they’re not even half frosted anymore

    So here, in the comments, is the wisdom you’re looking for…you actually want toaster strudel. It is a similar vehicle but instead of powdery-dry preserved bread choke you get fluffy, crispy pastry around your filling. Instead of dry frosting you get yummy glaze that you get apply to your specifications.

    The downside is that you have to keep it in the freezer until you’re ready to eat - it is not shelf stable like your pasta but it is a superior morning coffee accompaniment.

      the problem is that I didn’t eat toaster strudel growing up, so even if it is a superior coffee accompaniment, I don’t drink coffee and I’m eating the poptart for nostalgia mostly 😆

      I was wrong about the poptarts, the Kroger brand, the Aldi’s Millville brand, the Trader Joe’s brand, and the “Nature’s Path” organic brand of poptarts that I tried all were not properly frosted … so I just assumed the Poptart brand poptarts were the same - just a sign of the times. But low and behold, yesterday I opened a Poptart brand poptart and no, the Poptart brand has perfect frosting. My whole post has been a lie.

      More pricey than a pop-tart though.

      I prefer an actual danish over either of these, myself, though.

        I get that, but even if you import them, cannibalism is generally frowned upon.
