I tried picking up a box of 200y/5 popsicles instead of my previous 400y/6 popsicles and lemme tell you despite being similarly "vanilla ice cream in a chocolate shell" content, the difference is extremely apparent.
the latter allows for much more consistent, smooth bites that maintain structural integrity of the popsicle, whereas the former has a disappointingly jarring transition from crunchy outside to squishy inside, right before the entire popsicle falls apart onto the plate you're using
value: sometimes there's actually a difference
