This morning, Genevieve got me a Super Tootsie Roll Pop. It’s big. Very big. It’s almost the size of one of those plastic eggs that Silly Putty comes in. I think the Nirvanic Chamber said it best with “I don’t feel like I am eating the Tootsie Pop, I feel like it is violating me.”

I bit it. I could not lick all the way to the center.

First of all, commenting first on your own posts is lame. Secondly, tootsie rolls are nasty. It’s like they want you to think it’s chocolate, but really, it’s wax.

This site gets like 1,500 hits a day, and like 1,400 of them are from me.

Do you think calling someone a poopskin is sort of funny?

Yes. Yes I do.

Whatever it is I think I see, becomes a Tootsie Roll to me! Tootsie Rolls are chocolatey, not chocolate. They are a taste sensation all their own.

Yeah, a yucky taste sensation.

Tootsie Rolls are chewy and yummy. No one will be able to convince me otherwise. Vive la Tootsie Roll! Huzzah!

Don’t you mean “Vieve la Tootsie Roll”?

Vieve is right; the Tootsie Roll is not chocolate but merely a chocolate substitute / alternative. It has all the yummy flavor or chocolate but it lasts much longer and is without the mess. However, I do have to say that it is never a replacement for actual chocolate. I enjoy a Tootsie Roll when I would like a piece of chocolate but don’t want to deal with the mess or the upsetting feeling that inevitably eclipses the soul when you realize that you’ve run out of chocolate. However, unlike the Blow Pop I can’t say that I particularly like the Tootsie Roll when combined with a candy lollipop shell because once your done with the candy part I have really no desire to go on to something chocolatey.

It’s not chocolatey! Stop saying that!
November 14, 2001 at 13:32
Ho
It IS chocolatey! I’m eating one right now and it tastes like chocolate to me, so it’s chocolatey. Ptttthhhhhh!

It tastes like a wax-based whey product to me.

Oh! Wait! Look — it IS a wax-based whey product!

It’s futile to debate about whether a food is good or not. It’s like arguing about whether missionary or doggie style is better. It all comes down to personal preference. And, thank you Evan… VIEVE la Tootsie Roll!

Vieve can have the tootsie roll. I’ll take the real chocolate.

You guys can have ALL the candy… I’ll take the doggie style…

…yeah… I’ll still take the chocolate… =)
