    My British husbands unit was deployed to a US base in the Middle East, he brought home a sack full of the 2 packs in so many different flavours, they gave them out at breakfast & no one else liked them. My 12 year old son took them to school & sold them for 50p a pack. 😂 apparently the cinnamon & s’more ones were the biggest hit.

    Although I am in the UK, i was shocked to find there were only 3 poptarts flavours available! I always thought that there had to be more but they just weren't sold in my local shops, but no! Wow. They really need to bring the American flavours over (especially the frosted brown sugar, I had that once and it was so good)

    “Just get a regular toaster” have you seen the sizes of flats in London? Not out of desire but of necessity, he has a combined toaster and stove, super cool. Had he had two separate appliances, he would need to get rid of the sink. This reminds me of the biggest mystery in Bridget Jones: how was she able to pay a central London flat on a publicity assistant salary.

      It's funny how I can see what people in the comments section are zoomers. We millenials were fed these for breakfast, cuz like Joe mentioned, they were marketed as breakfast food in the 90s. It's because they pumped them with vitamins, thus making them "healthy", the same way sugary breakfast cereals are.
      My mom would literally wrap up a brown sugar cinnamon pop tart for me to eat as breakfast on the way to school if we were pressed for time.

    Here in America they're still 100% marketed as a breakfast item. On their website it says, "Pop-Tarts® toaster pastries are a delicious and easy treat to look forward to. The perfect toaster tarts for home, snacktime, or an on-the-go breakfast!" Their FAQ also says they were first called "fruit scones" so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.

    I remember the UK’s Pop-Tart game being much better in the ‘90s. Something worth pointing out to our American friends is that UK junk food in general was better in the ‘90s. At some point towards the end of the decade there was a big push (presumably driven my some EU legislation) to remove artificial flavours and colours from everything. While undoubtedly better for our health it nevertheless ruined the junk food scene, and there is a lot less choice these days for many products.

  • @teneagles
    @teneagles ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Color isn't the reason companies use bleached flour. Flour is 'bleached' with chlorine, and chlorination changes the structure of the starch so that the protein is weaker and the ability to absorb sugar and liquid is greater. Thus, you can dramatically increase the amount of sugar in a baked product and it will still have good loft and an open crumb structure. It also enhances shelf life, through its ability to hold onto water.

    As a Uk guy, I remember havibg a lot more pop tart flavours over here, and definitely like a cookie dough flavour but when i looked on the website theres only the three which is weird

    I never thought there was a debate between toasted or untoasted. I think it's fairly unanimous that the toasted ones are better. The true debate is Pop Tarts versus Toaster Strudels

  • @bradleymarks
    @bradleymarks ปีที่แล้ว

    Ok so brown sugar and cinnamon best when toasted... however smores is great both untoasted and toasted...but blueberry, cherry, raspberry and strawberry are good cold

    I love Pop Tart's. My favorite ones are: Frosted- Blueberry, -Wildberry, -Strawberry.
    The cakey ones I don't like, sorry, but the fruity ones, with a glass of cold milk, hm hm hm 😙👌
    Unfortunately I always have to order them online, because here in Germany they don't sell them.

    As someone from the UK, I have never seen pop tarts outside of those 'american candy' shops, and they look like the worst possible way someone could start their morning. (Yes, I am factoring beans on toast into this)

    We only had plain (unfrosted) pop tarts when I was a kid. I don't even recall chocolate flavors--those seemed to come later, like in the late 80s/early 90s.

    @Si74l0rd ปีที่แล้ว +4

    A few of the American flavours have been sold at B&M over the years. Ive had about a dozen different flavours all told.
    The oddest one is the brown sugar cinnamon, which I quite liked as it's not as overtly sweet as some of the others, yet has more calories. I think it really does come down to the added chemicals sometimes, especially flavour enhancers and sweeteners.

    The best Pop-Tart flavor was peanut butter. It was so delicious but they sadly don't make it anymore, tasted just like a Nutter Butter but soft and chewy.
    They also had chocolate peanut butter but i never had a chance to try it.
