Orange Maid is my first choice if I thirsty but if I need chocolate it has to be a Magnum Classic.

Solero, but actually ice cream crunchie is the best ever. Haven't seen one for a while though...

When I first read the question I didn't think it meant ice-cream lolly until I realise what my options were! I was thinking most people would have voted chubba chubs but I quite like drumsticks!

I will crawl back under my stone now!

Wow....cider lollies? Never heard of them. My life feels SO incomplete.

I love Solero (which I voted for), and I also like Mini Milk. I used to have Strawberry Split a lot as a kid. I hate Magnums more than ever since the competition, as I ate about 50 in a week!! I also like Twister. For me, when it's hot enough for a lolly, chocolate is never on my agenda. I eat chocolate ice cream in winter but that's tub stuff.

I like the Gelatelli Almond version from Lidl - a 'poor man's Magnum'. They are half the price of Magnums, and actually far superior in my opinion. It's a shame they aren't on the list.

You missed off the best one, Zap lollies are great. But I don't know if they still make them, but a technicoloured swirly lolly that tastes of toffee has to be the winner.

If not cherry brandy or apple cider for me please!

Yep, Zap lollies still exist, just seen one at the newsagent - but bought Callipo instead.
