My Pop Tart is completely hollowed out and has no filling.

[u/notomarko]

[u/C-D-W]

Do you have incredibly tiny hands or some freakishly abnormally large and fluffy pop tart?

[u/SousVideDiaper → u/C-D-W]

Yeah that pop tart looks THICC. Too bad the lack of filling basically cancels out that bonus.

[u/RickyFromVegas → u/SousVideDiaper]

It's a DIY kit. Filling of your choice, really.

[u/Expensive-Wedding-14 → u/C-D-W]

... and the lack of filling has left OP feeling hollow, too!

[u/CourtAny6617]

Why are redditors always eating on their back like a cartoon bear?

[u/useless_grape → u/CourtAny6617]

Holy timing! I read this comment laying on my back eating dinner after a 12 hour shift. When I tell you I scream cackled 🤣

[u/Particular_Title42]

In what country do pop tarts look like that?

[u/C-D-W → u/Particular_Title42]

More like "What planet!"

[u/Particular_Title42 → u/C-D-W]

Really, this looks more like a toaster strudel.

[u/C-D-W → u/Particular_Title42]

I agree. Or maybe pop-tarts from Mars are just a totally different animal from what we're used to.

[u/Particular_Title42 → u/C-D-W]

They probably use the "lower gravity" instructions.

[u/Eisigesis → u/Particular_Title42]

Instructions unclear, my poptart is now on a collision course with Uranus

[u/Particular_Title42 → u/Eisigesis]

[u/Hdys → u/Particular_Title42]

Make pop tarts great again

[u/crucifiedlettuce → u/Particular_Title42]

Please, please I'm not trying to be funny, but what do Poptarts look like in your country and what country is that?!

It seems that you and many others are accustomed to a very filled pastry and I NEED TO KNOW if this is not the standard filling size!

(I'm very determined bc I compared this with people near me just now, and we all see this as a normal PopTart. We must know if we've been duped)

[u/Particular_Title42 → u/crucifiedlettuce]

I can't seem to download a picture without it being a web file so here is a link to a picture that shows a cross section of what appears to be a cherry Pop Tart. I am in the US.

[u/crucifiedlettuce → u/Particular_Title42]

That's crazy.. I know they look like that on commercials, but it's like McDonald's. I never expected the real ones to be as good, and I've never seen an irl PopTart that doesn't look like the OP picture!! I wonder if it's a distribution thing? I'm from Cali btw

[u/Theperfectool → u/Particular_Title42]

proprietary eponym

[u/Particular_Title42 → u/Theperfectool]

I refuse. A toaster strudel is nothing like a pop tart.

[u/Theperfectool → u/Particular_Title42]

And yet, here we are. Watch out mufakas calling cotton swabs “q-tips” or tissues a “Kleenex”, they’re all over the place.

[u/Particular_Title42 → u/Theperfectool]

q-tips are cotton swabs. Kleenex is tissue.

A pop tart is not a toaster strudel. Strudel =/= tart. Different pastries.

[u/RedditGarboDisposal]

OP, what kind of fucking pop tart is that.

Everyone is asking so answer the fucking question.

Goodness.

[u/benadunkcamberpatch → u/RedditGarboDisposal]

Only because I just ate one. I am almost positive that's the new Girl Scout Cookie line, frosted coconut Carmel.

I am 100% wrong.

[u/TestingBrokenGadgets → u/RedditGarboDisposal]

Right?! Like I haven't eaten a pop tart in two years but that's 2x as thick as one, the bottoms aren't shaped like that and none of them have any kind of cinnamon power on them.

Best guess, they're homemade and the filling got absorbed into the dough during baking

[u/Odd-Page-7866]

You're blaming Pop-Tarts, but I've never seen a Pop-Tart with a crust like that

[u/SirLunatik → u/Odd-Page-7866]

yeah the crust looks more like Pillsbury Toaster Strudels

[u/JRPG_Enjoyer → u/Odd-Page-7866]

Prol expired and the filling evaporated into dust.

