In Japan, it is common for women to give chocolate to men on Valentine's Day. Moreover, apart from the special one to gift to send your love, smaller boxes of chocolate are given to dads, teachers, colleagues and friends, just for the sake of saying thank you casually on this occasion.
This seems to be a uniquely Japanese culture, and one might wonder, "Why chocolate?"
There are various theories, but it seems to have started in the 1950s when a famous chocolate maker started a campaign to celebrate Valentine's Day. It’s widely spread so that we don’t remember how it started but you will find piles of chocolates at shops every year just like you find them prior to the Easter in some countries.
Today, the custom has changed a bit, with men giving gifts to women, and friends exchanging gifts with each other.
It is still a day to give a gift to that special person who is always by your side.
We hope you find special gift for the one you love, or try the Japanese way to say thanks to your loved ones this Valentine’s Day.
