Flavor: Azuki
Notes: Azuki is a 'sweet red bean paste'. A traditional japanese treat, it shows up in cookies, ice cream, etc. An azuki loving friend of mine was excited to try them, but says that they don't really taste like azuki. No one else was able to place the flavors either - guesses ranged from 'Fajitas' to 'Burnt cinnamon toast crunch'. While not bad, per se, it certainly wasn't very good.
Rating: 4 out of 10 (because I didn't like it, and because it didn't taste like the real deal)
Flavor: Whipped Chocolate Mousse
Notes: I am trying to close out the 'Mousse' category on my pocky list. I'd give my own notes, but this review I found at Animecastle is perfect:
"these pockys are so delicious, their flavor is to glory and its chocolate flavor is huge, 2 months ago my cousin went to study to japon, and when my prime return, brought 2 boxes of pocky flavor chocolate (small and giant) of strawberry, of mousse of chocolate and of almond, when it observes them seemed rare to me... but when I them probre... I could not stop to eat, if you have not tasted pockys..... you plows an idiot"
