Title: Down with pocky!!!
Post by: JTchinoy on May 05, 2008, 10:35:47 PM
My state of grievances:

Being a Filipino, I grew up going to the local Filipino market to get groceries with my mom.  In that market there were all sorts of cool imported candies, pocky NOT being one of them.  But I didn't care, because there was an oh so better snack that has since then been neglected.  I grew up on a wonderful snack called Yan-Yans.  Oh I had no idea what pocky was, but I damn well knew every Filipino kid of the day grew up with Yan-Yans and those tiny jello cups.

Some of you may wonder "WTF is Yan-Yans?"
This is Yan-Yans!!

It outdoes pocky in every damn way except not being LAZY friendly!
It isn't the national otaku food, the dip is still creamy so the taste is richer, and I love it!

So from here on out, I am declaring an anti-pocky movement!!

DO NOT WANT

My allies and I will be armed with yan-yans at fanime!! Otakus beware!!

.........OMG.
I'm not a Filipino or anything.... But I know these!
Yes I grew up with them too, I prefer the chocolate flavor though. xD
And yes, they are better than Pocky. >.>;
Maybe that's because I had too much and got bored of Pocky.

I grew up with both Yan Yan and Pocky. I rarely eat either, now, because they all taste like cheap biscuits, but I will be in the mood for it once in a while. Sometimes Yan Yan's cream is too rich, so I'd rather have Pocky (especially since the variety in flavor is wider, eg mango mousse.) or when I feel like having more cream, then I'll get Yan Yan. But if the store has something better, then... I'd probably just get that, instead of deciding between the two.

No such thing as too creamy!! :P
I ate Yan Yans for 13 years regularly and I'm still not sick of the creamy texture. <3
And getting anything besides pocky or Yan Yans becomes a apples to oranges comparison and thus irrelevant to this movement. :)

Yes, I'll probably pay for a box of pocky.  First we throw the pocky away in front of pocky lovers, then we curb stomp the box.  ;)

Hello Panda also beats Pocky, any day. Yeah you can watch, but if I get mobbed, then it's your fault. o_o

ANDDDD!!

I totally forgot what I was going to say. o_o Damnit. Oh, yeah, Yan-yans DO have those animal riddles on them. Some funny shit on their sticks... like... "Giraffe: Long Neck" and I think they typo'ed on certain things. Elephunt.

chocolate pocky is nasty, but some of the specialty flavors are fantastic!  Blueberry anyone?

yan-yan is made of childhood win.

did anyone else ever eat bland sticks, leaving one behind for a single, ultra-iced stick of messy mouth-orgasm-inducing awesome-ness?

cuz that's what i'd do. or sometimes, if i'm feeling adventurous (and slightly kinky), i'd eat all the sticks and just finger my tongue with pure icing. GOOOOOD night, if that didn't teach me the meaning of "sugar high", it's just not in my vocabulary. :o

Totally did.

But uh, yeah. I really love those straw-like cookies, especially the ones with strawberry filling. These are superior in quality and taste in comparison to both Pocky and Yan Yan. SUPERIOR. But Yan Yan and Pocky are parts of the typical Asian childhood, forever remembered as a cheap cookie. But hey, there are tons of nostalgic snacks out there.

Like those Haw Flake thingies, you know, came in tiny packs with coin-like pieces made from compressed hawthorn.

I know straight ahead what you mean by 'those tiny jello cups'! I grew up with both Yan-Yan and those together. Pocky is overrated. Otakus like...orgasm over it or something. "OMFG POCKY! LULZ. POCKY RUULLEZ" x3 Especially the original chocolate one. I don't see what's so special about it. Persnally, I think it's bitter. >.o with it being dark chocolate and all.

Oh I had no idea what pocky was, but I damn well knew every Filipino kid of the day grew up with Yan-Yans and those tiny jello cups.

I know straight ahead what you mean by 'those tiny jello cups'! I grew up with both Yan-Yan and those together. Pocky is overrated. Otakus like...orgasm over it or something. "OMFG POCKY! LULZ. POCKY RUULLEZ" x3 Especially the original chocolate one. I don't see what's so special about it. Persnally, I think it's bitter. >.o with it being dark chocolate and all.

We should stick to vegetables! xD

That's the thing. There ISN'T anything special about it.

