‘Tootsie pops’ are hard candy lollipops filled with chocolate-flavored chewy Tootsie Roll and were invented in 1930 by Lukas R. “Luke” Weisgram.
The company changed its name to Tootsie Roll Industries in 1969 and it is said that in 2002, sixty million Tootsie Rolls and twenty million Tootsie Pops were produced every day.
According to several tests it became known that it takes 142,18 licks for someone to reach the center of a tootsie pop!
