@TJ Ouch, well that blows the smoke off of my argument. Oh well, thanks for clearing it up, I stand corrected that Tootsie Pops have not shrunk and I was ignorant of the mini sizes.

It still leaves remaining, after all of these years, the answer to the question….

Tootsie makes two sizes of pops: those similar to the original, and those that are about the size of a Dum-Dum.

@Jim: It was 2 licks and a crunch. I could not even tell there was anything in the middle

But Dog,

How many licks did it take you? Accounting, of course, for your canine tongue :)

Wow, how are you supposed to choke on a tootsie pop that small? Size was one of the things that set it apart from Dum Dums.

I’m right there, my friend, stuck in the middle with you.

You’re right about the size, too. :)
