Pocky & Pretz Day

Nov 11, 2016 17:10
Today is Pocky & Pretz Day in Japan.

Pretz is a stick-shaped snack that has been sold since 1963 by the Japanese confectionery maker "Ezaki Glico."

Also, pocky is pretz coated with chocolate, and has been sold since 1966.

Since both snacks are long and thin, November 11 (11/11) was established as the anniversary in November 11, Heisei 11 (1999 in the western calendar).

Today, you can find campaigns or events related to these snacks in various stores.

By the way, many other companies and organizations also defined November 11 as a anniversary day.

There are about 30 different specific names, and my favorite one is "Binary Day."
ポッキー&プリッツの日

今日、11月11日はポッキー&プリッツの日です。

プリッツは日本の菓子メーカーである江崎グリコが1963年から発売している、棒状のスナック菓子です。

また、ポッキーは同社が1966年から発売している、プリッツにチョコレートをコーティングしたスナック菓子です。

どちらも細長い棒状の菓子なので、1111という数字にたとえて1999年(平成11年11月11日)にこの記念日ができました。

今日は色々なお店で、ポッキーとプリッツに関するキャンペーンが見られます。

ちなみに、その他にも多くの団体や企業が11月11日を記念日としており、その数は30にのぼります。

私のお気に入りは、バイナリデイです。

Nice article.

You could check out pretzels. I think the recipe for making Pocky and Pretzes is inspired by pretzels.

Thank you so much for the correction!
I didn't know that, but you're right according to the Internet. I learned something new, thank you :)
