Part of the irony of Unfrosted has to be the media tour that Jerry Seinfeld is on, where the interviewers try to ask him serious questions about his childhood relationship to Pop Tarts.
"I didn't have a salad until I was 40." So true! My mother's idea of a good meal was cut-up chicken pieces boiled to death in hot salty water, soggy canned green beans, jarred sweetened applesauce and a glass of whole milk. I didn't have fresh vegetables or fruit until I was out on my own. It was years later I realized my family was too poor to afford fresh produce and my mother hated cooking!
And yet the meal you described is still healthier and better for you than most people get today. The food wasn’t made with high fructose corn syrup and chemicals, and most people weren’t morbidly obese.
So true . In the other hand , it was a way of eating . Our “ salad “ was iceberg lettuce with blue cheese dressing on it , and that was only on a night at some supper club where they had beer cheese soup with popcorn in it . I😊 was little but I remember.
@@kph2858 You got blue cheese dressing? Ooh la la! I was in my late teens when I finally realized that all salads weren’t just iceberg lettuce with vinaigrette and some croutons.
Can I ask why Americans did not know how to cook, and these packed non-food products started to appear? When I go shopping I still see a lot of non- food products in the food sections that I haven’t seen those anywhere except here.
Both my parents worked in the 60’s and tho we had a garden the can opener in our family of six saw a lotta canned green beans during the long winters. I was 23 and living on the West Coast before tasting an avocado.
I was gonna say just that. My hypothesis:” Mr Seinfeld, I’m gonna set up a mic on your shirt. Jerry- Don’t bother, you’ll hear me just fine! There’s plenty of mics in here!”
Looking back on his TV Show, Pop-Tarts were all over the place. On his kitchen counter and in his cupboards. He also would pull them out of a bag, like he had just gone grocery shopping, and then proceeded to stick them up on his shelf. The one time that he sticks a box in the cupboard above his microwave, then he turns around, has an epiphany, and then spins around, opens the cupboard, grabs the box and proclaims to the camera, "I can't believe I got the low fat!!" 😂😂
I feel like a lot of y'all complaining don't realize that this is an EXTENDED interview. Interviews that air on TV are like 5 minutes and heavily edited to be tight and concise. This is like the full convo, so there's gonna be gaps and missteps. Calm down and stop being so critical. I'd love to see you speak with another human being PERFECTLY for over a half-hour.
Sir, it all comes down to relating to your guest. . .This guy doesn't. . .But, he obviously thinks projecting his somewhat "prissy" attitude makes him interesting in some way. He's kind of annoying, and that's why many people are critical of his "style." And it's NOT about being "PERFECT", it's about being more "real" and not trying to project an attitude that ends up interfering with the flow of the conversation. And you're wrong about TV. I spent 35 years directing "live" TV newscasts and interviews. It's not about being "perfect", it's about getting out of the way and enjoying the flow of an interview that your guest reveals to you. You just pick up on where your guest wants to go and help them get there. Because THEY are the show. . .NOT YOU!!! The best interviewers understand this.
@@BluesImprov I honestly can't think of a better person at CBS to interview Jerry than Rocca. he's been in the comedy world for 25+ years now. I feel like he relates to him fine and never seems to have an attitude to me. but to each their own.
@@alramone1 Do you have children i.e. a daughter? I would presume you don't. Good one, alramone1, "zoomer!" Your comment is rather presumptuous and hurtful.
My Girls, now in their 20's, knew a hurricane was coming when I stowed in Pop Tarts "just in case." Wife & I always made sure they had "healthy foods" but, they (Pop Tarts, not my kids) were shelf-stable and had enough enriched what-ever to make it after a storm :-)
My mom and dad and uncles and grandfather all worked at Kellogg’s. At Christmas they would put on a Christmas show for all the kids of the employees. After we got a small suitcase of all the new stuff and I remember getting pop tarts once. Along with Tony the Tiger spoon. And a small box of cereal that was new.
This whole interview is tongue in cheek and Mo Rocca is just trying to go with whatever Jerry is tossing out, it's like Improv. And I'm really loving Mo Rocca as a silver fox. Mo, "the guy", as someone calls him here, is a seasoned interviewer and regular contributor to CBS for many years.
Typo in the interviewer's name. Should be Mo Ronic. Jerry is so great, even after all these years! He came out of the starting blocks spot-on funny and has stayed right there, which is pretty amazing. Can't wait to see Pop-Tarts!
Jerry should have said .... "Ya know Mo, comedy is about timing. It's about knowing when to pause correctly, when to segue, practicing your lines, being prepared. It's about doing the direct opposite of what you're doing here today!." hahahaha! :)
Pop-Tart fun facts. 1. Science to create a fruit filling that didn't need refrigeration (or canning) was stolen from General Foods, Gaines Dog Food Burgers. 2. The POST product, "Country Squares" entered the market 7 months prior to Pop-Tarts but failed because of the stigma associated with the word "square" in the 60's. 3. The guy at Kelloggs who oversaw the Pop-Tart product had the surname POST. His kids ate the very first Pop-Tarts and demanded them when they woke-up every morning, thus the decision to market them as a breakfast food. 4. All Pop-Tart ad photos showed the product broken diagonally in order to make it appear to have more filling than pastry. All tests on versions with more filling resulted in Pop-Tarts exploding in the toaster.
@@jefolson6989 Can you play "Six Degrees of Separation" between Jerry Seinfeld and Donald Trump? Jerry Seinfeld produced movie featuring Post Toasties. Post Toasties was owned by the Post family. Marjorie Merriweather Post was heir to the family fortune. She lived in Palm Beach and built Mar-a-Lago. Donald Trump bought Mar-a-Lago. Frightening!
The interviewer was not equipped to interview Jerry. There were a lot of blank stares back at lines like “90% of the flavor of the pop tart is the heat, 90% of the flavor of ice cream is the cold”
Most interviewers are not as witty or smart as JS and too egotistical to acknowledge it. Larry King interviewed JS well because he just laughed at most of what he said.
There is so much opposition to this interview, along with speculating and rampant commenting... Jerry is SO FUNNY! Thanks to the man for staying in the pocket at all times 😂
There are moments, you remember all your life. There moments you wait for and dream of all your life. This is one of those moments! Yentil knew about Pop-Tarts?
This interview is fantastic! Well done. Jerry Seinfeld is so funny and interesting with such a fantastic perspective on things and a phenomenal storyteller. I can’t wait to see the movie.
I love both of these people so much, I don't give a damn about hair, sound mixing, whatever. So Mo may have been a little star-struck in this interview. I loved the background info. Calendar is marked for the day this movie comes out!
Fun Tech Tip - There are multiple mics on an interview, (over heads & lapels)BUT if an editor decides to engage ALL mics at the same time, you will hear the ambience/echo of the room. Bush-league move for a Prime Network Celebrity interview.
I’m 4 min in. Is this interviewer funny and just playing the straight man or is he serious? Ok by the end I actually loved it. The interviewer was definitely hysterical. X
Hostess IS the HoHo…and Little Debbie Swiss rolls were also the same. I never had Drakes growing up in Pittsburgh. And what’s with the audio? They forgot to turn on Jerry’s mic???
Why not get Jerry & Hugh Grant together “in conversation”? That would be a meeting of minds who like each other & it would be genuinely funny. Please take this one suggestion away with you to consider?
My roommates cat would smell the cinnamon pop tarts in ur hands and she would sneak up to us and jump up and bite it off really quick. One time she got a whole half pop tart.
I noticed that it myself. Seinfeld has on a lav mic but it sounds like it is coming off the camera feed. My guess is something went wrong with the lav during the shoot. BUT, they could have done some voice isolation to make it less noticable.
His Lav mic in not switch on the camera, or the battery in the lave died, and they didn't have a spare. We are hearing the audio from Mo Rocca's (the interviewer) mic.
And L.B. was in Chicago competing with Madison Ave in New York. More L.B. iconic characters: Jolly Green Giant, Keebler Elf, Marlboro Man, Maytag Repairman, Morris the Cat, Pillsbury Dough Boy, Toucan Sam.
Seinfeld is a comedy master. The way that he is handling the interviewer is absolutely hilarious.
“we could lose a few kids”
And I also enjoyed the interviewer. Jerry’s right he did his research. Enjoyed the twinkle in his eye when he’d give a fun new fact to Jerry.
I just love Jerry, he's fun and smart and blunt... Not many famous people are like him. I enjoy every interview with him.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about”4:22 this is the funniest part… the look on Jerry’s face!!
Part of the irony of Unfrosted has to be the media tour that Jerry Seinfeld is on, where the interviewers try to ask him serious questions about his childhood relationship to Pop Tarts.
He’s such a great talent! I still watch reruns of his show everyday.
Same here! Even if I am cleaning. It is on in the background or in my earphones. :)

