[edit] Japanese version
There's a choco pie made in Japan (well, at least you can buy it in Japan) by Lotte, which is different from the Korean versions that I've bought in the US (I never eaten a choco pie from Korea). The Japanese version is a "chocolate coated vanilla cream sandwich pie" — it doesnt have marshmallow in it, but it does have brandy in it. Subjectively, I like it better than the Korean choco pie. – ishwar (speak) 20:25, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
- Do they call it "Choco Pie"? Isn't that name a trademark of the Orion company? Badagnani (talk) 20:32, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

- Yes, except there're no spaces and all caps and there's additionally the name in Japanese underneath: CHOCOPIE チョコパイ. Incidentally, when I read that Lotte Confectionery and Lotte Group are Korean, my Japanese spouse was surprised since we assumed that the Korean version was a pale imitation of the Japanese original. There are, after all, several Korean and Chinese imitations of Japanese products (such as Pocky) found in US Asian markets. – ishwar (speak) 21:51, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

- About trademarks, I dont know. I've never seen Japanese chocopies in America, we've only gotten it from Japan. – ishwar (speak) 21:54, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

- Incidentally, you can buy the Japanese version from a store near LA: veryasia.com/lottechocopie.html. Also, there is a petit version available in Japan (but not available from the LA store). – ishwar (speak) 18:24, 10 May 2008 (UTC)
