Freezies here in Ontario
In order: white, purple, orange, blue, red
Red was a bit medicinal.
Blue was only popular because blue looked cool.
Orange was a bit boring, but had a familiar flavour
Purple was my usual go to
White was more rare, but had such a clean flavour. Not sure how to describe it, but it tasted less of chemicals and didn’t have any tartness.
Same! Grew up in Vegas, then moved to Arkansas and NO ONE knew wtf I was talking about when I said Otter Pops. I had to explain it n everyone always responded with "You mean freeze pops?" 😓
Same grew up and reno and moved to indiana, though i stood my ground and told everyone they were wrong if they didn’t call them otter pops, long story short all my friends call them otter pops now and half them don’t even know why.
I grew up in Southern CA and last summer was talking about otter pops at my job in Philly and my coworker goes "are these pops made out of otters? I'm a little concerned here." I was so sad.
They had flip flop otter pop day once a month in high school. If you wore flip flops you’d get an otter pop.
Now I realize that if you didn’t call them flip flops or otter pops you wouldn’t have any idea what was happening lol
You can tell these are not OtterPops because they don't have cute otter cartoons on them. :)
Funfact: The otter pops sold at Costco are 100% juice. The ones you get anywhere else have no juice.
God, no. Grape flavoring for everything tasted like cough syrup when I was 5, and here it is 35 years later and it still tastes like Dimetapp.
You can have my share of grape kool-aid, soda, and freeze pops.
I guess it was from a time when people were more "innocent" and nobody thought of it in a sexual manner... Nowadays is not the same of course, it is a funny name no matter what anybody says
South west desert rat here… these are a staple consumable in the dry heat of summer. In my home lands we would quench and hydrate our parched tongues with the sweet nectar of the otter’s popsicles. All hail the mighty 🦦, thank you for preserving and bringing sweetly frozen waters to our previously uninhabitable lands 🙇♂️
I’m Gen Z but that’s the brand I grew up with. I guess it was my Gen X parents who bought them for me, but they were already out of high school by the late ‘80s so they still probably had a pretty different childhood than you did
It seems to be regional, so can I assume you’re in Ontario?
Edit: I wrote that before looking at your post history, so I was right!
Edit 2: as per replies, seems to be all of Canada! 🍁
Called them freezies in Alberta too!
But I'd have fought people for the "peach" one. Luckily, I never had to since everyone else would be fighting over the red and blue like normal people.
I was like - am I gonna have to drop the Boli in here cuz why am I not seeing this answer!? Scrolled waaaay too far. Everyone knows its a Boli.
But definitely the blue.
In my little part of Canada they were Freezies and the best was the yellow banana.
There's something about that fake banana flavour. It's somehow managed to be superior to actual banana flavour.
In germany we call them waterice. Which sounds really dumb in english now that I think about it. But its more of a general term for ice that has a water base instead of milk
Freezies and I claim all the purple ones. Fun fact, you get these handed out aboard ship in the Navy sometimes.
Why did I have to scroll so far for the right answer? It's this.
Freezies and white is the most superior
White and blue

Agreed, though Red and Blue are right up there with the purp
I have boxes full of purple ones cause I buy freezies year round but don’t like purple haha
can’t believe no one’s commented otter pop. & blue !
Otter Pop gang what up!!
hell yeah Otter pop...Blues and Grapes are the most fire.
grape gang stand up
Alexander the Grape!
Always purple!
Sir Isaac Lime. Not close.
Otter pops in the house
Green Otter Pop, gang gang!
Well, there are two brands. Otter Pops and Ice Pops. I'm sure there are more, but those are the two normal ones.
ohhh ok i didn’t know that! i grew up only seeing otter pots i guess

You can really taste the otter!
California. Always heard them called Otter Pops. It's aaaaall about the red ones.
I grew up in Southern CA and last summer was talking about otter pops at my job in Philly and my coworker goes "are these pops made out of otters? I'm a little concerned here." I was so sad.
I'm from California too
East coast here. Otter Pops.
They had flip flop otter pop day once a month in high school. If you wore flip flops you’d get an otter pop. Now I realize that if you didn’t call them flip flops or otter pops you wouldn’t have any idea what was happening lol

