Description[]

Pocky is a tasty little snack. The thin, crispy breadsticks are partially covered in chocolate. Some Pocky is also dusted with almonds, or covered with different flavours like strawberry and vanilla! It's a small treat, but a yummy and popular one. It can even be found in most American stores nowadays.
