Pocky, created in 1966, boasts over 50 flavors and has become a cult-classic snack, though not all flavors succeed, as seen with the salty vanilla.
The disappointing salty vanilla flavor features clear crystals that provide no real salty taste, ultimately leaving only a plain vanilla cream flavor on the palate.
In a review, the salty vanilla flavor could benefit from a salty contrast to its sweetness, suggesting that improvisation, like adding salt, might enhance it.
Pocky's popularity is evident as it earned the Guinness World Record for being the best-selling chocolate-covered biscuit brand globally and has its own dedicated day.
