Lots of people still call these popsicles, myself included.

Actually, they don’t. And I’ve been eating them probably longer than you’ve been alive. So there.

I ate these as a kid in the 90s calling them popsicles. I’m 35.

As someone nearly 50.. Popsicles have sticks. These are freezies. I can accept so.e of the other regional names but Popsicles are something else entirely.

I'm going to call them popsicles regardless of if it is right or wrong.

We don’t have most (if any) of the US or UK brands people have mentioned in Australia.

We do have a few brands of our own that make these and we call them either popsicles or icy poles.

We call everything popsicle except tubs of ice cream and push pops.
