Yeah! The combination of chocolate and strawberry seems standard but it’s a delicious combination, huh?
Yep. This chocolate snack makes us realize that this combination is awesome! Here we go! It’s Apollo!!

What Is Apollo?

It’s chocolate snack, developed by Meiji Co., Ltd in 1969.
Each piece includes milk chocolate topped with strawberry flavored chocolate. We sometimes see pieces with these flavors upside down.
The shape of this snack is derived from Apollo which has made a success landing on the moon and returning to the earth in 1969. Originally, it was after the solar deity, Apollo, however, since Apollo 11 became a hot subject back then, it was released from it.

Simple? But a variety of ways of eating and playing!
Apollo’s special flavors and DIY Candy are popular too!

Speaking of Apollo, this rich-mellow-strawberry flavored one, which has been ranked in top every week at Japanese Snacks Republic, is fantastic, huh?