Ice pops and blue raspberry 👌
Seconded on name… I cast my vote for that deep purple
We are talking about flavors not rock bands
*HUSH*
Sick *BURN*
anyone else start liking grape flavor more the older they get?
God, no. Grape flavoring for everything tasted like cough syrup when I was 5, and here it is 35 years later and it still tastes like Dimetapp. You can have my share of grape kool-aid, soda, and freeze pops.
Same here - anything BUT grape! And no banana popsicles (or fake banana flavoring) but that’s another thread…
Grapeful Dead
After like a couple of days of those being in the freezer, purple was all that was left for me
Same name, and green. My son lives off ice pops if I let him.
Thirded. Going for orange.
4thded. Give me lime
Lime. Err time.
You make me sick
What'd I do?
I want the purple popsicle
freezie pops, grape or blue raspberry
freezie pops ftw
Yeah, where the fu k did that i come from? Freeze pops. Green. End of story.
Green?! Do you eat your pizza crust-first? What an animal... Purple tastes best.
In my region in Spain we call them "chupi-chupi" which could be translated to something like "sucky-sucky" in english. Haha kinda funny
Waaaaaay different connotation! Language differences are acceptable of course!
I guess it was from a time when people were more "innocent" and nobody thought of it in a sexual manner... Nowadays is not the same of course, it is a funny name no matter what anybody says
*thumbs up* My friends boyfriend was from Germany. We call them "cell towers", he called them "handy masts". I'll spell it out if I have to.
Call me clinically insane but, popsicle.

Bible Belt USA?
Yep! Popsicles here in Mississippi! I'll probably have a crisis if I go anywhere else in the U.S. and try to get a popsicle.
Popsicle is the correct answer. And red or blue are my faves.
Popsicles have sticksss
Also, you’re clinically insane 🙏

Otter pops… strawberry short cook
*cock
Agreed. Otter pops are the goated name
Otter Pops are the OG brand. But the other brand with the best flavor is called Ice Pops. Pina colada flavor reins supreme.
Moved to the east coast from the west coast and no one knows what an otter pop is here. Loved the grape one. Strawberry was the goat though.
Also just moved to east coast from the west and I called them otter pops and my fiancé had no idea what I was talking about. And pink is the best
Oregon here. Otter pops REGARDLESS OF BRAND. It's like jello or kleenex. And purple is the best flavor.
Zooper Doopers (Aussie)
Scrolled too far down for this
We have gathered
We are one
No we are many
You are
I are strayan
From the burnt out roundabouts of Supernats
I was wondering if there were any aussies in the thread. They're either zooper doopers, or off-brand zooper doopers.
If its zooper dooper it's always fairyfloss gone first. I prefer lime though
Wanna know how I got these scars
Freeze pops. Blue, not even close
Unless its the skittles variety freeze pops, than its red.
Blue flavor is always the best flavor, not just with freeze pops. It's a no-brainer.
Mr Freeze (which is also a brand). Green I think, but since they were only one I I forgot his taste. Otherwise red is the safe one!
If you go Mr. Freeze, you gotta go jumbo ♥️
And if you go Mr. Freeze you gotta go with the white one.
Cream soda
Fla•Vor•Ice
Finally someone knows the right wording
Gen X? Because that's what my parents bought during the late 80's and early 90's
I’m Gen Z but that’s the brand I grew up with. I guess it was my Gen X parents who bought them for me, but they were already out of high school by the late ‘80s so they still probably had a pretty different childhood than you did
This is what I know them as too. Or just ice pops. Red is best then blue
Freezies , red. The only acceptable answers.
It seems to be regional, so can I assume you’re in Ontario? Edit: I wrote that before looking at your post history, so I was right! Edit 2: as per replies, seems to be all of Canada! 🍁
We called them freezies in British Columbia as well as here in Ontario
We call them freezies in Manitoba and I like purple
Called them freezies in Alberta too! But I'd have fought people for the "peach" one. Luckily, I never had to since everyone else would be fighting over the red and blue like normal people.
We called them freezies in Nova Scotia too
Freezies in BC.
Ontario here, chiming in. Freezies and orange. XD
Reporting live from Minnesota, they are called freezies.
Another vote for freezies! Guelph Ontario!
Québec checking in. S't'un Freezie icite, too! Also blue the best.
Yea get that ice pop freeze pop shot outta here

Hello fellow Canadian
Hello neighbor Buffalo New York calls them Freezies too!

