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

Answer 1

Hi Tanlaask,

This answer comes right from Tootsie Roll Industries:

A group of engineering students from Purdue University recorded that their licking machine, modeled after a human tongue, took an average of 364 licks to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop. They tried the same licking test on 20 volunteers and found that the average licks to the center were 252 licks.

Answer 3

It really depends on the size of the tongue doing the licking, the diameter of the tootsie pop, the amount of saliva involved in the lick, and the temperature of the air at time of said licking of the tootsie pop.

Answer 4

we need to take into consideration the thickness of the tootsie pop, its exact ingredients, the air temperature, and whether the person is taking light licks or really pressing his or her tongue into the tootsie pop.
