In reply to Andrew Graeme Gould. That's right. In fact they do sell the pocky here. I bought a package last night to include in my Dad's Christmas parcel.

How ingenious! They must be the Korean version of Pocky, that I became quite addicted to in Japan. Love the colourful photo, too.

In reply to Marcia. My pleasure! Yes, reason #5 is a good one. Whatever the reason, retailers make the most of the day!

Well, I thought we were the leaders in making new holidays, but this one rivals some of ours! Oh, well, any reason for a party, right?

I like reason #5 but I also know how popular chocolate anything is. So do retailers.
Thanks for linking up this week, Nancie!
