They do. Do you have any Asian grocery stores around where you live? That's one of the most popular items at any Asian grocery store. No matter if it's Chinese, Korean, or Japanese...

 

[EscaFlowne]

duh! why didn't i think of that..... Now i gots to go roaming this weekend and look for some...actually i know where some is...thanks!!!

 

[Mayura]

that's good for you, EscaFlowne! ^^

 

[EscaFlowne]

Indeed!

 

[neptunemoon]

really hmm there is a store like that across the street I should go check it out.

 

[Carolgirl00]

I get my pocky as Cost Plus World Market. Ever heard of that place? It's so cool they have imported food/jewelry/furnishings from all over the world. >.> I feel like I'm advertising.

 

[neptunemoon]

is that like an online store?

 

[Carolgirl00]

I don't know if it's online. It might be. But it's an actual store that's in a town close to me.

 

[EscaFlowne]

oops...

 

[EscaFlowne]

I wish i was in that town.

 

[jeisan]

yeah theres a world market like 10 mins from me but then again i can get pocky from the grocery store but its expensive there and at the korean market too about 10 mins in the other direction...

 

[neptunemoon]

Oh I have a pen pal in japan. He's cool but he uses a dictionary to read what I write and sometimes I write essays lol and hes nice enough to spend two hours to read them

 

[Mayura]

how nice of him! ^^

btw, what's pocky? I know something that's called like that, but I don't think it's what you all mean...

 

[Keiichi]

Pocky is a cracker (shaped like a short stick) snack and it has a chocolate or other flavor coating over it. It's like Yan Yan, if you know what that is.

 

[jeisan]

pocky, as per the pick kirei posted in another thread:

 

[Mayura]

oh!! ... so it IS what I thought it as... I like the chocolate ones!! ^^
btw, are they really expensive?

 

[jeisan]
