    Mr Freeze ice pops - anywhere stock them???

    Been getting back into ice pops recently, I'm absolutely addicted to them but I badly miss what I consider to be the apex of the ice pop world - the *Mr Freeze* ice pop.

    I can't find them anywhere.

    What I'm after are the longish 'medium' ones, maybe just over a foot in length. I'd be surprised if the the jumbo ones are still available, but I hold out hope.

    I must've gone through thousands during my youth and early twenties, but our local shop turned into a Londis and they vanished, being replaced by a fridge full of Magnums and Calippos and the like.

    I'm having to buy 'Planet Ice' ice pops from Jack Fulton (3 packs of 20 for ?1) but they're the very small ones, and though they're pretty decent, tangy and sweet, their size means you can go through them like a knife through butter. AND, they just don't taste as good as Mr Freeze (though, having said that, the modern-day Mr Freeze might've changed in flavour - anyone know???). ASDA have some decent ones, too, but they're still the small ones. There are some long ice pops out there, these horrible animal themed ones that are sugar-free, with a horrible, hard, glassy ice, and they are absolute turd.

    So, to reiterate, I'm just wondering if there are any supermarkets or shop chains that stock Mr Freeze ice pops (I'm in Leeds, btw). I know they MUST still be around, as I see the occasional discarded wrapper when I'm out and about.

    Any info would be welcomed greatly.

          F*ck me. They do a 150ml 'Ginormous' one, which is said to be very popular in France.

          My jaw just dropped, and I am slavering.

            I haven't seen these around for ages! The Cola and Raspberry flavours were epic!

                Oh yes! Used to stock up on them after school for the long walk home in the summer months!

                  Yeah but there was a drawback which was that the plastic sleeve used cut the sides of your mouth like a knife when u sucked the last of the juice out of them. Once the coldness of eating them had stopped numbing my mouth it felt like someone had given me a Chelsea Smile!

                  They were gorgeous tho. I dont think I even had a favourite flavour because they were all so nice!!

                          Funnily enough, I was at the Bingley show and we parked up at the in-laws and wandered down to the show.
                          coming back up, the wife was on about how she randomly fancied an ice-pop. So we called in to the shop on ferncliffe road and low and behold Mr freeze Ice Pops.
                          Haven't had one since school. Bought a fist full (the joys of disposible income) and wandered back to the car.

                            God, I thought this thread had died a death but thankfully it's been resurrected!!!

                            Leeds seems to be dry of Mr Freeze ice pops but a jaunt to Wakefield not long back revealed a booze offy on the main stretch that had a few Mr Freeze ice pops in (I bought three and they were STILL gorgeous!) I occasionally pop by Keighley/Shipley way, will deffo check out the offies there, cheers for the heads-up.

                            PS: Cheers for the website link, Steve, I will be placing an order forthwith!

                              Aw, it's still called Mr Freeze in France?
                              I wanted it to be called Monsieur Noel or something!
