    I ate *maybe* 2 packages of Poptarts so far for the year? I dunno, I don't have a love for them anymore.

    I recently saw the oatmeal ones in the store. Are they any good?

    I hate pop-tarts. I don't care if you eat them :p but personally I think they're gross. I prefer pastries or turnover or even toaster strudels if I'm having dessert for breakfast ;)

    I LOVED the sodium-laden egg/bacon/cheese toaster strudels. Sooo tasty. Now I make my eggs 'n' bacon :P

    I came in for the pop tart bashing, but staying for the COPS episode.

    I think they're good, but my son doesn't like them because there isn't enough frosting. I eat the mapley brown sugar ones with honey flavored frozen Greek yogurt.

    Dont like them, they are boke inducing

    I'd rather go to a bakery and get my calories worth

    If im going to go into a diabetic coma, i'll do it with something that I enjoy the taste of.

    Really? 40 g of carbs is going to put you into a diabetic coma? 15 of them from sugar.

    Since most people cant stop at one, one isnt the problem (apart from that they taste pretty disgusting to me) its the whole packet

    But then again you're talking to someone who blacked out an hour after eating sweet things from a sugar crash then got referred to a dr.

    Even if i did like them i wouldnt risk the crash and burn, unless i was perfectly healthy and never suffered from a metabolic disorder.

    40g of carbs is over half my daily allowance as per MY dr's guidelines for me.

    Er, this lady right here does...*eyerolls*

    Some taste nice, some taste naff....just like olives and marmite and all those other things we like to hate...it is personal preference. I used to hate on them because of the particular flavour I tried...now I don't.

    *shrug*

    I open the box and keep a sandwich bag in it. So I open a pack, take one out, and the other goes in the baggie for next time. I had never been able to just eat one until recently.

    that is actually a really good idea!

    I ate a box the other day. Just choc fudge ones though.

    OK I've never eaten a Pop Tart and I have no intention of ever doing so after reading the huge list of ingredients! I try and stay off processed food anyway, and when I see stuff like this designed to be part of a staple diet it brings it home how the powers that be really don't care that much about what crap we eat provided it makes big companies rich and doesn't kill us overnight. Sorry, I just find them a massive turn off. Bet they taste like chemicals too once you're used to eating more healthily and readjusted your tastebuds away from man-made s**t. But, if they are eaten as an occasional treat, why not.

    3 words: brown sugar cinnamon (no frosting) Oooops, that's 5 words.

    Those sound so good right now, with the frosting though.
