reranking of pop tarts*, once again

[archersangel]

previous ranking. this post was inspired by trying the frosted banana bread pop tarts.

• frosted brown sugar cinnamon
• s'mores
• pumpkin pie (one of the few seasonal flavors i've tried, because who wants to commit to a box of 12 if you don't like them?)
• cookies n' cream
• chocolate fudge
• chocolate chip
• chocolate peanut butter
• frosted banana bread. ok. could be more banana-y.
• lemon crème pie. lemon things are either; not very lemony, lemony, or LEMON! these are the second.
• peanut butter
• fruit ones
• pretzel pop tarts. dry & come apart at the end seams.
• sugar cookie. would've been better, but smells like some kind of chemical. probably what they use to print the winter scenes on them.
• apple jacks. barely tastes like anything, much less apple jacks
• snickerdoodle. possibly tied with unfrosted, since they are too.
• unfrosted ones
• boston cream pie. boston cream filling is not meant to be eaten warm.

i haven't seen pumpkin pie ones this season. don't know if we'd get them this year or not. they could be one of the few seasonal things i'd get every year & not get tired of.

*not every flavor is currently available. some are seasonal, others are for a limited time.

You make me want to try the lemon ones! I have never looked for them.

My favorite nonpareil is frosted blueberry. My kid likes all the chocolatey ones.

the lemon ones may have been seasonal, or limited time. but it would not hurt to look.

Egad, I feel old. I used to eat them for breakfast almost every day in college, and most of these flavors just did not exist. It was mostly fruit, and for non-fruit, we had a choice of chocolate, vanilla, or cinnamon.

And we liked it!

when i was young i think the flavors around here were brown sugar cinnamon, strawberry, blueberry & unfrosted strawberry and blueberry. i don't know when they started with all of these others.
according according to wikipedia there are 20 and 30 flavors in production at any time.
