Advantages: Fun filled fruit refreshment.

...Aaaahhhh the 'Twister' perfect on a hot day at the beach or during a stroll through the park. It's just a shame there haven't been many of those days this year.... again.....Still that's Britain for you! And I did chose to live in Newcastle.... The twister has to be my all time favourite ice lolly and as far as I can remember this has always been so. I was amazed to see that this immensely popular ice-cream treat wasn't a ciao category recently, so I got it added and here it is! ******************** About the Twister ******************** The Twister was first introduced to the public in 1982 and apparently it is consistently a top seller. According the the 'chill out zone' (a kids website) the Twister is the fifth most sold hand-held ice on the Wall's website following Magum Classic, Magum White, Callippo orange... Read review

Advantages: five flavours, variety, fun, cool-down
Disadvantages: a bit unhealthy!

...If you have not tasted this tongue-twisting tingling sensation, you really do not know what you are missing... ***** I remember eating Twister lollies on the hot and sticky days of Summer to cool down when I was younger, and I can safely say they worked! One 80ml Twister lolly provided about twenty minutes of edible fun, a nice refreshing drink, and a calming cool-down! So much enjoyment came from eating Twister lollies! People indulge on the treat in many different ways. Me, well I like to lick off all the vanilla ice cream first! It has such a sweet taste to it, a soft and creamy sensation. So smooth and light, it wakes up the taste buds, informing them that it is time for a fantastic treat! The second part of the Twister I eat is the pineapple and lime rim, or more commonly known as the 'green bit'. By this stage... Read review

Advantages: Great special effects
Disadvantages: Story line was weak

...In geography we have been learning about climatic hazards and my teacher suggested that if we hadn't already seen this film that we watch it as a visual aid to help us for the exam. Being the conscientious student that I am, I asked my dad if he would hire it from Screen Select (as that's where we get most of our DVDs). Twister arrived on Tuesday morning so we settled down to watch it that evening. ~ A little bit about tornadoes ~ Most tornado activity is found in the USA. The air movements here are unique as three air masses meet causing lots of tornadoes to occur. The area is known as Tornado Alley. A tornado (commonly known as a twister) is a violently rotating column of air in contact with the ground that originated from the base of a cumulonimbus cloud. The film is based in Oklahoma, which is an area within Tornado Alley... Read review

Advantages: It tastes soo good
Disadvantages: there isnt one

...There is officially nothing better than having a wall;s twister on a hot day. THE LOOK Spiral of colour obviously resembling a twister. Green red and creamy white. All twisting down along the lolypop stick ( starts drooling...) anyhow, this ice loly is soo good i think im going to ahve to go and buy one now. I think that the colours complement eachotehr, sounds weair for an icre cream but hey your not exactly going to eat a lolly that looks like the dogs leftovers. THE SHAPE Like a big long cylinder , spiraly as you can see and kind of bobbly because of the way the different parts spiral. I like it. HOW DO YOU EAT IT!!!! Well isnt this an interesting topic..YES it really is. Its like a cadbury's cream egg. how do YOU eat it? Well incase your wondering, you can lick out the ice cream first and then have just the ice lolly... Read review

Advantages: A miniature version of the original classic.
Disadvantages: None!!!

...Ok, so I know the weather hasn't been particularly nice the last week, but I'm afraid my kids have developed a taste for ice lollies, so here comes another lolly review!! The product I will now review are "mini twisters". ~~~~~~ THE PACKAGING ~~~~~~ The box is rectangular in shape slightly larger than most of the other boxes in the freezer at my local Asda store, hence the reason my son picked them! There is a picture of one of the afore mentioned lollies springing across the box at an angle with pieces of fruit seemingly bursting out of it, this is to highlight the fact that these lollies now have added fruit juice, there are juicy, tangy lime wedges and succulent, vivid red strawberries, all very appealing to the eye. The rest of the background colour is a mixture of subtle citrus colours that seem to bring the box alive...