Most Asian kids have had those tiny lychee jello cups. A lot of them grew up with both Pocky and Yan Yan. Both are okay snacks, both are overrated. Don't speak for Otaku when you say that they orgasm over the mention of Pocky-- there are tons of weeaboos that treat ANYTHING Asian and/or specifically Japanese the same way.

Pocky isn't bad. It's a cheap snack. I liked it as a kid, along with a shitload of other Glico and Meiji snacks and candies. The only reason people love or are against it is because it's a mainstream Asian snack advertised in America via anime. Liking it or hating doesn't make anyone cooler. It's just following a trend, then being against a trend after they get over it, assuming it's still trendy.

What about ramen? Those so-called otaku are all over that, amirite? There's good ramen, bad ramen, of which many of them can't even tell the difference. Ramen doesn't suck. It's not "otaku-food". They're noodles. It's food. You like them because they're tasty, not because you saw it on Naruto and think it'll make you cooler than everyone else.

Blah blah blah... if you don't like dark chocolate because it's bitter, maybe you shouldn't have chose dark chocolate? It's SUPPOSED to be bitter.

A bit off topic, but...

I honestly can't touch ramen anymore.

You know those foods that your parents fed you all the time when you were a baby (not Gerber brand mushy gunk, actual food in a form you can identify) and you'd scarf it down not knowing any better? For me, it's ramen. I can't even look at a bowl of the stuff without having to turn my head away for air.

Back on topic...

JT, these pastillas, JT - OMG. OMG, JT, these pastillas. When I first had these, I thought they were going to be identical to White Rabbit or something. Pastillas put WR to freakin' shame. Sugary AND milky textures in the same damn package? Yes.

not unless youre a bee.


pocky's okay...

you are all wrong, though.  eff yan-yans... this is america. and in america, we support the girl scouts. 

part of that means eating thin mints, aka CRACK-COCAINE.

chocolate, mint, and apparently some sort of instananiously addicting substance combines to create the thin-mint, the emperor of snack foods, the vanguard of the girl scout cavalry.

none can defeat it.  none.

see, folks, this is uhmerica.  and in uhmerica, we have girl scouts, parallel to the boy scouts, most american of things.

so put down the pocky. put down the yan yans. 

eat thin mints if you love america.  or the terrorists win. do you want the terrorists to win?


and you know what? if you dont like our thin mints, maybe you can go back to yanyanistan.
Great! A neo-con.  Listen up.  when I can go to the store and buy Girl Scout Cookies any day of the year, then we'll talk!  Meanwhile, I'm just going to run over to Stater Brothers and get me some Pocky!  ;D

evidently, mr. commie-pinko-terrorist, you have not read your homeland security terrorism preparedness guide.  right under duct tape and plastic sheeting is "one months supply of girl scout cookies' thin mints." that should not include your regular supply.

What are girl scout cookies? o_O
Compacted dirt that little girls try to scam you into buying.

You lie, sir.  I hope you are happy that bin laden is smiling at that comment.

...they are delicious, delicious sir, and that "scam" you talk about is the free market... if you dont like that, comrade, why dont you move back to mother russia, where you can eat all the yanyans and vodka you have the patience to stand in line for!
Considering the U.S decided to take us from the spanish and make us their little port station for trades in Asia, I'll gladly sid with Bin Laden if he kills your uhmerican cookies.  Yes they let us go, but they still put us under their rule first.  *burns uhmerican compacted dirt (aka cookie)*

Dem panduh kookehs wit the creme in 'em iz teh shizz.

I love those cookies. With a passion. As far as Yan-yans and Pocky go... It depends on the person, in my opinion.

Personally, I like Yan-yans over Pocky because there more filling. Pocky is made for skinny peoples on diets >_> I could eat like five of those sticks and still want mooorez.

Well, er... ALL snacks depend on the person, really. I don't think they designed either to be filling, though. Both of which are already sugary enough as it is, so I wouldn't see it on a skinny person's diet.

Girl Scout cookies... are awesome. What's wrong with you people.

Don't answer the last bit.

Eh, Pocky is tasty enough, but it isn't the OMGBESTSNACKEVAR or anything. It isn't all that great.


But neither are Yan-Yans, I think. XD;; Is this about the time I should be fleeing the angry mob?
