Bet you didn&#8217;t see this coming.  Me either but I have been having a chocolate cake thing all day long and then around about noon when I wrote the date I said to myself, &#8220;11-11?  Hey!  That&#8217;s Pocky Day!&#8221; So of course I had to stop by My Second Favorite Asian Grocery Store and pick up some Pocky.  <\/p>\n<p>I still have no chocolate cake but Tiramisu Dessert Pocky is doing a pretty good job filling the cake gap.  First off, it&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/quirkspace.com\/jsfr\/?p=605\">Dessert Pocky<\/a> so it has double the delicious Pocky goo.  The stick is dipped once in a sweet, creamy white chocolate-esque goo and then drizzled with a coffeelicious quasi-dark chocolate goo.  I thought there may be a faint chemical taste way up in the sinuses but the more of this Pocky I eat, the more I begin to doubt myself.  I asked My Favorite Guinea Pig to verify the taste and he thinks it is probably the coffee liqueur flavoring that is getting up in my sinuses.  He blames the sorbitol.<\/p>\n<p>Pea points to Glico for nailing tiramisu so nicely with this Pocky.  The flavor has all the basic tiramisu elements plus it&#8217;s Pocky so you get the tasty crunchity (vanillaish) stick.  It even smells pleasantly chocolate, creamy and coffee liqueurish.  There&#8217;s no  substitute for honest to goodness real tiramisu but if you are in a hurry or don&#8217;t want to make a mess, Dessert Pocky (tiramisu) will absolutely kibosh your nosh for a piece of tiramisu.  Or in my case, chocolate cake. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/quirkspace.com\/jsfr\/?page_id=2\">Rating<\/a> of <strong>4 wasabi peas<\/strong> out of a possible 5 wasabi peas.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[12,15,22,21],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-922","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-40-peas","category-coffee","category-pocky","category-sweet"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/quirkspace.com\/jsfr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/922","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/quirkspace.com\/jsfr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/quirkspace.com\/jsfr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/quirkspace.com\/jsfr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/quirkspace.com\/jsfr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=922"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/quirkspace.com\/jsfr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/922\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":924,"href":"https:\/\/quirkspace.com\/jsfr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/922\/revisions\/924"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/quirkspace.com\/jsfr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=922"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/quirkspace.com\/jsfr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=922"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/quirkspace.com\/jsfr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=922"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
