... that the baker Duff Goldman from the Food Network television show Ace of Cakes has an ice cream line deal with Blue Bunny to release his own Bomb Pop flavors?

I am the expander and nominator. I messed up the nomination somehow. Joe Chill (talk) 18:05, 27 August 2011 (UTC)

Fixed it. I think ~~"Nominator"~~ "Author" has to be changed to your name in the template field. Froggerlaura (talk) 18:26, 27 August 2011 (UTC)

Had a read through, and my issue is that the Duff Goldman line doesn't actually say they're going to be Bomb Pops. In fact, the only mention in the article of Bomb Pops is that they were Duff's favorite Blue Bunny line as a child. As such, it's probably better to have that information on the Wells' Dairy, which ruins your hook and because the article is only just over 1500 characters, will reduce it below the minimum size for DYK.

- I totally misread the source, but I did find two interesting facts and expanded it after removing those sentence.

... that Sugar Free Bomb Pops have been reported as good for people with diabetes?
... that The Walt Disney Company made a deal with Wells' Dairy to release Buzz Lightyear Bomb Pops?
... that Bomb Pops have a national day in the United States? Joe Chill (talk) 20:09, 29 August 2011 (UTC)

Good job on saving the nomination. Article now meets the criteria, and I think that the national day hook is the best out of the new three. Miyagawa (talk) 20:55, 29 August 2011 (UTC)
