Do you remember and miss Astro Pops, those rocket shaped suckers?

Asked by Aster (20028points) January 2nd, 2011

I was addicted to Astro Pops in the late 1980’s . I read they stopped making them ; another company allegedly has begun making them once again. Do you remember or miss them too?

I miss em, hopefully this summer I’ll be able to catch the ice cream man and get a few.

But I mean lollypops; not ice cream (popsicles). But I know what you’re referring to; they’re sold at the grocery store. These are hard lollypops I’m talking about.

The ice cream trucks in my hometown rarely serve only ice cream, I know what you are talking about and the first time I had one I bought it from a Ice cream truck.

You bought a sucker from an ice cream truck?? Wow. Did they sell candybars too? so they’ve branched out. Good business acumen.

Winters's avatar

Yep, most of them sell candy bars as well, and laser pointers, and cap guns, and bb guns (no bb’s though), and squirt guns, and a whole variety of different things to spice up your long summer days.

They stopped making Astro Pops? It’s the end of an era! My life will never be the same.
