Oh, but the spinning's fun!

You cannot harm me! My Pocky is like a shield of steel!

Well, it was, until I ate it all!

Is there a new catnip flavour out?! :D

Just the ordinary strawberry one! But it's great! Especially when you realise that the end of a box would just go stale overnight, so you might as well *really* cheer yourself up by eating it all at once!

Am I the only person in the world who doesn't know what Pocky is?

Well... You know those savoury snacks you can get, usually for parties or Christmas or tings? You can get pretzel-shaped ones, or long thin sticks, and they're glazed with something and sometimes have salt added?

Well, take an unseasoned version of the stick ones, and coat abotu 5" out of 6" with stuff. Strawberry flavoured stuff, in this case - it's sweet, has the texture of cheap white chocolate, and is entirely artifical :)

I've only ever found Pocky in oriental supermarkets - I'd never heard of it until I started wandering into Chinatown for lunch :)

That... doesn't really sound appealing. But I'll keep an eye out, if it's as good as everyone seems to think. ;)

Well, they aren't salted underneath the candy coating, so really they're just like cheap "chocolate" biscuits :)

And do you pronounce the proper Japanese Poo-KEY way, or the English hockey way?

From: [identity profile] puddingcat.livejournal.com
I'm afraid the English way, having seen it written before I'd heard it spoken. Also, "Poo-key" makes me think of Garfield's teddy bear rather than oriental junk food :)

Proof that physicists are here to mess with our heads. ;)

And not ashamed to admit it! Head-messing is marvellous fun :)

(At least I'm nice enough to practise on my *own* head first...)

Dont think Nelson has a Chinatown where I could find such things. Will have to come visit and steal your supply. Sounds like just the thing when I go back to school and have---ugh---K I D S to deal with.
