Today's topic, gentle readers, involves an alleged infraction of dining etiquette that was brought to my attention by my husband. It came as such a surprise that I had to post here to ask you to weigh in.
He told me that I eat popsicles wrong. More specifically, that I unwrap them wrong.

| The pop in question |
His argument:
By unwrapping from the top down, one winds up with a convenient plastic-covered holder for said pop.
Her argument:
Top down leads to a sticky mess on the wrapper which is then transferred to the fingers/clothes/dog. Unwrapping from the bottom and throwing away the plastic gives one a clean stick to hold.
So what is your verdict, ladies and gents? Have I spent the last so many decades incorrectly skinning my pops? Should I hang my head in shame? Inquiring eaters want to know.
