I’ve been waiting for these to hit the U.S. I should really eat real bananas instead, but I really want to eat these. OH. MY. GOODNESS. Look at what junk food has done to me! Look at what it has done to me! …and scene. (Spotted by Kevin at Walmart.)
Hey Crossfit folks! I’m going to enjoy these Wonka Push-Ups, while I watch you do push-ups that I should really be doing because I’m eating Wonka Push-Ups. (Spotted by Nick at Price Chopper.)
The term “pepperoni flavored meat sticks” scares me. (Spotted by Kayla at Safeway.)
A cookie with cookie flavor? Incookietion? (Spotted by Nicolas at Meijer.)

Why do people seem to think athletes don’t eat junk food? I eat plenty – especially when I’m trying to eat back calories burned at the end of the day.
I used to get banana pops in Korea often once they started appearing in stores. Unlike the Wonka Peel A Pops they were just straight up banana flavoured.

I think Nestle did a peel a pop concept back then but it was in another country. I remember a blog post from another blog covering a banana peel concept pop.
Wonder how this one will taste it sounds good but little expensive.
What is the ‘peel’ of the peel-a-pop made of?
I believe gelatin is used
Oh wow, I hope the peelable banana ice lollies make it to the UK too!
@alek I did review the Nestle Pirulo Jungly on my blog which was a very similar (possibly identical) ice lolly. I bought those whilst in Portugal and I’m still waiting for them to be available here.
I wish they’d bring back bug pops from the mid 90’s…those were great.
yes!!! they were!
my mom only let us eat ice cream at the gas station on family roadtrips… it was always flinstone pushups and teenage ninja mutant turtles ice cream (with bubble gum eyes) for me! yum!
I hope they make some of those peel a pops in cherry!
been wondering if you have to peel these wonka pops yourself or not, picked up a box and you do, sticky hands unless you eat them w/o peeling
ice cream you have to touch, got to be one of the dumbest ideas ever
I bought those Wonka Peel-a-pop in Grape Vanilla and thought the peel part in grape was odd but I loved the vanilla on the inside that was really smooth and creamy. The grape outside was like rubbbery almost to me and no flavor almost.
