Ice lollies: ice-based sugary frozen sweet treat
Ice cream: dairy-based sugary frozen sweet treat

Which of the above is better?

Personally, I prefer ice lollies. They're gentler on the throat, and for those lactose intolerant, gentler overall. They're also more flavourful in general.

For me it depends. I like both of them, but I definitely can't have more than one ice cream a day whereas I could eat all the ice lollies/popsicles and be totally fine. There are also vegan ice creams out there so you can get ones that are lactose intolerant.

The thread could totally use a poll though.

Poll added!

Lol, for a second I was like "what the hell is an ice lolly" and then I was like "oooooh popsicles."

Ice cream is better than popsicles.

counterproposal: gelato is better than either
as sweet as ice cream while being softer and easier to eat

Ice lollies are a lie. They promise icy creamie joy, but they are naught but falsehoods.
falsehoods and c_orⁿs^yru_p

Jogurt all the way!

Haven't tried ice lollies, so can't make a fair comparison.

Based on what I know of them though, I'd likely prefer ice cream.

Counter-counterproposal: frozen yogurt is better than the other three.

You can also put ice cream on brownies and pie.

Mmm, there's nothing like a nice hot brownie with a scoop of ice cream on top of it.

Ice cream.

I have avocado ice cream at home.

It's amazing.

I like both, however if I had to choose it would be ice cream, as in a nice chocolate malt, because malts are superior to shakes.
As for an icepop, it would be a cherry ICEE®

What about Italian ices like from the lemon ice king

It is. It's vegan even, from the vegan shop around the corner.

It's with lemon though, and I found the lemon taste quite strong too, but still, goood stuff Besides, I like lemon.

I would think lime would be a better combination, then it's like guacamole. But usually citrus with avocado is good to keep it from browning (though I'm not sure if that would happen when it's frozen).

Ice cream has the edge I feel. Though there is much to be said for a gin and tonic ice on a hot day.

I like both but honestly id prefer an ice cream lolly

For my portable frozen treat I'll usually have some form of ice cream on a stick. What I really love though is a big ice cream sundae.

Mashed and stirred icecream.

Coffee is better, including ice coffees with cream

As a second choice a good creamy icecream

Gelato is gopd too

Frozen juices are okay

Ice lollies are just a disgusting mouthfull of sugar and water and a complete waste of time

I like them both, but on a hot day, ice lollies are the best imo.

lollies are for nerds
