid salted fish!!!! But look at them go!!! The moment the kusaya was revealed, Takki and Ueda went leaping off their seats and scrambled to rush out of the teeny tiny plastic door, almost knocking the entire thing down in the process!!! ROFLOLOLOL!!! I'm now soooooooo CURIOUS!!! Like, come on, how *BAD* could the smell be??? XD
And YES!!! Takki has to do his food reporter thingy again, which also means he's gonna have to EAT the very thing he had been running away from! *LOL* But he acually took several deep breaths (in which he probably inhaled more smelly stench of the salted fish since he's sitting in that room with three plates of kusaya!!) XD and then he managed to put on a straight face and just started blabbering bullshit about the fish! XDDDD At one point after holding up the fish, he puts it down and then he SMELLS HIS OWN HAND and the look on his face was like:
*PTUUIIII!!!*
And then he actually struggled to break off the fish into a small part with his chopsticks but I dunno how or why *LOL* but suddenly his chopstick BROKE HHAHAHAHA!!!! Ohhhhh myhyy Takki Takki Takki... he looks soooo jittery and nervous the whole time, he probably was like holding his breath every other 30 seconds or so HAhahahahaha!!!
And so he finally held the fish up again for everyone to see, and *GASP* HE TOOK A BITE INTO THE SMELLY FISH!!!!!! ROFL ROFL ROFL!!!! And he was chewing for a moment there and since Takki was supposed to play a food reporter, he decides to be DIPLOMATIC by saying:
Ooo~~ I suddenly want beer desu ne ♥
See, there's one thing that I can't understand... like, how can they freak out like so for something like SALTED FISH? Unless Japan's salted fish is really hideously stinky or something but I just kinda wonder how smelly can kusaya really be? XDXDXD I mean, Takki can eat NATTOU just about anything and yet he FREAKS OUT over this leetle piece of feesh? XDDDDD You know, actually that's what crossed my mind about nattou too. I kept thinking, oh it's beans, it's gooey, how BAD can it really be?
Uhm... turns out that IT'S REALLY, REALLY REALLY REALLY... *BAD*!!!!! Seriously man, I can't eat it... it smells like rotten garbage really! XD It has this distinct bitter-fermented-sour-ROTTEN taste to it I was like, what, is this nattou ROTTEN or something? Then I realized that the phrase "rotten nattou" is sooo totally REDUNDANT *LOL!* Amazing how people don't die from food poisoning or something eating that crap! *LOL* People, take it from me... if you've never tried nattou, and the thought of *TRYING* nattou crossed your mind.... trust me, DON'T DO IT!!!! XDDD
Anyway, there's more smelly stuff in that segment that got everyone jumping and leaping and making puke noises *LOL* and I'll let you see for yourself ne~~~! kekeke!
