WOW ! Feast's rock ! I remember having em when I was like 12 they are the ones with choc and crunchy stuff on the oustide, choc icecream, then solid choc in the middle yea ?
I mean this in the most pleasant spirit... I often relish in the differences in terms across the atlantic... If I walked into an inner-city convenience store in the States and ordered an "ice lollie" the only thing that would allow me to out run an arse kicking is that everyone in earshot would be laughing too hard... hopefully, I will be traveling to England sometime in the next year and I shutter to think what terms fly out of my mouth without a second thought that could result in the same over there...
So what's an Ice Lolly in American then.. ? "Get me a Strawberry Freeze Stick, buddy.. on Rye, hold the Mayo and if it ain't here by the time I've finished my Caramel and Root Beer Frappachino, I'll sue your goddamn ass from here to the moon!"
Magnum Double Choc for me! Schaweet! I would eat them all the time, but they just go straight to my hips.
Well, there's popsicles (strictly kid stuff), that would cover frozen flavored water on a stick, and fudsicles, which would cover chocolatey pseudo-ice cream frozen on a stick. Moving up the ladder, we have ice cream bars (adults might eat these), which minimally involve actual ice cream and chocolate (stick optional) and then the ice cream bars that are branded like candy bars, such as Snickers, they cost way too much and have extra ingedients. But the ruler of the universe of frozen things on sticks is the Dove bar. At outdoor events you can buy these for as much as $4 a throw. Not suitable for children, they're too damn good. Adults only. My kids are quite content with flav-r-ice (tubes of colored and possibly flavored water that you freeze, no stick) and since I can get a couple hundred of those for the price of a box of Dove bars, that's all that's in my freezer.