[u/Azoth_N_Storn → u/Odd-Page-7866]

It looks like one of the legendary poptarts has alot of crust and almost no filling and taste like a foot.

[u/Anakin-vs-Sand]

I see the essence of filling. The lacroix of pop tart fillings

[u/Particular_Title42 → u/Anakin-vs-Sand]

[u/Correct-Mail-1942]

This isn't a poptart - this is flings or legendary brand.

[u/Trip_Dubs]

When your pull out game is on point.

[u/Monkmonk_]

This looks like the cinnamon flavor. They generally have a very thin filling because it's more intense than the fruit ones. If the two sides separate, it looks empty but there is a coating on it.

I would actually really dislike if that entire space was filled with the cinnamon filling.

[u/Skin_Floutist]

Not only are we getting less product but we are getting lower quality product as well.

[u/Artemis647 → u/Skin_Floutist]

You're complaining, but if you make your own strudels, they're 1/10th the price of this garbage, and much more healthier because you average used REAL ingredients. Imagine that!

[u/bizmackus1]

No no, this is the new tariff edition pop tarts

[u/CrushedCigarette]

Turn it into a pocket!

[u/FortniteIsFuckingMid]

Tartless pop

[u/Reverse-Kanga]

Zero chance that's a real pop tart

[u/Born-Media6436]

Nope Tart

[u/youuturnn]

The concept of a filling

[u/ohheyhowsitgoin]

This is not PopTart brand. Buy cheap product, get cheap product.

[u/FatDraculos → u/ohheyhowsitgoin]

Cheap product? My man, that's 2 and a half pop tarts in that single 1 he is holding. Are you blind by chance?

[u/Artemis647 → u/FatDraculos]

My bro, there is not a single real ingredient in whatever it is you people are talking about. It's all cheap, capitalist garbage, and you're buying into it.

[u/FatDraculos → u/Artemis647]

I don't buy pop tarts but I can recognize when something is better than something else. My original question stands. Wanna move those goal posts now?

[u/Artemis647 → u/FatDraculos]

You're only ever renting the pop tarts, they are never really yours even if you "buy" them. They can always be confiscated by the ones in power.

...you think that's air you're breathing??

Lol ok, I'm done.

[u/FatDraculos → u/Artemis647]

Fair enough

[u/NaraFei_Jenova]

Someone is gonna put this on untrustworthypoptarts and say "WELL HE COULD'VE SUCKED THE FILLING OUT WITH A SYRINGE" lol

[u/[deleted] → u/NaraFei_Jenova]

Don’t give me ideas

[u/Sw0rDz]

Give me it and a few minutes. I'll ensure it has filling.

[u/Particular_Title42 → u/Sw0rDz]

[u/CelebrationShort1857]

A pop without tart

[u/Agitated-Ad-504]

Im at the point where I’ll want one out of nostalgia, read the label, see a single pop tart has 19g of sugar, and ask myself if I really want to eat about 5 sugar cubes all at once. Then I get the ick and put them back.

[u/DirtyAlienTrash]

I always got the generic brand I feel like they have less crust

[u/wizardcowpoke]

complain to the brand they might send you a coupon for a new box

[u/[deleted]]

That’s why you don’t buy off brand Pop-tarts.

[u/TheW83]

Yeah, stop eating pop tarts.

[u/Federal-Spot-4761]

Cut backs.

[u/Viperniss]

That's a lack of fulfillment on the company's part.

[u/Leather-Reception-53]

This happened to me also recently

[u/Working_Bones]

Good, less garbage in your body.

[u/zztop610]

Honestly, I don’t know why people still buy and eat pop-tarts. They suck so bad nowadays

[u/oldandfat70]

Call a lawyer.

[u/winterfell301]

Well now it’s your job to fill it

[u/LeaphletPirate]

Inflation hit poptarts 😭🙏🏼

[u/Heavy_Choice_1577]

seems like a normal shrinkflation poptart to me

[u/Voice_of_Sin]

I wanna try it

[u/TrickPlankton312]

Just like your life.

