"Popsicle" is listed in the OXFORD English dictionary as a "piece of ice, flavored of fruit, on a stick. A lolly."

Since a tongue depressor already looks like a popsicle stick, why not have a little flavor on the reminds a kid of a popsicle. Then, having on stuck down someone’s throat might be a little more enjoyable.

in Canada they are wooden popsicle sticks. Not much of a difference from what they called it.
