Favorite Pocky/Pretz flavor?

November 11th is Pocky/Pretz day, with the date (11/11) meant to resemble the popular snack icons. Do you have a favorite flavor of Pocky or Pretz? Are you a fan of the traditional flavors (e.g. chocolate or strawberry Pocky) or have any limited-time/special flavors taken your fancy?

    Fuyu no Kirameki! I only eat Pocky once a year, and it has to be the winter caramel version. To me, it tastes like the holidays.

Your food culture, adapted well or?

My family's food culture is a mashup, a mix of Ukrainian, Near Eastern, Scottish, and Irish cuisine with a sprinkling of South American ingredients due to migration. It's pretty wild even before I adapt my dishes to ingredients I can source in Japan. Do you find you keep your recipes strictly orthodox, or do you mix it up? What combos of cuisines and dishes appeal to you and your family?

What's a Japanese autumn tradition you've really come to love?

I mentioned in a blog yesterday that one of the things I love about autumn is the yakiimo warmers that pop up in convenience stores, supermarkets, and farmer's markets at this time of year. What's an autumn tradition that you've come to love during your years here? It could be anything...food-related things, autumn festivals you really enjoy, or possibly something else entirely!
