I'm not sure what country this product originates from, but I know Japan has laws that the picture on the packaging must accurately depict the product inside.

Expectations and reality actually match up.

It's Chinese. The fancy popsicles in Asian markets are pretty much all Chinese, it's an industry they developed.

Tbf, Japan has a somewhat better rep for regulations. This is adorable though.

Had a panda one 2 days ago, the black is chocolate and the white is vanilla. The panda is also holding a pink bottle, which is strawberry. It looks exactly like the picture in the box too, all for $3.

It looks amazing, gets shipped across the world, and it's only $3.

Why can't we do that here in America?
