Looks like one of those Pocky pretzels. Anything dipped in chocolate and covered in nuts is the ideal breakfast. Oh, oh, oh, how about doing the same thing with a rosemary and sea salt grissini! Or is that too weird?
Aran, there’s some information on actual Pocky here. It’s a Japanese snack. Interestingly, I didn’t know it was called Pocky “..after the Japanese onomatopoetic word for the sound Pocky makes when bitten”. Also, Nov 11 is apparently Pocky Day. Hmm.. maybe we should celebrate this year…
Hello,
I have been trying to find a recipe for the poky biscuit sticks and haven’t had any luck. Any way you could point me in the right dirrection.
Thanks

No way… I rarely click on posts in foodgawker but this is definitely an exception…. I practically grew up on this stuff.

Those are adorable. I haven’t had Pocky in way too long. My personal favorite was always the strawberry.
