Here's my fave Pocky memory: sitting on a bus in Chicago, opening a pack of strawberry Pocky, selecting a stick like I'm a three-packs-a-day smoker about to go cold turkey, and then crunching thoughtfully while staring out the window (repeating this process until the Pocky is gone, of course!) It sounds silly, but to me, this is the magic of Pocky.freakyfriteshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11849509797502704715noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22684630.post-1162936169862119672006-11-07T13:49:00.000-08:002006-11-07T13:49:00.000-08:00Great post Pinkberry... ooh now that's an idea... ...Great post Pinkberry... ooh now that's an idea... frozen pinkberry pocky combination. i think if fiore/pb offered broken up pocky in their yogurt, it'll revive the whole trend. i grew up eating chocolate pocky b/c that was the only flavor chinese markets had. it was until i went to japanese markets, that i saw variety... melon, strawberry, etc. see you guys this weekend???e d b mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00188768496767540955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22684630.post-1162847866493300332006-11-06T13:17:00.000-08:002006-11-06T13:17:00.000-08:00What a fun idea!

Good times.<BR/><BR/>Gentleman's Pocky followed by the Strawberry Pocky with the bits of strawberry. Definitely not a fan of Giant Pocky. The chocolate to cookie ratio is all effed up there.<BR/><BR/>Morning Musume is wrong on so many levels, yet I can't seem to turn away...<BR/><BR/>- ChubbypandaChubbypandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12930326230203564199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22684630.post-1162779364878461042006-11-05T18:16:00.000-08:002006-11-05T18:16:00.000-08:00You've started a Pocky madness!!!

The pink pockies caught my eye, and he promptly purchased a box and promised it would change my life.<BR/>I fell in love!<BR/>With the pocky, not the boy. So he was right!<BR/><BR/>Happy pocky parties :)<BR/>poetpockyPoetKittyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10612645851537435888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22684630.post-1162752931580412372006-11-05T10:55:00.000-08:002006-11-05T10:55:00.000-08:00I am a traditionalist.

Not into the pink...sometimes I like me a box of Pretz.<BR/><BR/>Those commercials are amazing. What in the world did we do before YouTube?

(a popular japanese pop troupe known for frequent member roster changes -- and for having around 10 singers at any given time.)<BR/><BR/>My favorite pocky is definitely the almond crush ones (with the dark "Men's Pocky" as a closer runner-up)-- and I totally don't get the Pocky "Decor" (the one with piles and piles of artificial flavored frosting on top) -- blargh!<BR/><BR/>but thanks for the reminder -- something for me to keep in mind of when I'm in little tokyo tomorrow ;)H.
