    I bought a box for a party. My kids were all over the leftovers. But we don't count them as breakfast. I treat them as any other sweets, like cookies. Once in a while won't hurt anything.

    Note, I'm not against sweets in the house. We almost always have at least something around. I'm just choosy about what I decide to spend my money and calories on :wink:

    I have a teenager, and poptart for him is like a food group. And is a form of money currency at high school....

    I ate pop tarts a couple of months ago. Then I saw that its 400 calories for one sleeve whereas i thought it was 200 for a sleeve. Never eating those delicious evil pastries again.

    it's easy to be disciplined if you are never tempted.

    Agreed. Big difference between "can't" and "won't". But, that being said, it's also wiser to know yourself and remove the temptation if you know you won't be able to walk by the pantry and not raid it.

    I love Pop Tarts. A warm cinnamon frosted one with a scoop of vanilla ice cream is yummy.

    Actually a lower calorie decent substitute are the Special K Pastry Crisps - 100 cals for the sleeve. Their brown sugar cinnamon ones taste almost exactly like the Pop Tart only less dense, if that makes sense. Also tasty crumbled up over butter pecan ice cream...
