    What’s your country’s generic name for them?

    Cool pops here. Dominant brand when I was a kid was Mister Freeze.

      In Australia the biggest brand, and therefore the name we all call them is “zooper dooper”.

      Litteraly could not name another brand, I genuinely don’t think I’ve seen a competitor for zooper dooper in Australia (not counting black & gold because that’s not exactly a brand, or squelch, who do the fruit juice version, as it’s a different product).

      It’s strange how zooper dooper are in an entirely unique class of frozen product here. Everything else could arguably be called “an icey pole” but zooper dooper is its own thing somehow. (same as sunny boy, that was its own thing, I miss sunny boy!)
