Who's had Pocky before? I am curious what your input is on the tasty treat I think this picture shows every type of Pocky ever made. So share your story with us

POCKYPOCKYPOCKY!!!!!!

The black sesame was my fav.

I've had pocky.

The normal kind.

It's rather awesome. I like it.

Pocky is good if you eat a few. But don't try to eat the whole box all at once. Talk about a tummy ache.

Chocolate and Strawberry Pocky rocks!

At once as in 'In one sitting'?

Or at once as in stuffing your face?

In one sitting.

I bought a box and kept eating one after the other. Tasted so good.

But I ended up getting a tummy ache.

I think you are just too old for that kind of thing, Fig

You got a Wal-Mart? Look anywhere that sells groceries. If they have a section for Asian food, it'll be there.

Only types I've tried are the strawberry and the chocolate. They were both good.

That is the most Pocky I have ever seen! I have only had strawberry pocky, but I loved it!

I didn't even know there was strawberry pocky *Walks away with a new, but utterly useless tidbit of iformation*

u r not alone....

Pocky: Werewolf food.

I've only had the original one, but its pretty good....werewolf feed

Aigh, people! I'm on a diet, I can't have sugar!!

I have, however, tried something similar, from Trader Joe's. It's peppermint sticks dipped in chocolate. Soooo good...

Shouldn't this be in "Feed The Beast"?

Chocolate and almond pocky - but it's expensive.

I love me some Pocky!

Probably...


I've only eaten Pocky once or twice. I like it...but it really doesn't taste all that unique to me. There are better Chocolate, candy, and other flavor covered crunchy snacks out there.


...but they are fun to eat just for the novelty of being foreign. Given the choice between a package of Pocky with all it's labels written in english, and another with labels in asian/japanise characters I can not understand, I would take the mystery pack (not really knowing what flavor it actually is even) since the novelty of it would really be the only reason I am buying it in the first place.

It's been an A-Kon tradition to have some of the stuff, particularly in the past few years. It spread like wildfire at the beginning of the decade. It sometimes substitutes for food, though it's not a good idea to rely too heavily on it for nutrition too long. It's almost impossible now to go to A-Kon without having some left-over Pocky or at least an empty Pocky wrapper somehow ending up among your stuff.

Pocky is essentially a stick of cracker dipped in a flavoured coating.
It's really not that hard to make, either. Really skinny breadsticks dipped in whatever flavour you like.
I think you can even get the ingredients in just about any market; and it's easy to find Pretzel reciepes for the dough...
Hmmm: Jalapeno and Cheese "Pocky"!

Never had it but I think I'll try it someday
