POPSICLES

So this is something that when I see, it screams "CHILDHOOD!"

I grew up eating these! I use to go to my grans house every day and take a walk to the cafe up the road .. It was those typical Coca-Cola sign cafes that just sold the basic groceries of a household including stationery, cheap toys, lots of sweets and chocolates & of course POPSICLES.

Some of you might call it ice lollies etc but we just called it POPSICLES. There's no label or sticker on the packaging, even when you purchase a whole bag of it, so I'm not sure exactly what the official name is. 


Popsicles is basically flavoured iced. The flavouring is so delicious but it stains your tongue pink! I can't say it does this beacause it's a cheap flavouring (slush puppy stains your tongue too!) but it's just SO WORTH IT.

It use to be 50c for the big one but recently (Like 2 days ago) I bought a POPSICLE because I was driving past with my dad & it was R1 - recession didn't affect it that much! & the best part is that it still tasted the same! 


The 'traditional' childhood way for me was to buy a POPSICLE, wrap a toweling paper around it because it was SO COLD (use to burn my skin) & then bite the corner of the plastic & then you just eat it like that. There was no such thing as scissors. 

Two days ago I decided to relive my childhood, you should do it sometimes too! It's worth it :) 




Until next time, keep your life frosted! <3
