Cannibal Pocky. Hitokui Pocky! *is very proud to know what he's pretty sure is Japanese for Cannibal*

*Checks Japanese dictionary* You're right. The full word for cannibal is "Hitokuijinshu" but "jinshu" means "race." So yeah, Hitokui is "people eater."

Thank you Shonen Knife!
They did a song called "Cannibal Papaya".

Hitokui Papaya, Hitokui Papaya, Hitokui Papaya, Ooh Ah!
Hitokui Banana, Hitokui Pineappo, Hitokui Papaya, Ooh ah!

This is how I learn Japanese.
Though I do have a English to Japanese Dictionary (not the other way around) so the process is a lot faster now.

We're planning another trip to Japan in September... I'll consider putting a visit to POCKY factory on our list of "things to go see".

Well, if you're anywhere near Kobe (maybe to have some famous steak) then get as many pictures of Glicopia as possible! I will be so in your debt!

Mustash- We might as well just drive down and then we can stay the night in people's houses every night. We drive down to Eugene, then its kind of a long stretch to get to the bay area. Anybody have relatives in Redding or Chico? Maybe we could crash with Dustin in Brookings, we'd have a very scenic drive down the coast!

So we fly down to LA for AX and stay at Mr. King's house.
Somehow get a van and drive it up to the Bay Area where we visit the HQ and then stay at Mr. King's other house.
Then we drive up to Brookings and hang with Dustin.
Then we drive up the coast and in to Eugene and start dropping people off.
Then we get home to Portland and sell the van.

Brilliant! so if we start saving up we should be able to do this in 2008. Everybody schedule your next school year accordingly!

Honestly, the Pocky Road Trip I'm planning is to Eugene, or at the very most, Bend. Our Kumoricon friends over in Bend don't get much love.

Ba Ha! I just had another brillian idea! We need to get an old Ford Econoline van and paint it like a giant pocky box on its side!

We then need to take out the back seat and put in a refrigerator so we can have "chilled" pocky whenever we want!

Then Pocky Club could spread its influence to every con in the US!

Its Roadtrip time!!!

you stole my idea. I always wanted to get a moter home and add warp Nacells (Thought of this before space balls) then go from anime con to comic con to game con to etc etc etc for ever

and it looks like Bannana Rick is gonna have to get a dance belt

Someone needs to come up with the best recipe for camping with Pocky. I thought of Pocky 'Smores. Or would it be called pocky ka bob?

superjaz · « **Reply #62 on:** March 26, 2007, 04:47:27 pm »

i remeber coming up with that idea when the last volcano exploaded

:shock:

I can't believe I never thought of that. I simply MUST try that as soon as possible. I think I'll start by getting regular pocky (which would already count as the chocolate and the cracker) then dipping it in the already goopy marshmallow fluff you can buy in a jar. Once I know that flavor I can start testing a large roasted marshmallow on a giant pocky and small mallows on regular pocky.

Thank you Jaybug, I'll let you know how it turns out.

o-o I buy mine at either WinCo or the Hong Phat market by my friend's house.

Oh man, I wish I would've seen this BEFORE I went camping!!! ahhh I could just imagine me whipping out the pocky and my friends just staring at me, mouths agape, as I merrily toasted my smallows X3 Oh goodness that would be wonderful.

and @ mr_mustash: Yes and that is why we're the two biggest nerds X3

TomtheFanboy · « **Reply #67 on:** March 27, 2007, 08:50:28 pm »

I'm actually wondering what flavor of Pocky would be best with marshmallows... Hmmm....

I really can't think of anything better than chocolate.

jaybug · « **Reply #68 on:** March 27, 2007, 09:32:41 pm »

Ok, so who has tried to eat using Pocky as chopsticks? And how far did you get?

Lit_of_Fey · « **Reply #69 on:** March 27, 2007, 09:49:27 pm »

haha I got quite a few healthy bites in, but they sadly failed pretty soon after than *emotear* although I WAS eating ramen, and so the juices soaked into the pocky and made it break (and it kinda tasted yucky too :\)

jaybug · « **Reply #70 on:** March 27, 2007, 10:04:04 pm »

Now how did I know that you would at least try! :lol:

I bet fried rice wouldn't be much easier. Maybe with the BBQ pork! I bet that's a winner!

totemo_oishii · « **Reply #71 on:** March 28, 2007, 09:05:00 am »

Tom said Neko-chan tried it, but the sticks broke easily. Which is...predictable. You need some strong pocky sticks. XD

Lit_of_Fey · « **Reply #72 on:** March 28, 2007, 10:53:15 am »

or stale pocky *bleh* it's not used for much else after all X3

TomtheFanboy · « **Reply #73 on:** March 28, 2007, 11:52:58 am »

When it comes to using pocky for chopsticks they will inevitably snap. There are two possibile soultions to this.

