Pondering the Mysteries of Halloween...
Sat Oct 29, 2005 11:46 pm
As the little trick or treaters traipse in their Barbie outfits and Ninja garbs, their Scream masks and Renaissance....whatever they are, they stumble upon a candie.
This candie, round in form with a white stick protruding, tastes sweet from first taste to the end, and leaves the eater licking away for minutes. But lo and behold! There is a surprise at the center!
I am talking about a Tootsie Pop. And now for the age old question.... *Drumroll*
How many licks does it take to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop?
I got 267, from savour-licks. How about you?

The other day it took me about 294. I wonder if it has to do with the size of your tongue...or the size of the lollipop...or a bunch of other variables. o.O

Well, wouldn't the pH or something change between people? Or am I crazy?

I think both.

Here's still frames from a tootsie roll pop commercial ... http://www.tootsie.com/howmany-sb.html
Basically, it's a candy (hard candy) lollypop and there's a chocolate chewy center. Sounds kind of gross, but they're really good!

I can't buy them here.
Therefore, I can't answer the question.

When I was in sixth grade, it took an average of 1127. :-/ Guess I'm not a good licker like the rest of you.

It also depends which one you get. I discovered a mini-tootsie pop today, and that one's small.....
My lowest now is 243.
