a lolly bag is a common thing in AU. It’s a bag of candy. It can also be caramel corn, so it’s really just a bag of treats.

In reply to mikeUK. Your passion for Freddo is unyeilding, and I respect that. We now approve Freddo. But Harry Potter's way cooler, we can agree on that right?

In reply to Jonny.

Freddo is basically a frog face cast in Cadbury’s milk chocolate. You can get caramel filled ones too. These things are fairly ubiquitous over here man. You need to get down with the Freddo.
He’s NOT related to Harry Potter family of chocolate frogs, predating the first HP book by several decades. Internet tells me he was Australian originally, which explains his presence in this bag of ‘lolly’

In reply to mikeUK. Why is Freddo named Freddo AND NOT FREDDIE??! Seriously though, is he like Elmo over there? In the states, Freddo just ain't a thing, I'm afraid.

Dude. Freddo is a FROG. Don’t diss Freddo! You just don’t know, man. Also, this bag of candy looks amazing, I love gummy/choc mix. Why can’t I get this in the UK
“Lolly, in Australian and New Zealand English, a piece of what is called candy in American English or sweets in British English.” -I did not know that.
