I recently was really craving some pretzels and so I decided to make some. They turned out delicious and I was so happy!
  

Ehime Prefecture's official mascot is called Mican. The combination of a mandarin orange and a puppy creates the cute and lovable character. The name mikan is a play on words in the Japanese language, where the sound of mi (from mikan) and kyan (the sound a dog makes when it barks).

This character design helps to promote the prefecture and its local specialties. Mikan oranges are a local specialty of Ehime, and the character symbolizes the abundance of mandarin-type oranges grown in the prefecture. They taste great too!
