Otter Pops, purple aka Alexander the Grape is best

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago

Otter Pops but I don't remember actually liking any of the flavors

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

Seconding Otter Pops. But I had totally forgotten Alexander the Grape until you said it.

[–] nyahlathotep 10 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

I'd call them ice pops. Favorite would be purple/black assuming they're "grape^tm^", because I'm a trash person. Second would be red, third would be orange. Blue would weird me out so I wouldn't try it. It's probably raspberry, which I'm not a fan of. Finally, I'd assume green was sour apple or lime, which I also don't like. Though if they turned out to be watermelon then I'd be missing out

Wait, nobody just calls these popsicles? (Central US, was a kid in the 90s) I loved all the flavors except the light yellow one which was banana sometimes depending on the brand.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I am assuming that this is a hyper-local thing to wherever you were raised.

Popsicle is a brand that's over 100 years old and makes frozen treats on sticks.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago (2 children)

When I was a kid we were all perfectly aware of the Popsicle brand, and we still called these things popsicles. Like how every tissue is a Kleenex, or every adhesive bandage is a Band-Aid.

Same as you, except early 2000s, and banana is actually the best flavor

Freezies. I'll take a blue!

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I'd call them "Wassereis" and green is best

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

This right here is the correct answer because Waldmeister.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

Waldmeister is nice but I like the red ones a bit more.

Zooper dooper. Where the other Aussies at?
I'd do the cola flavour because it's fucken amazing

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Cola always the first Zooper Dooper to go. It's the only thing my family can agree on.

Yep Zooper Dooper was the first thing I thought of when I saw it. Cola is pretty nice as well.

ice pops! and strawberry / pink is the bomb

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Icey pops. Mystery Green was my jam

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

Freezer pops, blue!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

We called em Chilly Willies. There was a brand sold in my area named after the penguin character (Chilly Willy) associated with Woody Woodpecker. So as kids we loved that and just called any brand of them by that name.

Best color was orange IMO.

Lotta people here not going for red first. That just means you won't get them because they'll be gone by the time you get to 'em

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

Everyone knows clear/white (which had a cream soda flavour) is the best. Why is it not in the picture? I can only assume because the person who took the picture already ate all of the clear ones (cause, you know, they're the best).

PS: we called them freezies.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

U people are mad, cola flavor ftw!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

They're called freeze pops. And green is the best color, but red is the best flavor

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Flavor ice. And I'll kill for the orange one.

[–] AlligatorBlizzard 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Flavor Ice too, and I'm taking a pink.

Fun fact, Flavor Ice is the same company behind Flavor Aid, the drink mix that was actually used at Jonestown because the cult was broke!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Damn, that’s messed up… Kool-Aid gets all the credit!

We called them popsicles. Blue is by far the best

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (3 children)

Bolis (Mexico). Orange is the one. Anything else tastes like defeat.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

I called them freezer pops and blue is the best followed by red.

[–] tysnae24hn 3 points 2 years ago
[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Freezies! Orange is the best, followed by red and then white/clear.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Ice pops. Pink or Blue please!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Fruity ice cylinders

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Freezies it what we called them. The best flavour is white. It was cream soda flavour or something similar.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Mr. Freeze (France)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (2 children)

We call them "Fás" here in Portugal.
