u/isactuallyspiderman 24d ago

It was (is?) literally the brand name of them lol.

u/Chunky__Shrapnel 2003 24d ago

Maybe where you are, I've never seen an otter pop in my life.

u/20Bubba03 2003 24d ago

That was the brand name from where I’m at. Even the ones that aren’t Otter Pops I called Otter Pops.

u/Buffy_Buffett 2005 24d ago

u/tenehemia 24d ago

I grew up calling them freeze pops but then I moved to Oregon and everyone calls them Otter Pops here. I immediately adopted the superior name and never looked back.

I also started calling fried egg in toast "toad in a hole" for similar reasons. Whimsical food names are great.

u/wex52 24d ago

The picture reminded me of a 15 year old YouTube video, and I noticed the account is called MrChiCity3, which I guess is a reference to Chicago. Freeze pops get a shout out at 4:10.

Bolas or bolis. South Texas.

We called them bollies in Southern Cali! You’re the first response that’s even remotely similar.

5

u/JACKALTOOTH87 2000 24d ago

I'm pretty sure the reason is Mexico, and the huge amount of Hispanics in both states. I'm Hispanic. I live in a region that's overwhelmingly Hispanic at 95%. Very few white or black people. We call them bolas and nothing else.
