    My British husbands unit was deployed to a US base in the Middle East, he brought home a sack full of the 2 packs in so many different flavours, they gave them out at breakfast & no one else liked them. My 12 year old son took them to school & sold them for 50p a pack. 😂 apparently the cinnamon & s’more ones were the biggest hit.

    Although I am in the UK, i was shocked to find there were only 3 poptarts flavours available! I always thought that there had to be more but they just weren't sold in my local shops, but no! Wow.

      It's funny how I can see what people in the comments section are zoomers. We millenials were fed these for breakfast, cuz like Joe mentioned, they were marketed as breakfast food in the 90s. It's because they pumped them with vitamins, thus making them "healthy", the same way sugary breakfast cereals are.
      My mom would literally wrap up a brown sugar cinnamon pop tart for me to eat as breakfast on the way to school if we were pressed for time.

    “Just get a regular toaster” have you seen the sizes of flats in London? Not out of desire but of necessity, he has a combined toaster and stove, super cool. Had he had two separate appliances, he would need to get rid of the sink. This reminds me of the biggest mystery in Bridget Jones: how was she able to pay a central London flat on a publicity assistant salary.

    Here in America they're still 100% marketed as a breakfast item. On their website it says, "Pop-Tarts® toaster pastries are a delicious and easy treat to look forward to. The perfect toaster tarts for home, snacktime, or an on-the-go breakfast!" Their FAQ also says they were first called "fruit scones" so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.

    I remember the UK’s Pop-Tart game being much better in the ‘90s. Something worth pointing out to our American friends is that UK junk food in general was better in the ‘90s. At some point towards the end of the decade there was a big push (presumably driven my some EU legislation) to remove artificial flavours and colours from everything. While undoubtedly better for our health it nevertheless ruined the junk food scene, and there is a lot less choice these days for many products.

  • @teneagles
    @teneagles 11 месяцев назад +1

    Color isn't the reason companies use bleached flour. Flour is 'bleached' with chlorine, and chlorination changes the structure of the starch so that the protein is weaker and the ability to absorb sugar and liquid is greater. Thus, you can dramatically increase the amount of sugar in a baked product and it will still have good loft and an open crumb structure. It also enhances shelf life, through its ability to hold onto water.

    The dough in the unfrosted Pop-Tarts is actually different than the frosted ones.

    Joe, toaster ovens do so much more that toast pop tarts or bread, so if one is going for maximum benefit of counter space, the toaster oven beats the plain old toaster.

    My years in high school pop-tarts were my breakfast. Usually unfrosted/frosted strawberry & cherry.

    The only real way to eat Pop Tarts is to put them in the toaster. They taste too doughy out of the package.

    Ok so brown sugar and cinnamon best when toasted... however smores is great both untoasted and toasted...but blueberry, cherry, raspberry and strawberry are good cold

    i always kind of wished they had the amount of frosting they're advertised to have. that and more jam would make them really delicious (though maybe they're trying to straddle a fine line so that parents keep buying them for their kids for breakfast)

    It’s the welches style of Concord grape that has the almost fake flavor. If you hunt around for fresh grapes long enough you’ll find some that taste like grape soda.

    only one supermarket sell poptarts in aus and they only have 3 flavours.
    They tried labeling them as breakfast food but got in trouble because the sheer amount of sugar almost excludes them from being classed as a candy

    I ate the Brown Sugar cinnamon pop tarts during college for breakfast, lunch, and dinner so often that whenever I smell brown sugar and cinnamon I get PTSD flashbacks of Calculus.

    I think that the taste changes when you toast Pop-Tarts. I used to eat them untoasted when I was a kid, but the few times I have picked them up as an adult, I tried them toasted. They are a lot better when toasted! Some flavors I don't like when untoasted, and I do like when toasted. I used to hate Brown Sugar Cinnamon when I was a child, but when you toast them, they are super good.

    I think the pop tarts are more expensive for the U.S. because you guys are based in L.A. pop tarts 8 pack in my area (in California) cost $2.79 they're really cheap.

    I know that all the 90s pop tarts tasted better because they used smuckers filling and the frosting was different and tarts much thicker. All the pop tarts post 2000 taste like cardboard in comparison.

    Funny Joe mentioned the hot fudge sundae ones not being good breakfast since for the longest time in school I'd start the day with a 2 pack of hot fudge sundae poptarts and a coke cherry zero from the vending machines.

    I never thought there was a debate between toasted or untoasted. I think it's fairly unanimous that the toasted ones are better. The true debate is Pop Tarts versus Toaster Strudels

    A few months ago I bought a box of pop tarts for the first time in many years 10, 15, 20? I can't even remember the last time I had them, but for some reason I saw them and grabbed one. Imagine my surprise when there were 4! packs in the box, not just 3. I had no idea they added an extra pack sometime in the last few decades. And yeah, I just assumed they were for breakfast.
