Do You Know the Difference Between a “Real Lick” and a “Courtesy Lick”? Revealed Video Tells You if She Likes You or Not Based on How She Licks Her Fingers

It’s almost February 14th, Valentine’s Day, which means the season that keeps Japanese girls on pins and needles is upon us.

Some may think, “Why Valentine’s?” Well in Japan, on Valentine’s Day it’s customary for women to confess their feelings to their crush and give them chocolate. Although it giving the person you like was originally the norm, over the past few years it’s become a trend for women to give “giri choco” (chocolate given as a courtesy) to people they don’t like (at least in that way) but often spend time with, like co-workers and classmates (and recently it’s not only given to guys, but also other female friends).

Going along with this, a promotion video for the Scorn snack series, called Do Hamari Scorn Rich Chicken Namba Flavor, was made to parody this Valentine “courtesy” culture.

Do You Know the Difference Between a “Real Lick” and a “Courtesy Lick”

Do Hamari Scorn Rich Chicken Namba Flavor

Scorn is a crunchy snack with a lot of flavor, and especially considered a nation-wide favorite among the younger population. But since there’s so much flavor powder used in it, it’s impossible to not to get it all over your fingers. We can’t say how many people would do it in front of other people, but we bet that almost 100% of people eating it alone definitely lick their fingers. It’s just that good!

This video appeals to ‘how much a girl likes you depending on how she licks her fingers’. Depending on how these girls lick their fingers while eating Scorn in front of a guy, you can clearly tell whether or not she’s into you. While on the subject, the first part of the video shows how girls lick their fingers when they don’t like you, and the second part how they lick their fingers when they do.

Also, here’s excerpt from the funny, serious-like comments on Scorn maker Koikeya’s official website. (lol)
“We believe all women can relate to the girl’s “courtesy lick” scene 34 seconds in. It’s a realistic courtesy lick scene where the girl is trying to conceal her annoyance at having to do a courtesy lick in front a guy she’s totally not into. We would like not only ladies to watch the real lick scenes from 1 minute 24 seconds in, but guys as well. We don’t think any men will be able to think straight after seeing the cute way these girls lick their fingers.

That’s right, Scorn is a happy snack that lets you show the person you like how you lick your fingers. It may be from a guy’s perspective, but surely ladies also want to see how guys lick their fingers when eating Scorn, right? I really hope they’ll make a guy finger licking version of this video soon!
