An American term for a large lollipop — the kind designed to last a long time and keep a child occupied. The name is directly descriptive: it's a lollipop so big that sucking on it could theoretically take all day. The term is used in a straightforwardly literal way in US candy culture, though it can also be used humorously or with faint nostalgia. It belongs to the vernacular of American childhood treats alongside jawbreakers and candy bars.
