The Hole In Your Lollipop Stick
A lot of people like to use the lollipop stick as a whistle when they are done eating the candy. It was not meant for entertainment! They actually created the hole to make it easier to pour the candy into the mold. Some of the candy seeps into the hole and hardens there to keep it from falling off.
