Every once in a while I will buy pop tarts. I like the apple cinnamon and the chocolate the best. I actually prefer those toaster strudels, but those are higher in calories and fat, and can't be eaten cold, either.

i haven't had the apple cinnamon one's yet. they keep coming out with more and more. i like the toaster strudels as well, but there's not many in a box and i will eat every single one in 2 days. lol. they are a lot higher in calories and fat. that's another reason i quit eating them. thanks for responding

My husband is 25 & I am 21 & we still eat poptarts quite a bit, my husband and my son both prefer Brown Sugar & Cinnamon or Strawberry, my son also likes any chocolate ones, and I prefer strawberry, chocolate chip, or smores. All of our poptarts have to be iced though, none of us will eat them if they aren't.

Hi! My family loves pop tarts. My hubby eats them all them time and my little one even likes the fruit flavors. I like the chocolate caramel flavor! :-)

I haven't seen the chocolate caramel for a while, but if you find it, you'll enjoy it. We usually get strawberry, blueberry, or cherry, but I just got a variety pack with chocolate fudge, hot fudge sundae, and smores flavors. Yummy! :-)

I thought this was comical as Save-On-Foods (a chain of grocery stores in western Canada) has them on sale this week and the price seems to be the same as it was 30 years ago!I use to like them when I was young,but now they seem so thin and sugary that they are no longer on my list of "wants".The last one I had was about 6 years ago and that is when I came to my conclusion.

hmm. that's a good thing. the price hasn't gone up for a change. i couldn't go 6 years without a poptart. they're just so good. lol. thanks for responding

I still eat poptarts and I'm going to be 27 in July. My favorite ones are maple and brown sugar, strawberry and chocolate fudge. I like them because they are good and they are a fast breakfast when you are either in a hurry or you don't really feel like making anything else. I would rather have cereal though but I do still love my poptarts. I also like toaster strudels. I love the gooey fruit in them! :)

I used to, but I've replaced them now with Kellogs Special K cereal bars. They're really yummy.. I can't get enough, even though they're quite filling. I liked the cinnamon pop tarts when I used to eat them.

I love poptarts! I think my favorite would have to be the chocolate ones. I like the strawberry ones too. And the blueberry ones. I could go on forever lol, but then my hands hurt from typing. And you're welcome lol. I never mind answering a question about poptarts. But I'm getting hungry now.

I am 42 and still eat pop tarts. I but these so that we all have a quick breakfast. We grab one and head out the door. There is little mess and it is filling. I also think it is better for us than to grab a candy bar. I love cherry and my husband likes strawberry and my daughter loves the cinnamen chocolate. Oh she also like the new smores poptart. I just got some coupons so this will help with the price. I usually only by the actual pop tarts not the off brands. I find that some of the off brands don't have a lot of icing or the filling in low.

they are quick and easy. that's what i love about them. it's much better than to grab a candy bar since those don't fill you up. i had a coupon last week for it. i don't buy the off brands either they taste horrible. thanks for responding

i also grew up on poptarts. yea i remember the blue ones. they only come in individual packages at the convenience store. check there. you may find them. thanks for responding

I still eat Poptarts, when I can find them. They're a brilliant snack, or brunch when you can't be bothered to prepare anything. Strawberry flavour is my favourite, but they're becoming harder and harder to find in the UK. Some supermarkets stock them, but not many.

Nothing wrong with being an adult and still enjoying a good old Poptart. I will hurt someone to get my hands on a S'mores Poptart. :)

Oh yes everyone in my house still eat poptarts. My favorite are the strawberry, my children love the chocolate and smores. This is one of those items that is on my list every week when I go to the store. I love it when they are on sale and I can stock up on them.
• United States
12 Feb 07
i tried to eat the smores as a child but i couldn't get into them. they are on my list about every 2 weeks because i don't eat many poptarts. i dont have kids either so this is why they last me a bit longer. i also like it when they're on sale. it's the best time to buy. thanks for responding.

I used to love poptarts when I was a child and my mom would bring them home for us as a treat for breakfast . But now that I am older I don't care for them very much . I will get them once in awhile but feel they are not a very good breakfast for my children . The only one I like is the cherry or strawberry ( not sure which it is ) with the frosting on top of it .

they made a great breakfast and now a great snack. i don't know how good they are for kids. i think cereal is a little better because it has more nutrients. they are a good quick snack or breakfast if you are in a hurry. thanks for responding

I find your question interesting, because I was earlier thinking about them, and how I loved them when I was little, and wondered it they make them in low calories now, and thought tomorrow when I go to the store I will have to check it out. So, no I haven't eaten them, but blueberry, and cherry were my favorite.

it's amazing how many people have told me that they were thinking about them the day they seen my post. they do make the brown sugar and the strawberry in low calories. they only come in a small box not a big box. that's why i quit buying them. thanks for responding

I only ever used to like the strawberry ones but got tired of burning my mouth so gave up eating them!

well you're not supposed to eat them straight from the toaster. lol.. i always break them into smaller pieces and let them cool off for about 5 minutes before eating them. that way they don't burn your mouth. thanks for responding
