And do you eat that peal ( candy)
Or is it more like the wax in a laughing cow cheese?
Edited to fix title ( darned auto correct )

I bought these for my niece and nephews and had to try them first. Yes- you eat the peel but it's not all that good. The middle is the best part. They liked them okay but I won't buy them again (even though there is a coupon in today's paper).

Thanks for the review.
I was sort of imagining a taffy like peel. Guess not?

Darn, wish I'd read about these before I went to the grocery store this morning. I love candy and would have bought some to try.

I thought this was candy from the name, but found out it is actually a frozen thing. I don't know that it looks all that appealing to me.
However, this sounded like a great photo op!
"There’s also gonna be a three day Peel-A-Pop pop-up in New York this weekend with free giveaways and Oompa Loompas, though, whether they’ll be the fun ’70s ones or the mildly creepy 2005 ones remains to be seen."

My kids want them, too. I couldn't figure out what they were from the box. Bummer to hear that the candy part isn't good.

I have to go shopping tomorrow . I'm gonna look for them. They sound just disgusting enough that the kids might like them.

Isn't the middle part supposed to be ice cream? And then the edible candy "peel". They have vanilla/banana and vanilla/grape (I think). Looks.....interesting!
*edit: just googled and found 2 different blogs with reviews. One described the peel as "gummy-like" and the other said "gelatin-like". Hmmm.

Never heard of this. If it isn't chocolate, it doesn't come into this house.

These sound weird. If DH finds them, though, he'll probably buy them...he's a sucker for anything Wonka.

Sounds like a great summer treat for the little guys. I think this definitely qualifies as at least a one time buy!

I bought them for my girls. They ate the peel. Two liked them and one didn't. I couldn't bring myself to try one.

They aren't messy- well, unless you try to take the peel off with your fingers. It's a gummy type peel. You can either eat it with the middle ice cream part or you can peel it off using your teeth. Really does look like a banana. Just kinda weird tasting.
