    Can someone please explain something to me?

    Calories in Unfrosted Brown Sugar Cinnamon Pop-Tart: 210
    Calories in Frosted Brown Sugar Cinnamon Pop-Tart: 210

    How does Kellogg's do this??? Have they developed a calorie-free frosting? If so, could you scrape the frosting off and use it as a no-calorie sweetener for your coffee?

    Do they short the frosted tarts somehow to make it come out even? Hard to believe they'd have two production lines for brown sugar cinnamon yummies, so maybe they just chop a little off the bottom or something?

    Or...or...ARE THEY MAGIC?????

    I had the best ice cream the other day. It ruined all other ice cream for me forever and that includes previous favorites of mine such as haagen dazs dulce de leche, ben & jerry's cinnamon buns, and talenti's sea salt caramel.

    Actually, I think it ruined all other food for me forever....EVEN POPTARTS.

    Who else is imagining what this would taste like on a S'mores Pop Tart right now?

    Thanks for the tip, OP. I went to Ollie's outlet and bought a stash of Sugar Cookie.

    Went on a hunt last night for the elusive Red Velvet ones, don't think my area has them. Did find and get: choc chip cookie dough, sugar cookie, pumpkin pie and got the old standard, brown sugar

    Thank goodness for the higher calories to include one as a treat!

    They only made one type of Pop Tarts I liked - apple - and have discontinued them. F*** that frosting crap.

    Right now they have a limited edition "Apple Cinnamon Muffin." I'm pretty sure it's just the apple poptart with the cinnamon topping they put on the oatmeal delight.

    Yeah that's about it and they're delicious.

    The Walking Dead is on tonight. Nothing goes better with Zombies than Pop Tarts and ice cream. The perfect way to end your weekend! :drinker:

    or watermelon

    Meh. If you're gonna go the fruit route, I'd go with pear, Granny Smith, or grapes personally. To each their own :drinker:

    I'm glad I'm not the only one who's put this much thought into it.
