OMG!

This one time, at band camp, I bought some organic, naturally flavored strawberry pop tarts (Nature's Path brand) because they were on sale and I thought they would be crappy like most healthfood copies of nonhealthfood but they are totally awesome. :!: :!: :!: :!: :!: :!: :!: :!: Better than regular but also more expensive even on sale.

Actually this was just the other day and not at band camp at all.

Also, Surly is an enormous teddy bear, y'all.

I don't remember ever eating pop tarts. I know I've had at least one in my life, but I can't remember whether it was edible.

A bunch of chemicals combined together to make a semi-tasty but incredibly unhealthy breakfast.

It's like a sweet biscuit(s) or crackers kind of, with jelly in the middle and icing on top. o.O That would be my best explanation.

Those stupid enough to get severe burns are those that Darwin felt Nature would gradually eliminate...

Not so much survival of the fittest, as elimination of the thickest... :wink:

I don't know very many people that actually eat them out of the toaster anyways. Most people as far as I can tell, eat them straight from the package. :P And er, I never heard of the the story above.

I thought they were supposed to be toasted in a toaster, hence the 'pop' part of the name? But I suppose it's safer eating them cold. Add those stories were probably ten to fifteen years ago, when they first arrived in the UK. Children where whipping them out as soon as they popped, biting into them and the sugar spurted out, usually onto their arm.

May I re-establish what a cute little teddy bear Surly was mutated into?

Awwww. Look how adorable he is when he rolls his eyes.

Anyway, back on topic: Poptarts, right? I don't like them with frosting, only straight up for me. And always toasted, ALWAYS I SAY!

Ugh, have you ever tried a Poptart warmed in the microwave? Extremely gross, it makes the filling stuff cook.
