Description
There were two kinds. The "Pac Man" was a Pac-Man shaped bar that was yellow and lemon flavored and the "ghosts" which were red and were cherry flavored. Both were on sticks and both had gumballs for eyes. Came out in the early 80's.

I lived in Arizona when I was little and I got these when the ice cream truck came around. I like these and the ones shaped like Bugs Bunny.

I remember having the Pac Man Popsicle as a child in the summer in Nova Scotia. I'm sure I would have one everyday. I wonder what company use to make this Pac Man Popsicle. If anyone knows please leave the company name in your comment. Thank You, Paula. Nova Scotia

I think Popsicle brand itself made the Pac-Man pop. I used to get them individually at 7-11 in '84. I only ever saw the lemon Pac-Man pops but apparently there were cherry flavored Ghost pops as well.

I loved the Pac-man popsicles, they were kind of creamy not a straight ice popsicle. I would love to find something similar. Every once in a while I will taste something similar but not quite.

I've found a Spongebob Squarepants popsicle at 7-11 and from ice cream trucks in Toronto. It seems to be the same as the Pac-Man pop (as least as well as I can remember). The same creamy sort of texture that Lisa mentioned - plus with Spongebob you get TWO gumball eyes!

I love these popsicles and still ask about them all the time. The thing is I don't remember the red ghost? Where I live in St.Catharines, Ontario we only had the purple (grape) ghosts...and they were to die for!!

Gosh Lisa hit the nail on the head! Loved the pacman Popsicle for the fruity flavor and a little creaminess. The ghosts were good too! I'm sitting here after finishing a Popsicle shaped liked the childhood Popsicle staple I gre up on, the missle! It was red and yellow with some orange because of the mix of colors and it had a creaminess to it too! I've been wondering if they are still around. Sure do miss some of those nostalgic things! :-)

Are you interested in buying coin operated horses or spring rocking horses??? They are sold on Ebay. Most spring horses are made by Blazon, Wonder, Flexible Flyer, and Radio Flyer. Feel free to buy as many as you like. Good luck!!! :) Ebay account required.

I remember taking change in my parent's jar and run after the ice cream bike as a kid for a purple gost. Sometimes a clear piece of thin ice would slide off and release the delicious creamy goodness.

I found something similar. Almost identical. Cyclone by popsicle seems to be a combo of the lemon pacman and the cherry ghost. Almost the same texture that I loved as a kid. So they are called cyclone and come in a yellow package.
