I’ve eaten SpongeBob popsicle my whole life, & it was always perfect with the GUM BALL EYES. Whose bright idea was it to switch to chocolate eyes? They need to be fired! Why would you put chocolate with something fruity? I hate it. & I won’t be buying this product until you put the gum ball eyes back. Idc if I’m grown. Y’all ruined an important part of my childhood, & my child hates the chocolate eyeballs too.

NO TO CHOCOLATE EYES
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the best popsicle on earth truly. I’m eating one as I type this but the GUMBALL EYES. Added additional flavor . The chocolate throws off the products taste and is not a fun feeling when you’re eating a punch flavored popsicle then tasting cocoa. I feel robbed of the experience of eating one .

A complete disgrace
The reformulation is absolutely heartbreaking and unpleasant. The gumball eyes were without question the best part. My childhood was going to the ice cream truck and ordering a delicious SpongeBob classic that tasted full of flavor with fun and yummy gumball eyes. Now for nostalgia purposes I wanted to buy some. So I did and opened it and was absolutely horrified. What did this GODAWFUL company do to RUIN the best popsicle ever made? They put DISGUSTING and SHAMEFUL chocolate smear for new eyes ...

Great Popsicle- But Needs Gum-Ball Eyes!
I love these SpongeBob SquarePants Popsicles but recently found that they have changed the iconic gum-ball eyes into chocolate eyes. This has seriously diminished the quality of the product, including but not limited to the taste. The gum-ball was an extra sweet treat, in an already sweet treat. It was a staple in many peoples childhoods, and I believe it should continue to be so. Please seriously consider changing it back to the original. I have not bought this popsicle since trying the chocola...

no gubball
I'm not just angry about the nostalgia factor, The new chocolate eyes are just BAD. It doesn't go well with the ice cream at all, and spongebob looks weird with the smaller eyes.

gummed ball
the gumballs were like the best part man,,, u could sell separate versions for choco & gumball eyes but gettin rid of gumballs entirely is a rlly bad move. if u change them back b4 the hysteria abt the popsicles dies down u could totally profit off the nostalgia

Missing Gumballs
I used to love these, but the biggest reason I would get them was for the gumball eyes. I bought one recently but the eyes were little chocolate specs. Aside from the gumballs tasting good, it was an internet meme to pull out the popsicle and the eyes were always a little silly. Is there a petition to sign to change it back?