Giant Pocky are more resilient due to their size but might be awkward since it would be like using two sharpie pens.

The only other possibility is the extra crunchy variety of Pocky that is no longer on the market. Pocky G.

Negima · « **Reply #74 on:** March 28, 2007, 10:08:42 pm »

Hmm...
The next time we meet, I must try this Pocky-chopstick challenge. I've been able to pick up pudding with chopsticks (true story) and would like to try something like that with Pocky.

jaybug · « **Reply #75 on:** March 28, 2007, 10:35:38 pm »

jell-o would be too easy wouldn't it?

Could you use pocky as candles on a birthday cake? Would you want to eat them if they did catch fire? :lol:

How about trying Pocky in a nuts and bolts mix, you know chex mix?

Lit_of_Fey · « **Reply #76 on:** March 29, 2007, 10:19:59 pm »

You would need smaller pocky. like mini pocky awwwh that'd be cute :3

Writer · « **Reply #77 on:** March 30, 2007, 10:29:31 am »

I live around Woodstock. does anyone know where I can find pocky in walking distance? I know there is some around Sellwood, but it takes me fifty minutes to walk there.

TomtheFanboy · « **Reply #78 on:** March 30, 2007, 11:50:29 am »

Where's the closest Safeway/Fred Meyer/Winco? Somebody google it!

Those will usually have the basic choco and strawberry pocky. I'd have to go drive around to find anything more exotic.

kurosakiichigo666 · « **Reply #79 on:** April 17, 2007, 10:31:57 am »

How many flavors of Pocky are there? I've only seen chocolate and strawberry...I don't get out of the house much... :roll:

TomtheFanboy · « **Reply #80 on:** April 17, 2007, 10:59:30 am »

Hee hee hee..... MWAHAHAHAHA!!!!

Ahem, there's lots of flavors. I'll get back to you with some good links after lunch.

Here's the ones I actually have at home in my Pockpile (Pocky Stockpile).

Chocolate
Giant Chocolate
Men's (Dark Chocolate)
Strawberry (cream)
Strawberry (new recipe bits)
Strawberry (old recipe bits)
Chocolate Crush (cookie bits)
Almond Crush
Mousse Light (Milk Chocolate)
Mousse Bitter (Dark Chocolate)
Mousse White (White chocolate)
Mousse Green (Green Tea)
Honey and Milk

I'm hoping that the Murasaki Pocky (Japanese Sweet Potato) will be back for a third year at the Sakurafest.

In the summertime they should be bringing Coconut back and if we're lucky, Pine Cream (Pinapple chunks). In 2005 we had the super awesome Choco-Banana for a summer treat.

pshhh you're bumping this thread becuase you started it X3

I had some cream soda ones and they were divine ^.^

DUDE I just went to Fubonn today and they had the Coconut Pocky! Woop! I also have the Tiramisu ones...I wanted to get the berry mousse one but they were sold out and I steered clear from the mango mousse cos I hate artificial mango flavor!

For Writer, wouldn't the trader Joe's in Woodstock have some Pocky?

TheInsanePuck · « **Reply #85 on:** July 03, 2007, 12:00:39 am »

do they make savory pockey?... or is it like something else cause I could have sworn when I was in tokyo I saw like pizza pockey or it was just someone else who decided to jump on the band wagon...

TomtheFanboy · « **Reply #86 on:** July 03, 2007, 08:00:12 am »

10 to 1 odds that you saw Pretz. They usually keep it on the same aisle and it's made by the same company.

Pretz is the cracker to Pocky's cookie.

If you want savory Pocky, I suggest Kurogo, AKA Black Five. It is a hearty blend of flavors including Black Soy, Black Sesame and Black Pine. It's like eating a pocky coated in a cracker. I don't mind the taste but some people don't like it, the smell is always good.
