Otter Pops
In 1995, the company planned to replace the “Sir Isaac Lime” flavor with “Scarlett O’Cherry” until a group of Orange County, Calif. 4th-graders created a petition and picketed the company’s headquarters.
After meeting with the children, company executives relented and retained the Sir Isaac Lime flavor.
*When I first started dating my boyfriend, I brought up Otter Pops and asked if he remembered them. It has come to my attention recently that this staple of my childhood is not familiar to everyone. I think it may be a coastal/regional difference? I can’t remember a summer when we didn’t have what seemed like hundreds of these crammed in the freezer. Anyway, the boy started rattling off the names of all the Otter Pop otters, all nonchalant-like. “Really and true” (as my father would say), that’s when I decided he was a keeper. “YOU KNOW ALL THE NAMES OF THE OTTER POP OTTERS?!” Love. Done deal. That, and he’s a champion in the sack. Score!

To have and to hold.
This is the lustful lifestyle catch-all of a presently derelict intellectual, beset by unemployment and wanderlust, interested in objects and their histories, the things humans make and covet and buy and keep and wear (and eat). I'll keep the thoughtful, research-intensive approaches to art history, visual anthropology and material culture to some other forum; here, I'll just point and say "ooooh."
