Wether you are a natural competitive bodybuilder, roided out gym rat, marathon runner, cross-fit enthusiast, or just someone who strives to look good naked, its hard to deny the overwhelmingly strong presence that Pop Tarts have established in the fitness community. These delicious toaster pastries have become relevant in the world of nutrition as chicken and brown rice. They have been the topic of much debate in all areas of nutrition; from weight loss to bulking, to insulin spiking, to preferred carb sources, etc.

My surprise however comes from the missed opportunity and profit that Kellogg's has shunned itself from. How can the advertising and marketing research teams over at Kellogg's not have caught wind of the undeniable presence their pop tarts have established within the fitness community. Imagine if they were to release a Pop Tarts line specifically targeting the fitness community. All they would have to do is simply reduce the fat and throw some whey into the mix, design a cool new packaging/wrapper (preferably black), and utilize some stupid play on words that tie into fitness. For Example: they could call the new line "Pump Tarts" or even better they can simply incorporate the play on words into their line of flavors:
Bicep Blasting Blueberry!
Shoulder Smashing Smores!
Rhomboid Rippin Rocky Road!
Calf Crushin Chocolate
Pec Punishing Peanut Butter
Hot Fudge Hamstring Sundae!
and so on and so on

just some food for thought brah

    I used to love pop tarts but I can't tell you the last time I ate them! For me they are just not worth the calories because I'm still hungry after I eat them:cry: Also the packaging is deceptive as one tart is a serving size but they put two in a package! You know you are going to eat both of them!

    I'd nom my way to fitness!

    I think Pop Tarts are one of the treats I miss most. It'd also be awesome if they could make a gluten-free Pump Tart...

    Even better, why not forget about Kelloggs and come up with your own recipe, then do a Kickstarter campaign to get the company off the ground... I'd pledge for sure!

    Interesting post, you did a great job on this. Love the names!

    Hmmm....I lso seem to recall another recent pop tart post touting that they are loaded with ground up pig parts (gelatin.) Pop tarts must be highly talked about in fitness arenas to see two posts in one week.
