How many licks does it take to reach the center of a Tootsie Roll Pop?

Fuck if I know! I always bite mine about 10 seconds into it.

I noticed that they claimed "approximately". You may find people with tongues as rough as a cat's or as smooth as a woman's breast, and differences in saliva that could account for a fairly wide spread. I usually bite into 'em once the candy is pretty much off, IIRC. I haven't had one of those things in years.

I had to google 'Tootsie Roll Pop'



I must agree - 1000 licks seems about right for the first course - then a little nibble ....

Stop the Holy See men!
