Blow Pops
These colorful gum-filled lollipops became popular through The Charms Company, founded in 1912. They were introduced in 1969 as the first bubble gum-filled lollipops in the world and went on to become the company's best-selling product ever. Today, Blow Pops is owned and manufactured by the Tootsie Roll Company. It's not hard to guess where the name comes (blow = indicates bubble gum; pop = short for lollipop).
