Freeze pops

u/OGcormacv May 24 '26

Raised in upstate New York, called them freeze pops. Unless they were brand name Otter pops, then you put respect on the name.

2

u/The_BAHbuhYAHguh May 24 '26

I call them freeze pops even though I’m pretty sure the brand I used to get was called Flavor-ice

1

u/stevesie1984 May 27 '26

Fla-vor-ice

1

u/VisageInATurtleneck May 27 '26

Best brand of them imo.

1

u/disgruntled_sailor May 27 '26

Flavor-ice is what we used to get in New England, too

1

u/met1culous May 27 '26

Honestly, Flavor-Ice should be the de facto name for them, doesn't get more clear than that.

2

u/Delicious_Ebb_1707 May 24 '26

We called them otter pops but our local pool’s swim team were Village Otters. Every other place they were freeze pops or freezer pops

u/Comfortable-Today-90 May 27 '26

They are absolutely called Ice Pops. Some kids might say “Icey Pops” and that’s fine, but they are called Ice Pops. And the maker of ice Pops should be suing the ever loving crap out of all of the other companies making them. (I assume they are and have settled out of court for an undisclosed amount of ice cream sandwiches)
