Everyone must have seen or heard of "Pocky" biscuit before. Surprisingly, it is actually sold at Target in Bay Area (ethnic food aisle section). You can also find this snack very easily at many small Asian supermarkets around the country.
When I was little, I ate these quite often as afternoon snack. I like plain chocolate flavor. Other flavor - meh. The correct way (in my opinion) to eat these is to bite about 0.3mm (0.01inch?) fast and sequentially - crunch crunch crunch. I used to compete with my classmates to see who can eat faster!
There are many kind of Pocky flavor and many types of Pocky in Japan. Today, I'd like to introduce you a double dip version - Pocky ダブル禁断の二度がけチョコ (it reads "double kindan no nidogake choco"). It also translates to "forbidden double dip chocolate".
As you can see from the package that my daughter is holding, the chocolate part is quite thick (it claims to have 3.2 times more chocolate than the original version). It is also shorter than the regular Pocky. I tried strawberry flavor because that's my daughter's favorite but it also has cocoa flavor. Chocolate part is also very creamy and softer compared to the original version.
It is very tasty but this box only comes with 4 sticks x 3 packs. I can easily finish the whole box in one go!
Anyhow, if you are curious, check it out. Enjoy and you are welcome!
