Not similar to Fudgesicle?

[edit]

Hrm: on the edit made by 139.168.86.28 I'd say it's rather similar to fudgesicles and gives a reference for US audiences:

  • wooden stick to hold on to
  • dairy chocolate fudgesicle in taste isn't too far off chocolate paddlepop.

Still other than the obvious visual similarity with the wooden stick to hold onto (as per the sentence) there's probably no reference to be found to back that up. NathanLee 15:58, 9 August 2007 (UTC)Reply


Nickelback Reference?

[edit]

Why is there a reference to the Nickelback frontman?

The lion could look like any unkempt man. The Paddle Pop Lion is an Australian icon, Nickelback is Canadian. There is no reason for this reference. 124.177.67.111 (talk) 12:27, 7 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

Trademark

[edit]

The swirl trademark belongs to the English Walls company, also owned by Unilever. When did this come about? Streets did make some Walls products under license, Cornetto being the obvious one, dating back to the 60s, although Streets were never owned by Walls.61.68.161.48 (talk) 10:59, 30 December 2016 (UTC)Reply

Ice Creams

[edit]

I have been researching Paddle Pop flavours for a few months and have collected many images to correlate dates based on prices on display posters, news articles, and being a kid in Melbourne Australia during the 1970s/1980s.

The previous list had no citations, and I've not added any (to be honest I don't know how to do it). There's nothing to cite to in most cases.

I can send you some images if you like.

I just wanted the list to be as accurate and detailed as possible as there's a lot of interest in these ice creams in Australia, based on Facebook Groups like 'Old Shops Australia', and 'Memory Lane - Growing up in Australia' Dptalbot (talk) 10:51, 6 October 2026 (UTC)Reply
