How many licks does it really take to get to the center of a tootsie pop?

Answer 1

better question...how many people acually lick the tootsie pop...how many just suck it (and not remove it from mouth)...things that make you go....hummmmmm ...lol

Answer 2

Scientifically: You have to do is measure the amount of saliva you produce per lick, measure the volume of the Tootsie Pop, find the amount each lick your saliva takes away from the pop, and divide that much by the total volume of the Tootsie Pop.

It has been scientifically proven by professional tootsie roll lovers, that it takes 127 licks to get the the middle of a tootsie pop, where the tootsie roll center is located. However, those who did not see the center after 127 licks, couldn't stand the pressure, and bit the tootsie pop, causing the center to be visible. I hope this answers your question.

Answer 3

Answer 4

Well,
That depends on who is doing the licking and where you think the center is, whether it is when you get to the soft stuff or when you get to the stick. Either way I am to impatient to find out.
