This Pocky flavor is Chocolate, crushed almond bits, and then another coating of chocolate. I got a 3-pack box and each bag had 4 sticks. It’s chocolate with a crunchy texture.

While not my favorite, It’s good for the crunch.

Marble Pop – Green Apple

Green Apple Marble Pop. A Ramune-like drink

 

A soda that originates from Japan. It’s called Ramune in Japan and I guess Marble Pop in the west. This features an English label

One thing I really enjoy about Marble Pop is the variety of flavors.
This specific post is for the flavor called green apple. It’s definitely very fruity  flavored. They hit the apple flavor quite well.

Opening  these drinks involve pushing a marble ball down into a chamber in the glass bottle as seen in the image.

Winter Pocky w/ Cocoa Powder- Box art from Jbox

This Pocky is a seasonal flavor (like  Winter White), that seems to have a larger coat of chocolate but also includes a coat of cocoa powder directly on the other chocolate. I really like the play on flavors and textures here. Something I look for every Winter season. 4 packs per box.

Mint Chocolate Pocky - Box art from Amazon

I got a hold of a this flavor yesterday when I stopped by Mitsuwa Marketplace of Chicago, IL. The flavor is what I expected. The standard Chocolate Pocky flavor mixed in with refreshing taste of mint. Each box comes with 2 packs. With every bite, I initially taste the chocolate and then the mint flavor  filled my mouth. Really liked this one a lot.
