Haven’t bought name brand Pop-Tarts in years, but have occasionally picked up Toaster 'Betes or whatever the off-brand versions are called.

Noticed a ‘sale’ on the name brand and got conned into buying them. They’re now smaller, have less frosting, and have way less filling. The damn things were so flimsy that two of them snapped trying to take them out of the toaster.

If you get a craving for some nice sugary betes for breakfast, stick to the off-brands. They’re now higher quality than the name brand.

The future is stupid.

    Y’all, Poptarts were always garbage in a mylar pouch, only made popular by marketing.

    The fact that the Toaster Strudel exists is evidence that pop tarts are a kludge of a bastardization of a good thing, so far removed from the real deal, as to be indistinguishable from it. They started enshittified, and only had one way to go from there.
