How many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsie pop?

Dammit. Came to make the exact same comment in almost the exact same way...

It's amazing that people still remember this ad.

I don't, I've never seen the ad, i don't know what is it about which is why I don't get the joke. All I see is some sort of dumb kid with a lollipop ruining their own photo of an owl. Something tells there is a reason and that this is probably not as dumb as it looks but I lack the context.

Thanks, I've searched for the ad now that I know what it was about. I wasn't even born, and this product didn't exist in my country so no wonder.
