Agreed. Popsicles rock and you can eat a billion of them without getting full.
[image error]i've been eating these. the green ones are my favorite.
remember the ice cream truck and bomb pops?!
I love popsicles! I just bought some yesterday, the first ones this summer, because it finally got properly hot and summery in the northwest last week. I like these:
I have tangerine AND lemonade popsicles in my freezer RIGHT NOW. :)

I'm STRONGLY not a fan of popsicles. I do like those Edy's Creamy Coconut bars, though - pure heaven.

Do they? And coconut popsicles? Ew. We must part on that issue, Heidi.
RandomAnthony wrote: "And coconut popsicles? Ew. We must part on that issue, Heidi."They're coconut milk, not shredded or chopped coconut. THEY ARE DIVINE!
RandomAnthony wrote: "Do they?"TWO jokes on the back of the wrapper. :)
I get my best ones there.
For instance:
What do you call a twitchy cow?
Beef Jerky
What do you call four matadors stuck in quicksand?
Quatro Cinco

I really like the fruit bars, but not the regular Popsicles. When I was a kid, we used to make our own cranberry juices popsicles - tart but yummy.
I miss Jello pops. Those were the best!
If anyone does a Bill Cosby imitation right now I am kicking him/her in the shins.
I'm now imagining Heidi doing a Bill Cosby Jello Pops imitation, and I have to admit it's pretty funny.
Yes you are. You can't help it.

Heidi: I'm with you on this one. LOVE anything with coconut(brownies,cake,pie,popsicles...).
I need to try these. How unhealthy are they?

They're lowfat and calorie free (almost)!!!

It wasn't the pudding pops I like. It was the Jello gelatin pops that made me happy.

Ok, Heidi, now I'm really tempted. Are they pricey like the Haagen-Daz/Dove/Starbucks brands?
i am not a big fan of popsicles. i can take them or leave them. i do like those freezy pop things where you bite off the plastic at the top and squeeze the frozen syrup stuff into your mouth.
when i was a kid we made fake-sicles almost every day where you put kool-aid in the ice cube trays and tried to make a toothpick stick up in them so you had a handle.
Man, I try to get my kids not to bite the tops off of gogurt and those freeze-pop things. Bad for your teeth. But I'm a bad role model.
I like popsicles, they are almost guilt free.
You can eat TEN popsicles and it's only 450 calories. That rules.
if you suck on frozen water it is 0 calories

Ok, nevermind. Wikipedia to the rescue:
Breyers is sometimes confused with Dreyer's, a Nestlé brand. While William Breyer founded his ice cream on the east coast, another man, William Dreyer, founded an ice cream company on the west coast. As the two brands increased their reach across the country, a similarity of name issue was inevitable. In 1981, Dreyer’s made the decision not to sell Dreyer’s branded products in the east. In an agreement with Breyers, Dreyer's sought to market its product east of the Rocky Mountains under the "Edy's Grand" name.[1:] However, Breyers made no similar reciprocal agreement, and by the mid-1980s began to distribute Breyers ice cream to states throughout the midwestern and western United States.[2:] As a result, both Breyers and Dreyer's can be found on grocery shelves in western states.

I've been sick the last few days, and I've eaten about 100 popsicles. After a weaving, hallucinatory drive to the supermarket, I found out that Popsicle brand, uh, popsicles were on sale for A DOLLAR A BOX. I bought ten boxes. I got mostly the grape/orange/cherry boxes, but some lemon/lime/root beer, too (but the root beer ones are gross, you can have them) and damn, they're good. And the sticks have jokes on them! What other food tells you jokes?
That is all. Thank you, world, for popsicles.
