Buttermilk is what's leftover after churning the cream to make 
butter.  It can also be "made" with additives/bacteria to sweet 
milk.  Personally, I find buttermilk disgusting, although my dad has 
been known to drink it.  Mostly, though, people use it to cook with--
buttermilk pancakes, cornbread, etc.

As for "buttermilk pop" I have *no* idea!
