    So I grew up with these popsicles from Safeway that were made to look like pieces of watermelon. It had pieces of chocolate as the seeds and the watermelon part was not overly sweet. It smelled fragrant and tasted pretty damn good. Here is an awesome picture I drew in MS Paint for illustration purposes.

    Did anybody else have them in the past? Better yet, does anyone know where I can find them NOW? I checked a bunch of Safeways to no avail. I'm open to other brands as long as the watermelon concept is similar.

    ^:up: I was beginning to think that I imagined them or something.

    I contacted safeway via their Product Request Form: http://safeway.ca/ProductRequest.asp

    They sent me a generic response, but maybe if they get enough requests they'll bring the product back. So all you lurkers googling for watermelon popsicles, please contact Safeway!

    I found them last year in Greece! I mainly found them at gas stations in Kos, Santorini and Mikinos.
    They are so nice. I've been trying to find them every since

    My mother and I went shopping at the Coop in Vesenaz in Geneveva and I found a water ice packet which was shaped like watermelon slices and stated the flavour was watermelon and had dark chocolate chips in and it had a light green bit at the bottom acting as the green skin. Could this be the same one or simillar? The watermelon fkavour was spot on. The brand was Pluto I think and it was a dark blue thin packet.

    They have something similar now by Nestle called Fru Popz. They're pricey and not as good as the Safeway ones.
