Frosted blueberry, heated and buttered and nibbled slowly. ---

Thats strange, we have three flavor packs in our stores here in Iowa. ---

How big would a grocery store be if it had every flavour/ variety of every product on the shelves? ---

Chocolate all the way. I have tried many of the test varieties. Jolly Rancher Green Apple is surprisingly good. Others I’ve tried with mixed opinions - A & W Rootbeer, Orange Crush, Jolly Rancher Cherry, Vanilla Milkshake, and Hot Fudge Sunday. ---

Unfrosted strawberry. Toasted with the edges a little extra brown. I break each one into six pieces. Drink with cold water. Anything else is too sweet. Now I want some. The frosted ones are too sweet to me. If I see any other unfrosted ones at the store, I’ll buy them, but strawberry is usually the only flavor I can find. One time at Big Lots I found a box of unfrosted guava. I guess those did not go over well in the general market. They were pretty good. ---

Frosted strawberry, cold. I usually have my Pop Tarts uncooked. Moving a bit outside the original question; Cinnamon Roll Toaster Strudels heated up. Yum! ---

Frosted blueberry, straight from the box. Sadly, the blueberry flavor is starting to disappear from our local grocery shelves. My second choice, brown sugar cinnamon is still readily available. Whew! ---

Blueberry and cherry are tied for my faves; and I rarely toast them, just eat 'em straight up. ---

Unfrosted strawberry is the only pop tarts I will buy. I’d try unfrosted blueberry if I see it in the store. Frosted pop tarts are too sweet for me. I always toast pop tarts. ---

I don’t understand NOT toasting Pop Tarts. The little extra-toasty edges are the best part. Years ago, my then-bf had a roommate who would toast them and then put them in a bowl and smother them with ice cream. ---

Okay, this thread convinced me that I needed to get some… toaster strudels. But where the heck do you find them? At my supermarket they weren’t with the pop tarts, and they weren’t with the refrigerated cookie doughs/cinnamon rolls/pastries in tubes. I couldn’t think of where else they might be, so I gave up. What is a strudel-deprived guy like me to do? ---
