Here's an interesting fact: "Popsicle" is actually a trademarked name for a frozen treat on a stick. The term originates from its creator, Frank Epperson, who applied for the trademark after accidentally inventing the treat in 1905 when he left a cup filled with powdered soda, water, and a stirring stick outside overnight on a chilly San Francisco evening.
