“well, it’s a biscuit stick dipped in frosting”

I think the last time I had Pocky was mm….5 years ago? Anyway, I finally decided to buy a box and relive the Pocky moment. This was a special blueberry pocky. Tsubu Tsubu Blueberry. What’s tsubu tsubu? I’m going to guess frothy.

Of course it comes in a nice box with a specific way to open it. I love it when my box tells me how to open him. It leaves nothing to the imagination!

There were originally…four…packets…but uh…three of them mysteriously decided to disappear.

The plastic wrap was semi translucent with cute blueberries around it. When you open the wrapping, you can reeeeeally smell the blueberry. It was reeeeally good. They need to make pocky in huge buckets or something. Each stick is gobbled up in about .5 a second. I suppose this really teaches me to savor everything. I have a feeling I’m going to lose a lot of weight if I go to Japan.

I picked this up because it was on sale and it’s ume flavored! Plum….mmmm.

Little specs of the ume. This chip was…weird to taste. It was like…salty…sour…if it didn’t look like a chip I would think it was barf. But because it was a chip, it was acceptable? I know that sounds really weird.

This week, I went to Mitsuwa again to eat this…and they didn’t have it anymore. Was it a limited edition? What was so special about last week? Will I never be able to experience the yummy goodness that is this bowl? /cry At least I got to eat it two times…

1/3 of the package is 6g of fat, 140mg of sodium (pretty good I think), and 2% Calcium, woohoo!

There are little colored transparent balls in the liquid that float around. So cute! What is it made out of? I almost want to fish them out but I don’t want to ruin their habitat! There may be a specific balance of chemicals that I don’t want to disrupt <: (.

I also got something I’ve had my eye on for awhile.

Mikan-chan. Lip cream! The label seems to say there is collagen in it “Koraagen”. oOooo. The reason why I got this is because it’s shaped in a cute little mikan! Kind of like the little Cuties clementines you see at the market, or manderin oranges. And it smells sooooooooo good. I wish I could waft some of this smell onto the internet. They have these in a bigger size for hand lotion as well.

You can smell it once you open it. MmmmM! Imagine this in your purse…eee! > <. Totally a summer must-have for me. They have a red apple one…and I’m sure I’ve seen another kind…I think it was peach. Peach!! Maybe I have to get that one too.

Mocchiri Fucchyo and Shyowa Fucchyo. Or is it Futsuchyo? I can’t tell if the tsu is silent because I have no idea what it means. <: P They are like the popular “hi-chews”, but with tiny gummies inside, and bits of fruit. The soda one has gummy and soda bits that burst in your mouth with carbonation. Very yum.

Tappuri Ichigo & Pafu. Something strawberry and puff. And then it says “chocolate” on the bottom. This is really good and as they say in Chinese…”hen shang!” very fragrant. But in Chinese, it’s a little less about the smell, but it means it’s strong in a good way. The strawberry flavor is potent to a point where it’s a little bit sour and it has crunch bits in it, as well as strawberry bits. These chocolates are individually wrapped, of course, for optimum high quality experience. <: P

Aporo, or Apollo. Howaito & Buruuberii. White & Blueberry! The milk is from Hokkaido, famous for its cows and milk. This is just like the strawberry, except different shape, and no crunch bits. The blueberry part has a coarse texture due to the blueberry bits. So yummy too. Also individually wrapped.
