Pumpkin-Flavored Pocky Snacks

Hel-lo, pumpkin.
As Helen of Ready Steady Go points out, this is a good reason to love October and Japan simultaneously. The Japanese stick snacks Pocky have been spotted in such flavors as banana, green tea, and milk, but pumpkin? Even lifetime Pocky eater Robyn was speechless.
Good News: The ingredients contain actual pumpkin.
Bad News: They may not taste like actual pumpkin.

Oh thank you for reminding me. I had forgotten about the pumpkin pocky! I tried it last year. I recall it not tasting like pumpkin... but I also recall that I liked it anyway.

Must find some. Hubby is the biggest pocky junkie ever. Wonder what other new fall flavors are out?
