I just read another belief similar to this:
Tootsie Pops had pictures printed on the wrapper, and one was an Indian shooting a star. It was the belief of many of my friends, family, etc. that you could bring those to a store for free Tootsie Pops. Honestly, i can't disprove the theory-as kind grocery workers apparently thought it was cute to here my quick and exitable explaination, and gave me one anyway.
A childhood belief about sweeties
