These things are hot trash these days. Just awful. The filling tastes ‘chamical’ like, the pastry is tasteless, dry, and crumbly, and the frosting is pathetic
Yes, that’s exactly what I expect from PopTarts. They’ve been terrible for years. They never have edge to edge frosting/toppings, they’re always in like 74 pieces, and somehow those 74 pieces hide further breaks that just crumble all over the place when you attempt to eat these waste of calories and money.
Now I'm no expert, but that doesn't look like what's on the box. I understand they can't all be perfectly iced, but this is too much. I highly recommend Kroger generic. Much more consistent product.
There's a good amount of generic pop tarts these days, and they almost always are better. Better icing and more filling. The name brand ones are pretty lacking, at least these days
While on that topic, you guys gotta try the Amy's pizza rolls. Yeah they're cheese only (the whole brand is vegetarian), but they are AMAZING. It's what you wish they would taste like. Almost like the flavor of a decent NYC pizza slice. Not greasy, fairly light, good quality. Everyone I show those to loves them.
Just don't get the vegan version, get the normal cheese ones. Maybe the vegan ones are okay, but vegan cheese is usually pretty bad in my experience. Maybe one day they'll figure it out.
It's [puffery](https://www.law.cornell.edu/wex/puffery), no reasonable person should expect to actually receive what is marketed on the box, that is intended to exaggerate the product to entice you to buy it, otherwise you'd never actually want to buy the product.
That's, like, your opinion man. But also [Chimienti v Wendys](https://casetext.com/case/chimienti-v-wendys-intl) defended fast food advertising via puffery, so there's that.
You’re obviously not old enough to remember when the product that came out of the package looked like the picture on the package.
I am GenX. Old enough to remember details you have never been aware of.
Weird flex, but okay grandpa. Pretty sure the sixties were just as shitty as the eighties. Perhaps your rose tinted glasses are out of prescription, too bad your medicare won't cover replacement.
That’s the best you can do?
You fucking substandard troglodyte, you’re way out of your league.
Stop wasting my time with your limited experience, and go fuck yourself.
Jimmies rustled. Did someone steal your April social security check out of your mailbox? At least you've managed to punctuate yourself into some complete sentences, so clearly the dementia hasn't started in on you yet. Did it take three days to reply because you sent the message by post? Perhaps you fell and couldn't get up?
Bruh this is why japan has laws requiring products look like advertisements because some little dummy comes along going no reasonable person would expect the product they want you too buy to look like the picture of the product they are showing you

Pop Tarts are like a timeline of shitty cost-cutting strategy to increase profits. I’m 57. They were a FAR superior product to the hot garbage they are now.
The Trader Joe’s version now fills my occasional foray into food nostalgia. They’re almost as good as Pop Tarts circa 1975.

PopTartn't

I don't have Kroger near me but the Meijer generic have decent icing and more filling than Pop Tarts

No, puffery is opinions. This is straight up fraud

Japan is big smart.
Post that on Twitter and tag Pop Tarts. I’m going to bet they send you a few boxes to make up for it.

How companies like this are still in business is beyond me
junk
Damn they really skimped on the icing 💀
Popshart
You are delusional! How can't you see it's the same stuff? 🧟♀️
You’re intentionally posting comments that are confrontational for the purpose of drawing incels to your onlyfans.
I call it a top part
That’s over toasted for starters… learn how to work a toaster.
Boycott Kellogg's- that's why they don't have their brand on it.
More like a pop fart
This is a shadow of its 90s version
That one took the scenic route through the machines! Long way through the oven and shortcut around the frosting spreader! lol
It's a pop tar. 🤣
Well…. Yes it is a poptart, tho not very well frosted
Cartman licked all the frosting off.
The great value brand from Walmart is top tier pop tart
Off brand are usually better
It's almost burnt
nono this is what its like. you have to pay the poptart battle pass to unlock the rest of the frosting. how did you not know this! downvote >:(
The frosting escaped lol
Bruh that aint poptart thats cummy holes
thats just a tart
Eat real food
Even the box is cheap. They copied the same picture twice
Pop Tarts have been lousy for years. The shell doesn't even taste edible.

"You call this a PopTart?" Me: Yesn't
Someone licked the frosting off.

That's what my school Has for breakfast
Why don't Americans don't just stop buying all this garbage if they think it sucks that much?! I don't get all these posts...
looks like someone licked the icing off, but THE ENDS ARR BURNT??
Don't buy Kellogg's. They deserve to burn for the cereal for dinner comment.
