I concur with Reine... they are all just Iceblocks!

They are ice blocks.

A friend of mine called them ice poles, though he was British.

NZ keeps things simple.

We have ice creams, which is anything to with ice cream, be it in tubs, sticks, etc, and we have ice blocks, which means anything formed of ice that you suck, lick, etc. Popsicles are a BRAND of iceblock here.

The best I could find for icepops was some strange stub labeld "Pop" which mentioed the term for sleeved popsicles without sticks as "freezies". That would cover Otter Pops and the like.

[Markus. D]

They're Ice Poles. IT'S THE TRUTH!

Apon searching for the definitive term on wikipedia I stumbled apon a lenghtly disscussion on the matter, and infact the serious American bias in the naming of all snack related wikipedia articles.


I now suddenly feel strangely disinterested, and unclean.
