Why do they only put one kind of Pop Tarts on sale? Every once in awhile there is a special Pop Tart sale display and I always think, oooh, because it is a good deal. It's usually about 3 bucks for a box of 16 pastries. So if I want a couple Pop Tarts, that's like 37.5 cents. I figure that's pretty good value.

But it's always the same kind. Strawberry filling with the white frosting. They're good and everything. I usually buy a box when I see the sale. But I'd like to have some other varieties sometimes.

I am not a huge Pop Tarts consumer but sometimes over the course of a morning I just like the ease and simplicity and general tastiness of a couple Pop Tarts, or as the Indians called them, maize.
 
It's good value. A couple Pop Tarts are pretty filling. I have those and maybe a banana - I don't need much more to get me to dinner.

What's a banana cost these days? 20 cents? We're looking at 57.5 cents.

Pretty tasty too.

Yeah, no, I don't apologize for my Pop Tarts.

Yeah, no.

They're not all sugar. The first ingredient listed is wheat flour. Okay the next three ingredients are all sugars (glucose, fructose, dextrose), then there is vegetable shortening, then icing sugar.

But 1 pastry has 15% of your daily value of Folate. Since I always eat them in pairs, that's 30%. A couple Pop Tarts and I barely have to think about Folate any more.

Plus they've got some Riboflavin, or as the Indians called it, maize.
