My only gripe is with the flavor of pocky. Strawberry? I'm sorry Morgan, but Alex deserves a man's pocky. Dark chocolate and coffee. Never was more machismo ever present in a delicious Japanese treat. I would even ignore the horrors of PDA's for the delicious luster of succulent cookie-whatever-sticks dipped in smooth, lustrous, coffee-enhanced 72% chocolate...

I'm more of a fan of of regular chocolate Pocky. I've never liked bitter things, including Dark Chocolate, and Strawberry is a bit too sweet for my tastes as well...
At least the Japanese can indulge some people's cravings for a MANS SNACK! Speaking of manly food, have you seen that KFC commercial with the extra crispy things? Your post reminds me of it...

Well, he didn't seem to mind it, but you know in his mind he was thinking "STRAWBERRY?! Come on! Give me Dark Chocolate!" lol

Or he just didn't care.
Just like "Real Men Wear Pink," Alex is secure enough in his masculinity to handle the giiiiirly Strawberry Pocky!
Well I never sad that he couldn't handle it. I just said that he, as a man, would prefer something manlier. Of course, this, along with most of my other posts, sarcastically pokes fun at stereotypes (all you "well, I'm so high and mighty because I can watch people make out" types. You take things waaaay too seriously). And besides, nothing is manlier than strawberry milk, so maybe strawberry pocky IS manly. Who knows?
Maybe Alex should start wearing more pink... I know Carlo would love it!
