Is melonpan really that good? Or just a meme food to bribe weeaboos into buying overpriced stuff?

it's really bland
but girls like bland things because they have a million more tastebuds

It's not so good but not overpriced

...

...

its fine.
cheap, doesn't taste bad.
a little boring maybe but it goes well with coffee

It's like a cookie bread. It's not bad, but it's not amazing at all. It's also pretty dry. There are plenty of other great breads. I like another type of bread that's similar but I Green, is filled with an orange creme and actually tastes like lemon.

Melonpan is also super crumbly/messy.

It's alright best when combined with coffee like said. Similar to how brioche should be enjoyed.

I tried it twice. it was really good desu

...

It doesn't actually have any melon in it.

I thought it was for characters to have for lunch to demonstrate they aren't competent to care for themselves.

Food that aren't actually what they are named of usually sucks.

>Melonpan
>No Melon

>Seaweed
>No Weed

My hometown has a Japanese bakery and I bought it from there a few times. Could've been a bit less sweet but it's still good. They also had some with chocolate chips on the top which is tasty too.

!?!?!?!?

Basically half way between bread and cake. So little girls like it because they can eat cake but pretend it's a real meal.

>bribe

it's sugary crap

Its a dry, bland crumbly bread with a sugar crust and very little flavor.

It doesnt taste like melon, the melon part is in reference to how it has the crosslines like a muskmelon does. The only tasty one I ever had was tiny and filled with custard.

Nopan >>>>> Melonpan

>red bean paste sounds really disgusting
>it's actually pretty damn nice

Japanese food is weird

>It doesn't taste like melon

This one does

Anko isn't in melonpan, dude. That being said, I didn't like it so much at first but recently I love mochi with anko in it.

You better not give it as a Christmas present.

Pineapple-pan is better

It's too sweet and buttery.

This guy has the right idea

I know someone who would like melonpan for christmas

Well, better than Yakisoba Pan

is that why they like the taste of dick?

Who was in the wrong here?

>he doesnt like dick

don't you remember being in middle/high school and buying whatever the least shitty thing in the cafeteria was even though it was still kinda bad, and wishing your parents loved you enough to pack you a homemade lunch?

I ate the sandwiches my mother made.

I-I wouldn't know user

This breaks my heart.

they taste better in mexico with a hot chocolate

Why don't you fly to Japan, buy one at a convenience store and go to the next Japanese school and acting like you eat it as lunch.

What the fuck user.
GO out now!
Get out there and suck some dick right now, and don't come back until you do.

I don't wanna be a bitch boy!

It's just a sweet bread. Though it's also Japanese so reduce the sweetness by like 50% from what everyone else would consider sweet. There, you have melonpan. Honestly Pineapple bread is better just because it's more sweet. They're both really dry crumbly buns though

>reduce the sweetness by like 50%
i wish amerifats adopted this practice for their foods

It's either really bland and bad (most processed food, not all though) OR really good.
I fucking love home-made red bean paste

Enjoy your corn syrup, Apollo

It is good. Tastes like melon.

>bribe weeaboos into buying overpriced stuff?
Mind that what you said only applies to the West.

Just go to a mexican bakery and ask for a concha. same except it might be sweeter than melon pan

>Or just a meme food to bribe weeaboos into buying overpriced stuff?
Don't get so full of yourself, you self-absorbed buta gaijin.

Nippon doesn't recognize your existence.

I always wondered if melonpan was the same as a concha. It's kinda weird how many similarities the japs and the beans have.

You guys think a concha/traditional mexican sweet bread business would be a success in japan?

my fellow taco user

Shieldtaco

Is this chinese pineapple bun? definitely superior and very similar to melonpan

I feel like the nips might like salpora de arroz.

