Are Craft Sticks and Popsicle Sticks the Same?
Craft sticks and popsicle sticks look the same.
Craft sticks are made for crafting.
Popsicle sticks are usually food safe.
That said, you can use a popsicle stick for a craft. I just would not use a craft stick that on food. Especially if it is coated with anything.
