To give the snack a name which western children would be more familiar with, the dub has referred to them as sandwiches, cookies, jelly donuts and popcorn balls. In a couple of [[Hoenn League]] episodes, the [[4Kids Entertainment|4Kids]] dub replaced giant rice balls with large sandwiches, which was not received well by the fanbase.
