Hello, everyone!

Yesterday, November 11, was “Pocky & Pretz Day.”
Pocky and Pretz are Japanese snacks.
They are thin and long, shaped like sticks.
The date “11/11” looks like sticks, so this day was chosen.

This day was created in 1999 by the snack company Glico.
It is a day to enjoy Pocky and Pretz even more.

In supermarkets and convenience stores, you can find many Pocky and Pretz.
There are basic flavors as well as seasonal limited flavors!

On November 11, people eat Pocky and Pretz and share them with friends.
Sharing Pocky is called “Share Happy.”
It is a short word from “Share Happiness.”

Everyone, let’s eat Pocky and enjoy “Share Happy”!
