Desire for Go-Go Improvement Not Limited by Species
—Beacon, NY
“Watch this,” invited a happy repeat Go-Go Pops™ customer at the Beacon
Farmers Market. Then it happened. No one expected it, not even the
most open-minded Go-Go lovers. The bird, perched on the shoulder of her
fellow Go-Go enthusiast, nibbled the edge of the Watermelon Go-Go Pop. Then
she ate some more. Then she went for the stick, prompting a firm but gentle
lecture on sharing. What form of advanced, exotic raptor was this? The
answer is in dispute but this reporter suspects it to have been the fabled Norwegian
Blue given its fearless approach to frozen delight.
Go-Go Pops™ Improves Sales by 40%
Go-Go Pops™ second weekend improved on what was already regarded
as a triumphant debut with sales up nearly 40%. Was it the sweltering
heat or word of mouth? “My friend told me about you guys and
I just had to come check you out,” was a sentiment repeated throughout
the days at the Cold Spring Farmers Market and on the waterfront at
the Beacon Farmers Market.
“How is the Wild Blueberry-Lemon?” asked a curious Go-Go wannabe. “Guaranteed
to knock your socks off,” answered co-founder Greg Miller. Pointing
to her sandals, she replied, “But I’m not wearing any socks.” “See? It
worked already.” Happy Go-Go converts came back not once, not twice,
but 6 and 7 times during the day. Some tried to sample them all
and others, smitten by that first Go-Go moment, placed loyalty over
adventure and wanted the same flavor again and again.

Go-Go Pops™ Debuts at Cold Spring Farmers Market
—Cold Spring, NY
Go-Go Pops™ sold its first pop at 9:05 AM EST at the Cold Spring
Farmers Market. Rumors of palate delight made the rounds and
lines formed quickly. However,
the identity of that first pop remains a mystery. Asked about the much
anticipated first sale, co-founder Lynn Miller, apparently caught up in what
has been described as a state of Go-Go zen said simply, “I don’t remember.”
“This is God’s food,” said one ecstatic customer of his banana-chocolate pop,
“I can die now.” The pops started flying out of the coolers. Watermelon,
Cantaloupe-Ginger, Cherry Chunk, Orange Tamarind and Honeydew-Lemongrass were
all unleashed on the Go-Go initiates. Many children seemed attracted by
the lovely translucent orange of the Cantaloupe-Ginger but were dissuaded by
their parents who feared the barrage of flavor would be too much for Junior’s
growing Go-Go. But persistent children won out and wowed their friends
with tales of flavorful adventure.
