Pepero Day

11/11 was Pepero Day. Students bring in thin cookie sticks dipped in chocolate called pepero for their friends and teachers.

You're probably wondering more about pepero: who makes it, where can I get some, and why is it a holiday? Pepero Day was invented by the Korean company Lotte. The Lotte company are also the only ones who make the "real" pepero sticks. I don't know where you can buy pepero unless you have an Asian market near your house, or you want to order some online. They're pretty good, but probably not worth your trouble.

Anyway, on Pepero Day, students, teachers, and anyone near a school, eats a ton of pepero that day and for the next few days.
