The normal gang was hanging out in a new dessert place tonight, because we were too far from Little Italy and no place locally was big enough to fit our gang of seven. So we found some empty tables, with enough chairs to accommodate, and hung out this evening in a Japanese grocery mart seated next to a homeless person and her jar of peanut butter.
One of my friends was roaming the aisles and called my attention to the box you see on the right: Men's Pocky. Pocky for men?? Why??? Higher protein and testosterone content than in normal Pocky, I thought. My innate detective skills investigated immediately... There is a different type of cocoa in the ingredients list, and there is a higher amount of saturated fat and 10 times the amount of cholesterol than in normal Pocky. Nowhere on the box does it actually explain the difference though. Hmmm...I came to the conclusion that there doesn't need to be a difference. We need things that are separate for men. Remember when Structure was a men's clothing store? Then it became "Express for Men?" Express sells women's clothes! They can't sell men's clothes too. We need men clothes, men's rooms, and men food. It's evolution.
If you wish to discuss more Pocky, I found a board dedicated to the Super Snack here.
More stuff for men, I say.