😂
so out of pocket yet so true 😅
What’s with the sound of Jerry’s mic? He sounds like he is at the other end of the room…
his mic wasn't plugged in
Sounds like there is 1 overhead and it’s angled toward interviewer.
@@MANZANOADRIANyou can say that again. And Jerry needs to do that too…
I was gonna say just that. My hypothesis:” Mr Seinfeld, I’m gonna set up a mic on your shirt. Jerry- Don’t bother, you’ll hear me just fine! There’s plenty of mics in here!”
I noticed that to. But I don’t care, I could hear him. Life will go on just fine.
Watched UNFROSTED twice and will probably watch again. Fabulous memories, thank you.
“I don’t know what this is but I’m in on this” lol great line and so true my son loves his pop tarts just we did as kids
This is great, Jerry is literally talking to someone who takes it all too seriously. The whole basis for his comedy.

This seems like a comedic episode with the interviewee😂 I’m waiting for Jerry to roast him lol

@@sloanadair8009 I planned on it. Just watched the Bill Maher one. very fun.
Interview: I have never had a pop tart?

Jerry is 69! One of the old timers of Hollywood that deserves serious respect from the next generation. Thanks for all the laughs Jer
He also has an affinity for young girls. The dude dated a 17-year-old when he was 38. That is creepy and WRONG.

it's gold!
Boing!
Ho Ho's rock, Jerry! And yes, they are made by Hostess.. 😜
In depth conversation about Pop-Tarts... Ha love it!

Exactly
they did him dirty with this sound quality
they did him dirty with this interviewer quality
I love the pop tarts at whole foods market and trader’s Joe.
He is a National treasure, continues to make us laugh.

I'm 14:30 minutes in on my fourth stint, but I shall persevere for Jerry's sake!
"I didn't have a salad til I was 40... That's not a joke."

Wonderful!
Ho ho and Ding Dongs . They were wrapped in foil . So good
31:09 There was Snap, Crackle, Pop and Pow (circa 1954).

Pop Tarts are a dessert in Bethesda, Maryland? 😂
I loved the movie! It kept getting better and you never knew what huge star is going to show up.
Apparently CBS doesn't know to run bad audio through Adobe Podcast.
The snap, crackle and pop joke is the Seinfeld co stars asking for a million an episode in 97