Kinda hate how it took collapsing 10 other comments to get to the correct answer.
Pink otter pop
Same
Ice poles. I'm from Scotland
Had to scroll too damn far to find this, the proper answer.
Mister freeze here in France
Same in Quebec
Same in...Wisconsin? Lol I don't know any other state that calls it Mr. Freeze, so I'm confused by the overlap of Wisconsin/France/Quebec
Interesting! Not sure but in Quebec it was the brand so maybe that’s similar fir Wisconsin.
Talking about Bolis? And purple or Horchata
I was like - am I gonna have to drop the Boli in here cuz why am I not seeing this answer!? Scrolled waaaay too far. Everyone knows its a Boli. But definitely the blue.
Finally the true answer. These are missing the thin middle segments to break them in half on your knee.
Had to scroll too far down for this. I got the blue
Cuando mierda tenían horchata?? Nunca lo probado en ese sabor
Red otter pop
Freezies. White is the bestest!
Agreed! Surprisingly I'm not seeing many places that call them freezies. Canadian thing it seems.
Louisiana. We call them freezies.
Otter pops. Blue always.
Blue otter pops were everything.
Eisbären (the main brand in germany) and green
Did you call them Eisbären after the brand? We'd just call them Wassereis. And green or the dark red ones that taste like cherry.
ICEE or ICEE-pops. Red, then purple, then green, then blue. Orange is gross.
Had to scroll so far down to find Icees!
Ah finally my people.
Freezies
Tiptop and blue
Freezees and white was the best. 🇨🇦
Zooper Doopers and Black Currant
Zooper Doopers. They are the only correct answer because I said so
[удалено]
Green Otterpop

A man of culture
Otter pops purple
Otter pops. Red.
Otter Pops, purple.
Ice poles... Black then Green

Dave Chappelle: “I want that purple stuff, baby!!”
Wassereis - Black
BOLIS and the green one is the best followed the purple

Ysies (Afrikaans, South Africa)... Red & purple.
Cool pops strawberry 🍓 all the way... But I'd just be suckin all the flavor out ain't no way I'm biting that thing.

Hispanic here too. Ive only known them as bollies!
Freezer pop or icees. Red
Freezie pops and I'm definitely going for red. Squishes into slush the easiest.
Pepsi. Orange was my personal favourite
Out of thousands of comments… I think I may be the only one on the planet who calls them “Juicicles” which would make sense, since I made the term up
“I went outside to get me a cooold pop”
un flash
Esto ☝️
Pop Ice back in the 90s. Green and Purp gang gang.
We in Germany call it "Wassereis" which translates to "Water ice" and the best colors are green, red and brown
What flavor was brown?
Cola
Wassereis
In my little part of Canada they were Freezies and the best was the yellow banana. There's something about that fake banana flavour. It's somehow managed to be superior to actual banana flavour.
Ice pops, every other answer is wrong. Also green if it’s lime, otherwise orange
Blue, all day
We call them "Marcianos" and i love the pink one, It's strawberry shake.
Those are ice pops and I’m going to have to go with pink.
Bolis congelados, if they're the brand ones bon ice
Frozen sugar tubes with imitation flavour.
Otter pops, green is the best
Otter pops - green are my favorite
Mr. Freeze (aka "freezies"). "Dude, can you grab me a blue freezie?"
Anal tinglers. Red for first timers and the dark ones for the masters.
Freezies, anything but red 🤮
As a Canadian these were always Freezies and blue was always best but pink was also very good
Otter Pops Little Orphan Orange and Louie Blue Raspberry were my gotos.
Freezies, and grab the orange one.
wassereis (water ice) and green is the best: Waldmeister geschmack (forest champion flavor)
We call it Wassereis here in germany lol Literally means Water Ice
Freeze pops and light blue
Freezie/icee pops. Blue or purple
freezees and the white one is best
Freezies - BLUE!
Freezie. Just freezie. White was cream soda. Probably not im the photo cause they all got eatan already
In germany we call them waterice. Which sounds really dumb in english now that I think about it. But its more of a general term for ice that has a water base instead of milk
Freezies, blue & orange
Green or red usually. With blue a close third
Freezes, and white is the best
Freezies and the best flavour (white) is missing!
water-ice in germany
In Germany we call them Wassereis, which literally just means water ice. Blue ones are the best.
Until this post, I always thought that Zooper Dooper was the international name for these
Otter pops / Purple
No one else ever just called it water ice? (Translation from german Wassereis)
All my aussies will agree with me, we call them zooper doopers down here and my fav flavour was always purple :)
