There is only _ **one** _ thing strawberry Pop-Tarts are good for. No, I haven’t done it…yet; yes, it is on my bucket list; even acquired a toaster to be used just for that purpose. I also have the bright-yellow rubber rain suit, just need to acquire the enormous sun hat…& the rope to hold the fire extinguisher **s** (plural, which I do own). If you don’t know what I’m talking about, I’ll just have [Dave Barry](https://www.davebarry.com/misccol/poptarts.htm) explain it to you

I want the standard strawberry filling, but I want the frosting to completely cover the top, side to side and top to bottom. Just run it through an enrobing machine for the frosting.

Millville Toaster Tarts (ALDI) do have more brown sugar and cinnamon filling than Pop-Tarts, but nowhere near 5X. They weigh more (maybe 8%) and the crust seems lighter and flakier.

And I’m with you on the BS&C vs. any other flavors. They can keep the fruit…and the S’Mores…and the even weirder flavors. The only choice I want is frosted vs. unfrosted.

Do Kellogg’s even make peanut butter Pop Tarts? Because they probably should if they don’t already.
