Japan's White Day
Japan often likes to make its own version of customs and holidays. In Japan the traditions of Valentine's Day are separated into two days. On the February 14th, Valentine's Day, only women give chocolate or some other sweet (but usually chocolate) to men; it is usually also given to coworkers and acquaintances, not just loved ones. Then on March 14th, men are expected return the favor and give sweets to the women they received their own from.
