Popsicle, for sure, but, more broadly, the whole range of cheap factory-made
frozen ice and ice-cream confections, most of them pretty horrible by he
standards of real ice-cream countries, like Italy. But then the British
were largely denied confections during the war, and, when they reappeared,
it was all a great flash of something wonderful, like Hitchcock and American
westerns to the Cahiers critics and film-makers. British affection for such
stuff has lasted a long time (Pevsner was writing this twenty years later).
