Once-a-Day Bean Factoid. Can a bunny who knows Japanese tell us WTF this is all about?[More:]

Apparently this is a transcript, but I still don't know what it's an ad for, unless it's... McDonald's?

1.
(Caption) Mame-shiba
[Bean-"shiba"; not sure what "shiba" means. Maybe an abbrev. of "(theatrical) play".]

(Caption) Nattou-shiba [Nattou is fermented beans.]
(Bean) Good morning!
(Lady) What?!
(Bean) 200 million bacteria live (lit. 'come and go') in a kangaroo's pouch.
(Singing) Once-a-day Bean Factoid.
(Text) [Same as what bean and singing said.]

2.
(Caption) Mame-shiba
(Curtain) Bar (lit. ‘alcohol’)
(Old Man) Huh?
(Caption) Edamame-shiba
(Edamame) Hey, did you know?
(Old Man) What is it??
(Edamame) They say France’s dandelions are really stinky.
(Old Man) I’m done. (lit. ‘Thanks for the tasty meal.’; traditional post-meal saying)
(Singing) Once-a-day Bean Factoid.
(Text) [Same as what edamame and singing said.]

3.
(Caption) Mame-shiba
(Boy) Time to eat! [A non-religious traditional grace.]
(Caption) Green pea-shiba.
(Pea) Ta-da!
(Pea) Hey, did you know? They say a kangaroo’s pee-pee (lit. ‘bed-wetting’) is really stinky.
(Boy) Mom…
(Singing) Once-a-day Bean Factoid.
(Text) [Same as what pea and singing said.]

Soy bean promotion. The smell com[arisons are probavly a reference to natto - which is infamously stinky.

Sorry it didn't turn out to be more exciting.

I guess I could have lied or something (~_^).

OMG what is really weird is that I not seen any of these on TV before and ONE JUST CAME ON.

Maybe because I was watching a kids anime.

Dude. It seems like the soybeans are begging not to be eaten, considering how everyone drops them in fright.

But they're such cute little soybeans!

Possibly petty and minor gripe about flickr comments || What happens when you copy the character in the link and paste it into Word?
