Honmei choco,Giri choco,Tomo choco...

Hello.
This is May in Japan.

Today is Valentine's Day.
In Japan, women give presents like chocolate to men on Valentine's Day.

The chocolate is called differently depending upon a person who get it.


The chocolate which a woman gives a special man is called "Honmei choco".
The chocolate which a woman gives a man who has no romantic feelings is called "Giri choco".
The chocolate which two women give each other is called "Tomo choco".


Most women give "Giri choco" and  "Tomo choco" to people with the meaning of thanks.

I gave chocolates to my work colleagues with the meaning of thanks, too.
I think that the chocolate is good for a means of communication.

Happy Valentine's Day !!
