It was a red, white and blue ice pop with about 6 "fins" running down the sides. It was red on the top, white in the middle, and blue on the bottom.

I wonder if they still make it, or if it's just too un-"PC" for today.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19281747.post-56497228760104151802007-06-29T15:02:00.000-07:002007-06-29T15:02:00.000-07:00On second thought, I do recall an icecream bar bei...On second thought, I do recall an icecream bar being referred to as an "icecream popsicle", but if someone were to offer me a "popsicle", I would have naturally concluded it to be ice like unless otherwise stated.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19281747.post-21842721009775103862007-06-28T21:33:00.000-07:002007-06-28T21:33:00.000-07:00They were definately "bars", a "pop" had to be ice...They were definately "bars", a "pop" had to be ice-like.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19281747.post-72616405998936278602007-06-26T23:16:00.000-07:002007-06-26T23:16:00.000-07:00I never in my life called them "pops," even back t...I never in my life called them "pops," even back there.
