November 11th (11-11) is Pocky Day. The event is held on November 11th as the date (11-11) resembles four sticks of Pocky. Some of you are asking what is Pocky. Pocky is a Japanese biscuit stick usually coated in chocolate. There are many different flavours of Pocky in Japan including almond, strawberry, milk, chocolate mousse, green tea, honey and banana.

What happens on Pocky Day?
You are supposed to eat lots of Pocky on this day. I have already lined up several different types of Pocky including a few brand new ones to celebrate.
Here is a sample of what is on the menu for Japan Australia’s Pocky Day
Thanks Lina, Pocky is so good unfortunately, there was none left after the family got through it all. There is always next year. How did you celebrate Pocky Day?
i didnt know it was also Pocky Day :D i thought pepero day only. anyway pepero im not so familiar i just heard abt it last week only :P but on 11.11.11 i bought 2 pocky boxs ^^ tsubasa flakes and banana<3
Thanks Sixmats, The plain flavour is still the best for me as well, but the new Pocky Chocolate Custard Orange is worth a try and comes a close second :)
Thanks Maria, Pocky is so good and should be celebrated all year round :)
