Koala's March is a yummy, bite-sized cookie snack. It has a crispy cookie shell and a sweet, creamy filling inside. These popular treats are made by a company called Lotte.
The cookies first came out in Japan in March 1984. Later, in May 1990, they were also released in the United States. When they first arrived in the U.S., they were called "Koala Yummies." But now, they use the same name as in Japan: "Koala's March."
