    Pop-Tart?

    I think this must be a cultural phenomenon. I've never eaten one. :(

    I've never seen anyone else eat one. I've never seen anyone buy one. But I know that people do eat them according to my picture box.

    Next time I'm in shops AH. I will buy then proceed to eat one.

    When I was younger they were popular for a little while in Ireland but don't seem to be anymore. There's loads of different and way better flavours in the states so I've had a good few!

    They are incredible......all the people that used to waste their time toasting them as well and trying to prise them out of the toaster when finished.

    Best served cold.

    I lived on them when I was a bum living in Maine.

    Tried them once. That was enough.

    I did once, many moons ago, and I thought they were bloody awful.

    I tried them years ago when they first came out. Very meh, just like a big fig roll imho.

    If you have any candles in the house, eat that, that's what a pop-tart tastes like.

    My nanny used to buy them for us for when my mam wasn't looking. I had one. They were absolutely vile - even as a kid I thought they were muck.

    Ahh nooo, they're so much better warm! Not so hot they melt in the toaster but warm enough so the inside gets melted.

    I'm craving poptarts now OP...thanks!

    Ireland gets around two flavours of poptarts so maybe that's why everyone hates them....try the hot fudge sundae, smore or cookies and cream in America and it's a different story!

    We pestered my mother into buying them a few times when they first came out in the early 90's. Have never bought them myself, nor would I.

    Was at the Letterman show last year.

    He'd never eaten one.

    Got one of the show runners to go buy some (and a toaster) and broke his Pop tart virginity.

    Do they taste like a bitch?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,934 ✭✭✭Renegade Mechanic


    I hated the first one I ate. It was raw though. I got a clip round the ear and was told to try cooking the next one. I fell in love. Id ate thrm till I burst.

    Why, yes, I have!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,129 ✭✭✭Arsemageddon


    I had them for the first time in about 25 years a few weeks ago, got them in one of this discount shops. I didn't think it was possible to cram so much sugar into something so small.

    I tried one once. Only ate a corner. Blergh.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,065 ✭✭✭Miaireland


    I had them years ago whe you could easily get them in Ireland. I think it was Strawberry ones and Apple ones. I can't say I was a fan of them. The pastry was too thick.

    Just three seconds ago. They're alright. Nothing magical. American food is sweetened to hell.

    Lived on warm (which always ended up roasting the mouth of me) chocolate ones when I was younger.. who am I kidding if I can find them these days I'll happily munch a box :pac:

    The plain apple ones were good when I was a kid but they seemed to vanish and the rest were all rotten.

    They're so hot they're cool!

    When I was a student pop tarts and potato waffles were the basis of my diet.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,342 ✭✭✭fatknacker


    They came in chocklit flavour and strawberry flavour when i were a lad. Both overly sweet and pure rank in tasting. Also burnt the tongue right out of my mouth. I tried them raw too. I still remember the horror.


    Are they still going? Have they added new flavours since?

    They're def the worst flavours! Haven't seen any new ones in Ireland I'm afraid....only in the states. And those ones are much better.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,212 ✭✭✭libelula


    Strawberry ones are absolutely unbelievable. So so good. Im not allowed buy them, so I'm not.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 585 ✭✭✭Crumpets


    Had a chocolate flavoured one once. It was alright but I wouldn't go mad for them.

    No just a regular tart.
    Tarts are ridiculously underrated.

    Tea and tarts.
