One of the most popular Japanese snack food candy treats started out as Chocoteck in 1965. Japanese teens loved the chocolate-covered thin cookie stick. The name eventually changed to reflect the Japanese word pokkin, which describes the sound the snack makes when you take a bite. Other flavors followed through the years; almond and strawberry, for example. Pocky is now shipped to other Asian countries as well as to Europe and the United States. Still popular in its native Japan, Pocky is even served in glasses of ice water in Japanese nightclubs and bars.
Japanese love their snack foods but unlike much of the western world chocolate is not one of the major sellers, other than Pocky which is very popular, it’s a long straw like pretzel with chocolate or other coatings including different flavours and nuts there is even a few savoury flavours including pumpkin, pizza and sweet potato, and there are special seasonal varieties produced. It is estimated that Glico the manufacturers sell over 30 billion Yen of Pocky in Japan each year.
