People's Pops?

You might not know it to look at it, but this is a chain store:

I just did a google search and found out they have eight locations, and are also found in eight stores in Manhattan, and another eight in Brooklyn. (They must like the number 8!).

They claim to be made from "fresh, local fruit".

Local fruit? What fruit is grown locally?  Do they sell ginko-flavored pops/ices?

And what makes them "people's" pops? Hmmm? Their web site says:

"people's pops started as a one-day experiment on a hunch that the world deserves a better ice pop."

Their web site also has stars, and their East Village location opened on May 1. That's people-ish. Still, I think there are other things the world deserves first. Priorities are sometimes messed up in the East Village too.
