    I'm all about the strawberry/blueberry unfrosted.


    Oh what you don’t LOVE sour patch pop tarts???

    In my “old” age, I enjoy those more healthful cereals. I always had a thing for Honey Bunches of Oats (with or without almonds). Just don’t tell me they aren’t actually decent for you...

We typically had a tupperware container full of blueberry (naked), chocolate w/ chocolate frosting, cinnamon w/ frosting, or strawberry w/ frosting. Occasionally, we would get the wild-berry, but honestly the taste of a toasted blueberry with melted butter on top was ace in the morning.

      They are definitely better warmed up a bit. I've had chocolate and cinnamon within the past year and even warmed up they tasted flat.

      Ugh, as if they weren't unhealthy enough already. As for them being dray, that's why you gotta have a glass of milk to go along with them and toasting them makes them less dry.

      Aren't they all basically just desert/junk food. And they are far far from the only product that has gone way overboard as to number of varieties.

      Sour patch poptarts sound just as unappealing as Sour Patch cereal. I love Honey Bunches of Oats though. I eat the almond variety, used to eat the cinnamon clusters variety but can't find them anymore.

        Pop-tarts should follow the lead of the greatest cookie ever, the double stuf Oreo; where my double stuffed Pop-tart, Kellogg?


        and by the way, are Oreos a cookie, or a sandwich? lol

              We’d get the Strawberry/Cinnamon/Blueberry box from a wholesale grocery spot growing up. I always liked cinnamon especially if you actually toasted them. With a glass of milk. Mmmm

              You guys eating without heating them up?

              Defend pop tarts
              I go the opposite way, it's been awhile but you certain flavors in the freezer for 30 mins and they're fire! Wait, they're.... ice? Does that work?

              idunno whatever, they're good

                For some reason this reminds me of being a hungry kid and my parents would leave me home alone and I'd go to town on toast with butter and sugar. Punishment be damned, it was worth it

                  Sugar? Or cinnamon sugar?

                  Because cinnamon toast rocks. I can't imagine having just granulated sugar on it though.

                      And for kids?

                      Agreed. The good majority of breakfast foods are basically just huge amounts of sugar meaning that if you eat it, you're just going to crash later when the sugar wears off.

                      It's why so many more doctors, Dr. Oz included, are like just skip breakfast.

                            So I just found out on top of that he uses a 3.5x scope with thermal that is ****ing impossible to use on the smaller maps in close up battles.
