    To me, and this is strictly personal, Pop Tarts would not be worth the calories. I don't know why I don't like them, but I don't.

    Man, I'm craving a pop tart now! I swear with all this working out I actually feel I've earned one....getting them at the next grocery trip. Strawberry with icing..look for it on next weeks food diary!

    Pop Tarts are like everything else. Always better with ice cream and beer

    I have to disagree with you on that..lol. Poptarts are already really sweet for me...if I teamed it up with ice cream, I'd throw up. And the beer...I would think it would make it extra bitter (which is fine if you like really bitter beer).

    I like IPA with my ice cream

    2. Things

    Hopefully most of you have seen the new pop tart commercial where the pop tart couple go into the "photo booth" to have their picture taken, and its really a toaster. Lol. F'ing hilarious!!! Even though my lady thinks its mean.

    Also, please tell me I'm not the only one who would break off all the edges of the frosted pop tarts to eat it last after eating the rest of it. It's like eating candy. God please tell me I'm not alone. Anyone. Anyone. Damn I want a Pop Tart now.

    Yes I eat the edges last too. Especially if it's the chocolate one and ESPECIALLY if it got a little burnt in the toaster.

    I actually stock piled the Limited Edition Hot Chocolate ones from this past December. I have a box and a half left. I can't squeeze in the calories all the time, but oooo! when I do! Those are my favorite!

    We have a a box still in the cabinet. I haven't tried them yet; I hoard the limited edition ones.

    I don't like them, either. They taste artificial to me, are unpleasantly dry, and too sweet. I didn't get fat eating Pop Tarts, though, and don't consider them a comfort food.

    I could eat an entire container of artichoke and jalapeno dip and loaf of bread in a sitting, though. I have my own food demons!

    I love pumkin stuff, but the Pumkin Pie pop tarts, not so much, just so/so, not worth the calories.

    I haven't had a pop tart in years! I didn't even know they had flavors other than those that are fruit based...

    If I could have one and not obliterate my other meals with it then I would but it is so high in sugar and a heavy carb so I cannot fit it in without eating mostly meat the rest of the day. 200 cals per pop!

    I love the crust on pop tarts. My husband likes the fillings, so we share. Pop tarts are kinda rad like that.

    I used to take the crust off mine too and feed it to my ex, he loved anything crunchy/bready. Same with pizza crusts, I just handed them over to him when I was done. :laugh:

    I haven't had a Pop Tart in years - and now I find out there are Red Velvet Pop Tarts!

    Has anyone tried the Red Velvet Pop Tarts? I saw them at the store the other day and I'm wondering if they're worth a damn. How about Confetti Cake? Pumpkin Pie?

    the pumpkin pie ones are great...so are the gingerbread ones! :bigsmile:
  • Omg... I can't believe how many different kinds of pop tarts you have!! That photo of them all stacked on the shelves blew my mind!
    I love poptarts but in the UK we have like 2 flavours and you have to look really hard amongst the other cereals in the supermarket to find a small amount of them!
