a creamsicle is a pop sicle that is creme and orangish colored.

they call the LE a creamsicle cause it was painted creme/orange

An orange and vanilla ice cream bar on a stick by Popsicle (brand name). I think the bar was named "Orange Creme". Cremesickle was a modified version of the name as the colors appeared on the LE cars.

We always called it a creamsicle. That was in the fifties, when I hung out on the curb and waited for the truck. One of the trucks broke down on our block one day. Free ice cream for all for a few hours.

Want me to explain "Grasshopper" the mystery green and white one?

Posted by: vsg914 Oct 30 2004, 02:52 PM

That's easy.

Grasshopper= phantom

Grasshopper - another sweet reference. A desert pie served at many chain resturants. Also a Keebler cookie.
Oh and some say a 914 out there somewhere.
