"Nobody's gonna want the whole damn ice cream truck if you're handing out the popsicles for free!" -- Never Been Kissed (1999)
Oh King of Pops, I love you so much I popsicle stalked you all the way to another state! Having started coming to Charlotte for business every other week it seems, I figured that I might as well get my pop fix while I'm here (I can't exactly transport them from Atlanta without meltage occurring).
Anyway, each trip, it hasn't worked out that a cart has been convenient to my meetings or needing to drive back to Atlanta. This time, they just so happened to be about 5 minutes from my hotel about the time I was arriving from the ATL (yay me). So I drove past my hotel's exit and stopped off at the Meeting Street Market and found that nifty rainbow umbrella and met Neil.
Unable to decide from the list on the chalkboard (I didn't want any flavor I could get in Atlanta - and yes, they are different), I went for 2 pops. I bought the Fresh NC Peach (I had to compare the NC peach to the GA peach) to eat immediately and then the Orange Cream for later (not knowing we would eat so much at dinner).
I would say that the peach pops are almost indistinguishable - however being a Georgia Peach myself, I have to side with the GA pop. But let's be honest, you cannot go wrong with a King of Pop - EVER.
KoP NC keeps expanding and expanding and I urge you all to try them and find them around town and support your local businesses. These guys make a quality product and I just cannot get enough - before I did anything else when I came into town, I found KoP. "Nuff said.
I heart KoP. #loverofthepop
