''Yam Roll'' is a series of 3-minute and 11-minute animated shorts chronicling, as the long title suggests, ''The Very Good Adventures of Yam Roll in Happy Kingdom''.

Happy Kingdom is a generally peaceful place inhabited by [[AnthropomorphicFood anthropomorphic Japanese food]], and the titular Yam Roll is a well-meaning but reckless, cowboy-boot and -hat-wearing cab driver. His life can be a bit frustrating: his friends seem to cause more problems than they're worth, and the love of his life, the selfish spicy tuna roll Minamiko, barely knows that he exists. At the same time, he is gifted with seemingly limitless superpowers that permit him to fly and transform himself -- which his teacher has strictly forbidden him from using for his own gain. There's also the occasional [[{{Kaiju}} kingdom-ravaging monster]].

The shorts are still broadcast on [[Creator/{{CBC}} CBC television's]] KidsBlock on [[SaturdayMorningCartoon Saturday mornings]], and all of the episodes can be watched streaming from [[http://www.ilaugh.com/yam_roll iLaugh.com]] and [[http://www.hulu.com/yam-roll Hulu]].
