    3 words: brown sugar cinnamon (no frosting) Oooops, that's 5 words.
    Those are the BEST ONES! Most people don't even know they exist. They can be hard to find unfrosted though. I used to always buy up a bunch if I happened to come across them.

    I don't really eat them much anymore because they're not filling enough to me to justify the 200 calories per tart. :(

    SHhhhh. They don't make a lot ot these and it would appear we are the only 2 who love them. I don't eat them either - because I want more bang for my calorie buck now. But they are sooooooooooooo delish.

    I prefer the unfrosted when possible too. I miss grape.

    The reason I don't eat pop tarts...when I was in high school I would sneak to the store and buy them because my mom never bought that kind of stuff (money thing not because she was super healthy or anything) and then I would eat the entire box. I absolutely love them, but I just know myself enough to know I can't eat just one or just one package so I would just rather not go there anymore. I am super proud of people who are able to keep them in their pantry and just eat one, but that person is not me. and by the way, those red velvet ones look AMAZING.

    and yeah, I wasn't allowed to eat poptarts as a kid, so I really did call my mom when I was in college to tell her I had one...snort.

    My Mom used them like this : " Here, gooooo!!!!" lol.......... and out the I'd goooooooooooo... lol......

    To follow my ice cream hating topic: Why all the hate for Pop Tarts? I'd love to hear why I shouldn't be eating two a day. My diary's open.

    -M

    Because a toaster strudel is far more magical... heat those up and put your own frosting on...

    not that I have had one since high school... but I really like them then. Never did like pop tarts.

    Unless you're making ice cream sandwiches out of them, you're all amateurs.

    I think I like you

    I love, l-o-v-e, LOVE the blueberry with white frosting. I haven't eaten one in years because I'd eat the entire box in one day. But all things in moderation. If I should be at someone's house who had them, I'd for sure indulge in just one. I wish you could buy just one.

    Chocolate Fudge Pop Tarts. Yum.

    They just don't do anything for me and use up too many cals... I'm hungry after I eat them

    I don't think anyone should cut anything out of their diet if it's something they enjoy, as long as they fit into your cals

    Yep, this. I am still HUNGRY after I eat them. So, that means I rack up way to many cals.

    S'mores pop tarts and a glass of milk. My absolute favorite thing in the world! It was most of my meals as a child actually...haven't had a pop tart in over a year though but I miss them now that I've seen this thread! Red Velvet pop tarts sound amazing! We don't get all that many flavors in Canada unfortunately...or fortunately I suppose...

    I love Pop Tarts. I'm over the moon that they finally brought back the Brown Sugar Cinnamon ones (I've missed them since my childhood! Why they took them away but left the lame ones I will never understand.) I don't eat them every day but they're a nice little snack for sure.

    Loved the apple cinnamon ones - so hard to find variety in Scotland.

    I have had the same box of pumpkin pie pop tarts in my pantry for 4 months maybe? they were really disgusting,

    but I love blueberry and smores.

    I used to take the blueberry ones and crumble them in a bowl with a little but of melted butter and then put it on top of muffins kinda like a ghetto streusel topping, no wonder I am attempting to lose weight now :sad:

    Because I will eat the entire box in one day. I can't fit that into my macros.

    My theory about people who LOVE poptarts is that no one in their life made scrumptious flaky pie crust with numerous delicious fillings......I'd never waste 400 calories on 2 dry cardboard pies when I could have a slice of sweet/tart homemade cherry pie! Poptarts just don't measure up!

    I used to love blueberry and brown sugar cinnamon, but I couldn't control myself and used to eat the whole box. Then I would feel like crap and STILL hungry. I have a very short list of foods that I do not even let in the house because I get too crazy and brown sugar and blueberry poptarts are on it. I can have the other flavors around for my kids because I won't touch them, but those are outlawed in my house. I wouldn't say I hate them more like I had to let them go.

    There's less sugar eating a doughnut. Why not start your day off eating 2 doughnuts instead of 1 poptart, there's less calories in them? Oh and these have to be the worst thing ever invented for a kids breakfast, come on now, really? Anything prepackaged that has a very long shelf life and filled with sugar isn't worth putting into our bodies. I'm surprised your not a diabetic eating two of these every day..lol

    hydrogenated oils.

    I'm partial to the partially hydrogenated oils.

    I looked for the red velvet pop-tarts this morning, but alas, there were none to be found. :sad:
