I've always loved pocky since i was little, and i've just been wondering...

what does the manga community think of pocky..
and just what does pocky have to do with manga... @_@;

oh ya, personally my favourite pocky is strawberry ^__^
(stares at empty boxes... wish i had more..)

Great, I'll just go eat some pelmeni/pyrozhki/blyni, slit my wrists and die with my face in a bowl of borsch.

i love chocolate coconut =D

ever buy these at conventions and such? they sell them for like up to 5$ CAN for a normal pack in conventions, when you can just go down to a china-town or any asian store and buy it for a bit over a dollar for normal ones xD

omg! $5??

TT____TT

okay so pocky isn't totally cheap anywhere but still...

wah... 5... dollars.... plus tax too right? shocking

________________

yup, no lie, they can go for up to 5$, maybe tax included, but still, that's a lot even w/o tax. And people actually buy it too lol

omg.. but its such a rip off..... .... *inner turmoil*.. i'm frugal..

lol.. but hey.. some one's making money somewhere... >_>

First of all,
wtf is pocky??!!!!?!?!?!

second

maybe you should add a sloika for desert before the borsch

5$ CAN = $5.6 AUS.
woah, I thought it would cheaper in Canada compared to Australia. I get mine for $4
stick one packet of pocky in the freezer, then take it out later. and bam!, you have the best desert in the world.

For shame jesus... for shame!! Pocky's are a blend of pretzels sticks & chocolate coating (but there are other coatings ie strawberry, vanilla), and are the unofficial snacks of anime/manga lovers everywhere

Anyways, truthfully, ever since i was a child, pocky's were plentiful, and to me it seemed more like the "poor man'"'s dessert because they were everywhere (well in every asian gorcery store anyways) and you could buy plenty for cheap. But ever since anime and such started becoming bigger worldwide, all of a sudden everyone knows it and considers it amazing lol. This kinda reminds me of the pizza once being a poor man's dinner, then becoming big.

pizza was poor man's food? that must of been like 50 years ago.

Strawberry pocky rocks!

I'm biased towards almonds, but strawberry is definitely the default one.

The giant pocky are rather scary though

Way way longer man, a couple hundred years maybe? i rmber seeing it on an educational cartoon show.
