Japanese Pocky, where oh where can I find it!

I live in american. Theres a store I can go to that carries strawberry pocky but I really enjoy chocolate pocky and I want to try the other fun flavors! Is there a japanese site I can go to (hopefully in english) to buy pocky and japanese snacks?

Thank you.

Um.. does yesasia have snacks/food? If so, then you can go there. A few stores here in Savannah sell it (Media Play and two Hello Kitty themed stores owned by a Vietnamese family I used to go to school with some of the children of) and they have chocolate, strawberry, lime, and three to five other flavors depending on what the private stores are able to get at the time. I've got one box that was brought for me from my friend Mami when she visited, that's "Decorer Pocky" and is "Just like decorer cake on a stick!!" It's chocolate and carmel, pretty good but VERY sweet. (Too sweet for me.)

Since I live in america, my friend, do you know of a website I can go to and buy some pocky over seas?

BrennaCeDria · 7 Feb 2005

Did you read my post? I live in SAVANNAH, GEORGIA, lol. We have a MEDIA PLAY. And YesAsia is a website, you could have googled it or just typed it in with ".com" and it's not too hard to find.

Go to your local China-orientated area of your city, or closest big city.

wintersweet · 7 Feb 2005

japanesesnacks.com
jlist.com

and yeah, I think even Savannah should have a Chinese or Korean grocery store somewhere, which may have Pocky or a knockoff.

BrennaCeDria · 7 Feb 2005

We've got a few Asian grocers, but Media Play and the import shops that family I mentioned own are the best bets here for Japanese snacks of any kind. The import shop only gets Pocky, YamYam (is that what it's called?) and a bunch of other sugary things; Media Play has a bit better selection (not to mention their "anime specialist," a special title they made up since the Savannah Media Play is one of the most anime-selling MPs in the region, and all of it's pretty much due to one girl that works there) of snacks, including different pickled fruits (umeboshi, strawberries, etc). No shrimp fries, though. I have to admit that I'm not particularly hurt by the lack of shrimp fries, either.

yeah i live in a pretty small capital city, but still can find it in the asian supermarket in china town. if i can find it, anyone can find it!

i also saw some in singapore airport lol.

I do not understand the reason why you want Pocky. :?

FUTUU NO OKASI NANONI?

It is a homepage of a production company of Pocky. :bikkuri:

You're lucky. At least you have Media Play in GA. Here in Louisiana, the closest Asian grocer to me is a family owned Vietnamese shop that carries Pocky (only two flavors) and maybe two other Japanese products. I guess Asian grocers are just hard to come by in the South.

My reason, it tastes good. It's not the healthiest thing in the world, but it's delicious.

Yes, it's an ordinary sweet if you're in Japan or a highly Japanese populated area. If you're not, it's not ordinary. It's a rare sweet to come by...unless you order it from an online store.

I hadn't been to that glico site in a while. I see they have a new ichigo pocky with 50% more strawberry. Too bad I'll never find that in my area. Hmm...a new Decorer Pocky Banana Semi-Sucree (semisweet chocolate banana pocky) too. They look good. I prefer the regular ichigo pocky over the decorer though.

okaeri_man · 10 Feb 2005

mmmmm, 50% more strawberry... *drools*

If you traveled in Japan, please try to look for it.

OMG! I love pocky sticks.

I have eating a chocolate covered one, a strawberry with lots of stuff on it and it was SOOOOOOOOOOO good, and I even tried a green tea one, it was weird, but I ate it anyways.

I think pocky sticks rule.

Wanna laugh?
This Pocky CM isn't really noteworthy - but the "making of" is hilarious. I laughed my butt off...

I love POCKY...I just ordered a ton of it from J-list, and hit up my local Asian grocer's this past weekend. I got quite a stash of it going, and more on the way. Makes fun gifts!

Here's a search I used:
