Any Way You Lick It: Maple-Bacon LollipopThough it might sound like a sick joke, it's true: The folks at Lollyphile have created a Maple-Bacon lollipop for the pork lovers among us. Before you start
gagging, you should know that these suckers are fully sustainable and organic, made with only the finest cured bacon and Vermont maple syrup. Based in San Francisco, Lollyphile strives to produce “the
most interesting and unique lollipops in the world,” and laughingly provides the disclaimer “definitely not kosher” for their popular meat suckers, which have completely sold out. Also on the Lollyphile menu: Absinthe suckers.
But what about kosher Jews who want in on the fun? Why no chicken soup lolly with specks of matzo ball? Or how about Gefilte fish with horseradish? Applesauce with latke bits, anyone?
We are issuing a challenge, Jewcy readers: What Jewish-inspired flavors should Lollyphile try next? And would you eat them?
Related: Last year, the flavor experts at Jones Soda released an all-kosher holiday season soda series which, ironically, included a Christmas ham flavored beverage.
If I'm positive, can I keep my ovaries?

ok, i'll bite...
"What Jewish-inspired flavors should Lollyphile try next? And would you eat them?"
1. Knish. No.
2. Gina Gershon. Oh, yeah.
Tzveee
Non meat alternatives
1. Challah French toast with grape jelly.
2. Felafel with hummus, tahini, and hot sauce.
3. Matza brei with cinnamon sugar.
4. Baron Herzog Cabernet Sauvignon.
5. Apricot danish w/ decaf.
6. Poppy seed bagel with shmear and nova.
7.
Tuna whiskey down. Wait, someone already said Gina Gershon.Would definitely try 1), 3), or 4).
Faith
I'm going to second Tzveee
On the matzah brei w/cinnamon sugar.
I'll add, pastrami on rye with mustard and latke with applesauce.
stacey.
absinthe lollipops?
really? i kind of want one. i bet they taste pretty bad though, like absinthe itself. probably not as bad as maple bacon though, ewww.
my additions:
-charoset.
-noodle kugel
-black and white cookie (I guess more of a new york thing than a jewish thing?)
Izzy Grinspan
amen
Stacey, charoset lollipops are pure genius!

How many licks?
1. Cabbage borscht with flunken. (Or beet borscht, for those who prefer it.)
2. Herring and onion. For that old-school synagogue kiddush experience.
3. Schnapps. See #2.
4. Manischewitz wine. Ditto.
5. Cholent. (Meat or vegetarian.)
6. Sufganiyah. So the Sephardim don't feel left out.
And with apologies to my late father who inexplicably loved this dish, my #1 NON-recommendation: Petcha. (Jellied calves' feet with garlic. Ew ew yuck ew.)

Holy Cow, Awesome Suggestions
But no interest in a Lox flavored pop?
And I'd be vaguely curious to try a Dr. Brown's Cel-Ray soda flavored pop.
Apricot danish with decaf is pure genius, btw, and I'd be all over the borscht sucker, too.
OH! And a Slivovitz plum brandy pop would be killer!

Kosher Holiday
I
am as much a lover of sugary heaven as the next sweet tooth, but it
may be sometime before i will willingly include a bacon lollipop in
my list of <a href="http://www.kosherexpeditions.com/">Kosher Holiday</a> treats for me and my family. I think that
goes way up there on my list with the candied frogs and fried
crickets. Sorry.

new idea
Day at the Ball Park: chili dog, nachos, peanuts, cheesy pretzel, pizza, beer flavored.
This is genius. Who's with me?
I AM!
