HUGE food portions! (Video)

    Let’s say you’re making a Japanese TV show about restaurants that serve huge portions of food at really cheap prices. You’ve got a Japanese woman hosting your show, but she’s obviously not going to ruin her figure by eating a 3 kilogram bowl of curry and rice. What do you do? Well, you have her “call her poor friends” who would be interested in such a restaurant. Who are her “poor friends”?

    Two black foreigners the crew met in Roppongi yesterday, of course! Here’s the video:

    After each of them “eat” a 3kg bowl of curry and rice(the video cuts and doesn’t actually show them eat it all), they’re still hungry! So they each have another 3kg portion of food(or so the editing makes us believe), and they are still hungry! Unfortunately, they are unable to finish their third dishes. Even after eating over 6 kilograms of food, the bill came to less than 2000 yen: it is a perfect restaurant for African foreigners, who are poor and able to eat portions the tiny Japanese can only dream of consuming in a single sitting.

    Interestingly enough, the program lists their occupation as freeters, which means they lack full time employment. Perhaps it is really the case, or perhaps it is meant to add to their image of being poor. Also, the Nigerian guy merely parrots exactly what the Jamaican guy says, what’s the deal with that?
