FireDownBelow Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 I have never had one. I've never even heard of them until now. I might be willing to try them. Hell, I might even opick some up tomorrow if they sell them at the grocery store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LightningOBO Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 LOL, no seriously, it is not ALL that great...what turned me off was the stick itself...it tasted kind of old--the chocolate was pretty good though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What about Belgian chocolate? I've seen Pocky for sale a few times, but I passed on the chance, even though they've been recommended by every geek and their cat since the internet was invented.

You'd be surprised these days. I've seen it at places such as HEB and 7-11. Plus there are Asian markets all over the place now. mmmm pocky. http://www.glico.co.jp/pocky/cm/d05_qt.htm Crazy ass comercial. Pocky's awesome. My favorite'd have to be the chocolate-almond type. Ramune is good too. So many flavors of both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LightningOBO Posted March 16, 2006 Share Posted March 16, 2006 What about Belgian chocolate? Yup--I'm also big on Hazulnut Chocolate--Swiss and German and Nutella from Italy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newtype Posted March 16, 2006 Share Posted March 16, 2006 I pass so many Asian markets on my way to the comic book store I can find just about any pocky you can think of. Yeah, chocolate-almond type rule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lycaon Posted March 16, 2006 Share Posted March 16, 2006 Yeah, and it was overpriced. Didn't say otherwise. Just listing some places (outside of a comic book store or anime convention) where you could get some Pocky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SomethingManly Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 GIVE ME POCKY!!!!!!!!!! I once bought about 7 boxes of those that came in the mail from some asian foods place on the net. It cost me about $55. I really went crazy for those things in high school... a friend of mine hooked me onto them. I still can't believe I spent so much money on those things. LOL. When the hell di I rack up 100 posts??? I can't even remember the last 99. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MetalHeart Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 IT'S ALL ABOUT THE TOMATO PRETZ, BABY! and Men's pocky. and Yan Yan! **links are to pics yummy!** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SomethingManly Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 NO WAY, Tomato Prez is wannabe Pocky. It's pocky on the backburner... you shall all bow down to the power of POCKY!!! POCKYYY!! GO WHITE MOUSSE POCKY!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lycaon Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 Yan Yan is good but it's not really pocky (I don't think it's even the same company :P). As for real pocky, nothing beats Almond Crush Chocolate Pocky. That stuff's awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SomethingManly Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 I always thought that men's pocky was too dark... Almond Crunch also rocks... anyone ever try Shrimp Flavored Chips They don't sound too appetitizing, or look it... BUT THEY ROCK! Those Japanese sure now how to turn anything into junk food.

MetalHeart Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 Yan Yan is good but it's not really pocky (I don't think it's even the same company :P). Wasn't claiming it was. and Pretz are the non-candy yumminess. Made by the same company, though. It's declicious! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
