Hello there. My name's Lewa, a new member here; nice to meet you and welcome to my rant.
I was browsing London's China Town, as I do often. I was browing the Newport Supermarket at the end of the street and spotted something my boyfriend Curin (Yeah, Curin_Paladin - member of this guild?) had mentioned. Pocky? Hey, it was cheaper than the Japanese rice crackers and I might as well give it a shot.
The resulting snack was certainly interesting... Chocolate covered breadsticks? How very novel. So novel I ran back and bought 5 more boxes! whee
Although China Town is the only place in London I can find said snack. Infuriating!! I am now on the lookout for any UK online stores which can supply me, as travelling across London is a mighty trek which I can't do everyday for lunch. Any suggestions?
/End rant.

You live in England?! Cool!
I can kind of sympathize with you, I live in the middle of Florida and I have to drive about a hour (pending on traffic) to get pocky... gonk
I don't really know of any website that sells pocky in the UK... I'll be on the look-out... But here are some recommended sites to buy pocky: *Le click*

this isn't as sad a story, but i only have access to strawberry and chocolate pocky, although they are both delish, more flavors would be good.

A local drug store, a fairly big one that sells a bit of everything, had Pocky for a while. Big boxes for cheap. It was gone in like a week haha O_O More stores should pick it up, because I think we all know it would be super popular surprised

I have the same problem, most asian stores around here only sell chocolate and maybe strawberry Pocky, with the occasional random flavor. But, I kinda like how Pocky is hard to find. It makes it a little more special. 3nodding