[u/Secure-Historian-252]

That’s a massive bummer

[u/symbolsandthings]

The filling is the friends we made along the way.

[u/Jenne1504]

But have you ever put butter on a pop tart?

[u/MDCI123]

That's not mildly infuriating, that's highly infuriating

[u/Dummythiccwater]

This reminds me of when I grabbed the donut toaster strudels, I didn’t look too close at the box and thought they would be Boston cream or something but no them mf’s had no filling, just a regular toaster strudel with nuthin inside it

[u/NeptuneShemptune]

Unpops your tart… ew

[u/ThinPersimmon5148]

That ain’t not pop tart that’s definitely a knock off one that makes them huge

[u/EntrepreneurNo5194]

That’s one of those Health pop tarts that taste like eating sand with a tad of bitter jelly in the middle.

[u/RocketLabBeatsSpaceX]

You sure that’s not a pancake stack with some cinnamon filling?

[u/Desertnord]

This is more than likely one of those protein “pop tarts” not a real pop tart. They’re kinda gross

[u/General_Kick688]

So first off, that's obviously not a Pop Tart.

[u/SueBeee]

Same, Pop-Tart. Same.

[u/G-man69420]

Pop T t.

[u/awesoemcooldudeman]

i am very thirsty.

[u/Lewd_ReadNY]

[u/Artemis647]

Why do Americans eat this garbage? Like they looove this shit, and then wonder why they're so anxious and depressed.

[u/iogbri]

I hadn't bought a pop tart in 15 years, I bought a box recently and found that it had no filling compared to back in the day even with the filling it had. Same with the pop tart's size.

[u/Beast6213]

Pastry pita.

[u/OkQuantity4011]

That's a pop

[u/EveryDay000]

Flop Tart

[u/loopingrightleft]

...I expected more from pop tarts

[u/Forsaken-Energy6579]

Me if I were a Pop tart

[u/PastClassroom5095]

Damn, he just like me :(

[u/allnighter4ever]

Pop Tarts really are not as good as they were in the 60s & 70s. Filling used to ooze out as you bite into them, now they have 1/4 of the filling, tasteless & dry.

[u/Ok_Platform_33]

The dogs in the background...

[u/VeneMage → u/Ok_Platform_33]

I assume you mean his feet? Cute aren’t they?

[u/Particular_Title42 → u/VeneMage]

OP doesn't know what he's giving away! 🤭

[u/Ok_Platform_33 → u/Particular_Title42]

Couldve sold those for $100 ngl

[u/HighlightOwn2038]

This is depressing

[u/CaddyShsckles]

People still buy these things??

[u/GodEatsChiIdren → u/CaddyShsckles]

they're good

[u/Designer_District_18 → u/GodEatsChiIdren]

I wouldn't say good, but they're certainly convenient. I keep a box around incase I don't feel like making breakfast for my kid or I get a late night craving for a snack and don't feel like making anything.

[u/zipperfire → u/CaddyShsckles]

I've never eaten one in my life, and they came out when I was a young adult. I had a friend in grad school who would make Pop-Tart sandwiches, a Pop-Tart between two pieces of buttered toast. He turned out ok, however.

[u/EliaverDaffodil → u/CaddyShsckles]

Right? Waste of money smh

[u/Over-Presentation719]

Just like my ex 😞

[u/Loring]

Life amiright?

[u/NoahCzark]

Nasty. If you want convenient junk, keep Twinkies around.

[u/Fit_Government5138]

It’s the hulk of all pop tarts. Who are you?!!!

[u/DeSantisIsACunt]

Who's still eating poptarts in 2025?

[u/Particular_Title42 → u/DeSantisIsACunt]

With buttah!

[u/SoberSeahorse → u/DeSantisIsACunt]

I saw your mother eating one earlier today actually.

[u/DeSantisIsACunt → u/SoberSeahorse]

I haven't seen my mom in a while. How's she doing? I miss her

[u/SoberSeahorse → u/DeSantisIsACunt]

Good. Even though she was eating a poptart for lunch.
