Alternate spellings of lox would be great. Couldn't remember for the life of me that it was an X!

I'm British and would call that a lollipop, not a lolly. I'd only call an ice lolly a lolly. Wonder where 098 is from...

Just to chuck in my own 2p. I'm from the UK and have lived in several cities and would definitely call this a lolly not a lollypop.

Lollypop sounds either old fashioned or babyish to me, like my nan in her 90's and my nephew whose three might say lollypop, but my own kids (aged 6 to 12) and everyone else I know would say lolly.

Not that it made any difference here tbf, I tried lolly, wasn't accepted so added pop and it was, raised an eyebrow and moved on.

I'm from the north of England and I've DEFINITELY heard lolly a lot... used for ice lollies, chupa chup lollies, you name it. Honestly don't know if I've really heard people use 'lollipop' all that often.

Yep same, I've lived all over and it's almost always lolly. Lollypop would be a word used by little kids that gets shortened to lolly as they get above about five.

Confused by the comments to be honest but I guess unless you have kids it isn't a word that comes up often. I have three young kids so it comes up quite regularly in my house.

I think probably people leaving comments here are from a slightly older generation and are remembering their own childhoods when perhaps the word was in more common parlance.

My son-in-law is Swedish and Norwegian and they have it around Christmas. My daughter informs me it is truly awful. On the other hand, he can't stand grits. I guess it all depends on what you grow up eating.

we have lange vingers (literally long fingers, lady fingers) and kattentongen (litterally cat's tongues) Which do look alike, both long. but definitely different. They are flat, and not so puffed up ( and I believe not coated in sugar on one side.

Two different cookies. but I must admit, kind of hard to see in this picture which is meant. (Looking closer at the picture it seems there are flatter like cat's tongues but áre covered in sugar on one side.. I guess the only way of knowing is to eat them and see how airy they are ;)

We called them lollipops in NY when I was a kid. When I moved to the Pacific Northwest, I heard kids calling them "suckers." I think we would have been beaten up if we'd called them that in NY!