Pan dulce with some cinnamon in it and a coffee is the best

im gonna open a taco bakery in japan

I think so. I've honestly thought about going to Japan and opening up a Mexican restaurant with a bakery on the side.

anything meat-based would be a hella lot pricier.

it's basically what happens when you cross a light pastry with bread. it's surprisingly eadible if DRY and weirdly bland (you can taste the "sweet" but it's barely sweet to taste, it's sorta irritating because it seems to be barely sweet enough to call it sweet, you're almost tempted to think you're imagining it)

Overall the bread itself is stunning tasteless (all the flavor comes from the crust/outside), so tasteless it almost tastes like a mouthful of flower.

Dunno, how expensive would pastor pork be?

the meat of the pork would be a bit costly and all the spices that make up the adobo arent native to japan so it'd be VERY costly.

Fucking Arroz con Leche will be a hit
Yeah but isn't Japan renowned for their meats. The cost might be worth it for some good carne asada or al pastor.

Is that really a slice of pineapple? It looks like someone through a thick slice of cheese into a sweet bread

I'm partial to shimapan and moropan myself

Okay so we know what food to serve but now we gotta figure out how to draw in the otakus.
What is some cute/sexy mexican girl clothing for our girls?
bonus points if there is easy access

It's cheap and doesn't really taste like you'd imagine melon flavoured bread would taste like. Think of it more like a bit of sugar with a hint of melon soda on top of bread. Some bakeries actually have better tasting ones but you have to look for them unfortunately.

china poblana?

Are there any spic dishes that would be a guy hit in Japan? Only thing I can think of right now is sweet tamales

How cheap is corn in japan?

Is that like corn tamale's?
Pupusas might be a hit or those fucking huge tortas

I've had it. It's just a bland slightly sweet bread.

>corn tamales
tamales are mainly made of corn y'know?

the mc of el cazador de la bruja
>Fucking Arroz con Leche will be a hit
that shit is delicious

I'm gonna ask for la concha de tu hermana.

Japanese bread in general is fucking trash. It's really sugary and bland.

I meant the ones that are straight corn

Tasted it once. Was not impressed.

It's definitely a meme food, but it's the fact it's cheap that makes it popular.

>Arroz con Leche
I've met so many americans who die for this shit and I don't really understand why.

I tasted it once, made by someone who knows their shit. Something about the soft milky cinnamon flavor really grinds the taste buds.
Not too sweet and not too bland.

you're not too sweet and not too bland yourself...

Are you hitting on me?

maybe i am... but i wanted to bump the thread somehow.

Don't play with my feelings!
b-baka

sorry... how are you doing today

in my country that sweet bun are called Concha and are super cheap, in japan are expensive because individual packing.

You can't fool me anymore
I'm going to learn how to speak spanish and figure out how to make arroz con leche

i feel dejected...
Noble goal, though you dont need spanish for that. And belive me that once you go english you'll be fed up with people using spanish incorrectly

Not my favorite pan, but it's good. Also, in Japan it's cheap.

superior

why is it called melon bread then?
what does it taste like?

Japanese baked goods suck pretty bad compared to other cultures baked goods, even US/America. Best baked goods - by far- are French, even though stating as much is a meme.

France > Italy >Spain/Sweden > US > Everywhere else > UK=Japan ... they are different kinds of bad. I've never had Chinese or Korean baked goods so don't know where they rate.

Now almost anything to do with either fish or rice (cooked or otherwise) or even arguably noodles? - The US can just stay home.

Cream Puffs/Choux a la Creme/Profiteroles > *

Why exactly in Mexico
it can be appreciated with hot chocolate anywhere

It's a slice of butter.
The bread is prepared like that right out the oven and the butter is supposed to melt from residual heat. Authentic bakeries would announce when they are going to put these out during the day and people snatch em' while it's hot. The appeal is to taste the hot bun and the cool, melted butter at the same time.

This. You, my user, are truly my nigger.

Cooking with Dog said it was a roll wrapped in a sugar cookie.

It sounds great.

Go to your local mexican bakery and get either concha or pan dulce, whatever they call it. Its the same thing

mexican breads tastes a million times better than melonpan

like all baked goods, it depends on the bakery
personally there's a bakery down the street from my workplace that does good melon pan

Mexicans eat they same shit, but they call it la concha. It's not very good.
