* 364, according to a handful of engineering students at Purdue University. They devised a lickig machine and the machine came up with 364 licks.
They also did a human research consisting of 20 ppl, and they came up an average of 252 licks.
But, you know how it goes...
Boy: Mr. Turtle, how many licks does it take to get to the Tootsie Roll center of a Tootsie Pop?
Mr. Turtle: I never made it without biting. Ask Mr. Owl.
Boy: Mr. Owl, how many licks does it take to get to the Tootsie Roll center of a Tootsie Pop?
Mr. Owl: Let's find out. One... two-HOO... three..
Mr. Owl: Crunch!
Mr. Owl: Three.
Narrator: How many licks does it take to get to the Tootsie Roll center of a Tootsie Pop?

562 depending upon salt content in your saliva and the linger times of each suck.
Also the execution of the sucking motion, are the twists clock wise, counter clock wise, is it held in the mouth for a period of time?
If held in the mouth is it directly on the tongue and the roof of the mouth.
If its held at the side between the cheek and the teeth, the walls of the tootsie pop will wear down unevenly towards the tooth side since it is exposed to more enamel, than the soft moisture saturated cheek.
All and all 562 licks.
