Re: What Flavor Profile Do You Prefer in a Pop Tart?
 
So I am a little confused as I hear different things on different pop tart boards.

Do you guys age your pop tarts in the wrapper or with the wrapper off?

Does it make a difference if they are Kellogg pop tarts or if they come from another country?

I personally like to age mine with the wrapper off Markem, that way they develop a nice crust "cake" and you get the subtle flavors of grain in the pastry...

BTW, your Arlo Guthrie link is to one of my Dad's favorite songs...

:rolleyes: :r

Well, we have to consider Bloom of Ploom or Mold.

While initially reluctant, have to totally agree as no doubt keeping the wrapper on will result in mold and lack of proper aging.

On another note, can't believe how few votes for Kitty Litter. Quite disappointing.

Do you prefer a "straight" or a "V" cut? Palio or Xikar?

Thanks to the expert and authoritative information in Turd's ultimate book, my pop-tarts plumed! This is DEFINITELY not mold!

Do you guys keep the wrapper on the box or store them individually stacked facing north south headings in the pantry so not to increase their magnetic signature?

Rule of 3's on compass direction. I skip south at my age since that is where all seems to be going anyway.:r

Now I am way confused. When you say stacked, I am assuming you mean that the box is resting on the box's "bottom" and not, for example, on the "back" which is also stacking. Stacking on the side seems to me not to be recommended as it could place unnecessary pressure on the edges of the precious pastry - has anyone tried this who is willing to give feedback?

I'm confused also about the north/south thingy. What actually is facing north? Also, we know that the true magnetic north isn't the same as map north, so do we need a good compass to make this work or will my iPhone compass (4S in case it matters, most recent IOS) do just fine. What if I get interference from the refrigerator, which is located next to the pantry. Do I just build another pantry?

Also, I read some place that magnetic flux lines are not in a straight line but curved. I assume that this just one more bias against the flat earth society (see the Discworld series for more details) and so am prone to think that magnetic lines are just that - lines. We all know that lines are straight and they would not call them lines if the weren't straight. They'd call them "magnetic arcs" or something. Science doesn't make mistakes like this - I know.

So all this is the long way of asking of the pop tarts generate their own magnetic flux (perhaps like a vortex?) and if you alternate the different boxes north/south then south/north, will it cancel the effect and not pooch my watch battery? Do different fillings have different magnetic effects?

No one has talked about toaster lumens yet. I hope we get there soon.

Pop Tarts exist in Hyper Space so the magnetic flux vortex has no affect.

Purge or no purge?

I prefer to use a plutonium powered toaster capable of generating the 1.21 gigawatts of electricity necessary for a even toast.

Did you guys ever have the special edition pumpkin ones they put out in the Fall?
They are severely choice. I can only eat a couple boxes before the fun wears off, but they're worth dragging home if you see them. :tu

Do they have seriously cool names like "Peter Peter the pumpkin eater brought the pops home to tartly toast"? I really dig that.

The Pumpkin ones were great! I do like the peanut butter chocolate ones.

Frosted. Toasted. With butter melted onto the back of the pop tart right after it comes out of the toaster oven. REAL butter, not that wimpy, fake crap. If I want that cinnamon taste, I'll just have some cinnamon and sugar on some toasted, buttered (yep, the Real butter) bread. NOT in/on a pop tart!

If I do eat them, I prefer Madagascar Vanilla.

Of course, my TRUE preference is Toaster Strudles. Either Cherry or Blueberry. With the icing on top, of course. But that's probably another poll!! :r

Multiple voting would have suited me...BS&C was my vote, but I also love Blueberry and strawberry and cherry.
My favorite PopTart memory is the year we were in Houston to have a ball at Astroworld. We were in a Holiday
Inn next door, which was already pretty great for campers like us. My younger sister and I were sitting on the balcony
on about the 4th floor, eating poptarts hot out of the toaster and hot chocolate that my mother warmed with
that thing you dunk in the coffee the coiled up thing you plug into the wall like an insane person would do?
We were looking out at a quiet, dawn Astroworld, munching our pop tarts, silently envisioning all the
kick-a55 fun we would be having that day. We had spent a week with an old Astroworld map we had from a
previous visit. We knew exactly where we were going to start, exactly what we were going to DO, and
were about as sure as we could be that this was gonna be the best day ever.

I could not find those near me until after the season was over. So I had my mom package me up some of the pumpkin poptarts and send them to me in a care package. I still have one package left!

I completely forgot about those. Pop 'em in the toaster and they tasted like warm pumpkin pie. :dr :dr

Strawberry frosted is my classic go to for the pop tarts. S'Mores flavor is also delicious.

I think pop tarts should start making savory varieties. Bacon anyone? :D

I love how Pop Tarts stack so easily in the Coolerdors. No having to play tetris to get them to fit. :D
