Otter Pops but I don't remember actually liking any of the flavors
Seconding Otter Pops. But I had totally forgotten Alexander the Grape until you said it.
I'd call them ice pops. Favorite would be purple/black assuming they're "grape^tm^", because I'm a trash person. Second would be red, third would be orange. Blue would weird me out so I wouldn't try it. It's probably raspberry, which I'm not a fan of. Finally, I'd assume green was sour apple or lime, which I also don't like. Though if they turned out to be watermelon then I'd be missing out
Wait, nobody just calls these popsicles? (Central US, was a kid in the 90s) I loved all the flavors except the light yellow one which was banana sometimes depending on the brand.
I am assuming that this is a hyper-local thing to wherever you were raised.
Popsicle is a brand that's over 100 years old and makes frozen treats on sticks.
When I was a kid we were all perfectly aware of the Popsicle brand, and we still called these things popsicles. Like how every tissue is a Kleenex, or every adhesive bandage is a Band-Aid.

Same as you, except early 2000s, and banana is actually the best flavor

Freezies. I'll take a blue!
I'd call them "Wassereis" and green is best
This right here is the correct answer because Waldmeister.
Waldmeister is nice but I like the red ones a bit more.
Waldmeister... Eine Geschmacksrichtung, die ich komplett verdrängt und vergessen habe... Danke für die Erinnerung, gibt es überhaupt noch Dinge mit Waldmeister? Schon ewig nichts mehr gesehen.

Zooper doopers but the colors are different

Oh hey they are bussy pops (white)
Bussy 🤤
Zooper dooper. Where the other Aussies at?
I'd do the cola flavour because it's fucken amazing
Cola always the first Zooper Dooper to go. It's the only thing my family can agree on.

Yep Zooper Dooper was the first thing I thought of when I saw it. Cola is pretty nice as well.
Classic Aussie summer treat

Freezer pops, blue!
I'm shocked to learn that thees aren't called freeze pops everywhere
They're called freeze pops. And green is the best color, but red is the best flavor
ice pops! and strawberry / pink is the bomb
Icey pops. Mystery Green was my jam
In Italy we usually call them, polaretti
Everyone knows clear/white (which had a cream soda flavour) is the best. Why is it not in the picture? I can only assume because the person who took the picture already ate all of the clear ones (cause, you know, they're the best).
PS: we called them freezies.
We called em Chilly Willies. There was a brand sold in my area named after the penguin character (Chilly Willy) associated with Woody Woodpecker. So as kids we loved that and just called any brand of them by that name.

Best color was orange IMO.

Lotta people here not going for red first. That just means you won't get them because they'll be gone by the time you get to 'em
Freezies! Orange is the best, followed by red and then white/clear.
U people are mad, cola flavor ftw!
Flavor ice. And I'll kill for the orange one.
That's the brand that was ubiquitous when I was growing up.
Purple is by far the best, but eat too many and it'll turn your poo green.
