The pairing of rabbits and the moon has long been popular in Japan. According to Japanese folklore, the craters on the moon resemble a rabbit, giving rise to the charming belief that a rabbit lives on the moon.

The non-slip tips of the chopsticks make it easier to eat even slippery foods such as noodles.
