Daniel Craig popsicles: Finally, the meaning of 'sex on a stick'?

Delmontedanielcraig_lIn honor of National Ice Cream Week in the UK, Del Monte Superfruit Smoothies has sculpted a limited edition popsicle in the shape of Daniel Craig’s nude torso. The frozen treat — said to come in blueberry, pomegranate, and cranberry flavors and be under 100 calories each — is the result of a poll of more than 1,000 women, the majority of whom wanted the image of Craig, emerging from the water in Casino Royale, immortalized.

Two questions: Could you actually eat this popsicle in public? (Like the model in this photo, I don’t think I could face Craig — or anyone else — when I licked those abs.) And if America were to offer such a delicacy for what is allegedly the 25th anniversary of our National Ice Cream Month — July! — whose form should it take? I’d vote for sticking with Craig’s 007. For starters, it’s kind of awesome how his torso glistens when he begins to melt, as though he’s wet from the sea. And there’s less guilt when you can think of it as an iconic character instead of an actual person.

Your nominees?

    Sorry Mandi, I stand by my previous pop-watch post re: Zach Quinto.

    OOOh — I’m first — I would LOVE to get me some of Wolverine — maybe a little bit of Ryan Reynolds — and to top it off, a bit of Robert Pattinson. I’m not asking for too much am I?

  • BrandonK

    Could I get just the torso? Craig’s face is even more homely in frozen fruit snack form.

    it’s pretty surprising that the popsicle bears a striking resemblance to daniel craig. toy makers, take a lesson from del monte the next time you make action figures!
    as long as they don’t make a popsicle out of dr. manhattan, i’m up for treating myself to a variety of frozen superheroes!

    They may be saying that’s Daniel Craig, but me-thinks Rene Auberjonois (aka Odo from “Star Trek: Deep Space Nine”) should be reading up on some copyright laws.

    I think a cone-bra-wearing Madonna would be most apropriate!

    There needs to be a Richard Armitag frozen treat. Like…..now

    Jim James of My Morning Jacket. It would be like making out with him (kind of) without getting a hairball in your throat.
    Also, Emile Hirsch, Anderson Cooper, Zachary Quinto…

  • Megan

  • Theresa

    Yum! That is totally awesome how his chest is glistening.

  • Winona

    I’m a little disturbed – it’s more Han-Solo-in-carbonite to me. Although a blueberry flavor is definitely a plus.

  • Christine
