My Life Sucks- The kids I babysit have drooled, ripped or drawn on all of the cards and put the cars with the little people in the microwave!

I have no Friends- The cats have scratched and destroyed all of the DVDs!

I always owe someone- In fact I put two os in it!

I always ruin my clothes with Bleach!- The show is so dom suspensful I spill my grape soda on them!

But . . .I'll live.

How could that be possible when Meiji discontinued Lucky Stick so many years ago?

You should check where it's made. I suspect a third world country.

I've never tried Lucky Stick and I don't know about it, but I think there are so many Pocky clones available nowaday (for some country), many of them are from China some are from Malaysia or Singapore.

In my opinion they are all the same. biscuit stick with milky sugar coating. How can you tell the difference?

Yeah... Haven't seen Lucky Stick anywhere anymore. My opinion would be to stick with the Pocky... Pocky is delicious; I only wish my local supermarket had more flavors than just chocolate and strawberry...... But I love Pocky nonetheless!


I'm pretty content with life right now....For the most part, anyway....Well, at least, I'm pretty sure I am....
