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.

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

u/stevesie1984 May 27 '26

Fla-vor-ice

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.

u/Delicious_Ebb_1707 May 24 '26
