All the way from Japan comes this chocolate bar called Crunky. Not only does this chocolate candy keep you crunked up, it’s Lil Jon’s favorite snack…especially with crunk juice! For even more crunkiness (is that a word?), try Black Crunky!

I currently reside in Korea and have seen this stuff. Crunky is a KOREAN candy manufactured by LOTTE corporation. For accuracy’s sake:-)

I recently had a Crunky bar (which a Japanese friend brought back from Tokyo)… it’s actually quite good. Similar to an American “Crunch” bar, except the chocolate is of better quality (and much less intensely sweet) and the “crunchies” smaller.

July 4th, 2006 at 10:04 amYeah, it most definitely comes from Japan, because one of my friends ordered it online and she now gets emails that say “Hello from Japan!”
August 19th, 2006 at 5:37 pmI’m in Korea right now and just bought one. It’s definitely Korean. They have a lot of other funny shit here - like bottles of “Man’s Touch” lotion in the men’s rooms.

April 22nd, 2007 at 8:04 pmwell actually it doesn’t matter if its japanese or korean.. if u buy it in jap then its jap if u buy it in kor then its kor… i still love this chocolate…
September 12th, 2007 at 8:52 pmactually yes, Lotte itself is Korean. I’m Japanese and for the longest time, I really believed this company was Japanese. Sadly, for bragging rights its not, although like others who posted previously, there are Japanese Lotte Manufacturing plants, and products catering to whatever region the candy is being produced for. So, while in the states, we all think Lotte is Japanese, it is infact avtually a korean company.
