Poptarts

Flimming has shared a very disturbing fact. Apparently in the UK, there are only two flavors of poptarts (gasp! ) so I decided to head to my grocery store and take photos of all the different flavors we have.

So first things first here is a photo of the shelves of poptarts!



Next here are some interesting flavors...










Believe it or not there are even MORE flavors!

Lies Becky, lies!!

They have about 5 flavours i think, you just have to go to one of those american candy import shops!

I love the Root Beer from those shops, Mug is it called? It's so worth the £2.50 a can. lol

No lies!
they still have to come from america though!!
I mean in our local stores there is only the strawberry and sprinkles and the chocolate marshmellow ones or something D:<

I make myself lol how i took the time to make the word "sprinkles" multicoloured.

Also, What's smore?
lol..

Lol, i think smores are melted marshmallows?

Warning, contains animal.

I spelt marshmallow wrong?
I thought it was marshmellow.
Oops D:<
I think the fruity ones look yummy :O and the cookies and creme.
actually.. nvm they all look yummy.

Gotta love them poptarts! My son found spider man poptarts and I bought them for him. He left town and I fed them to his sister and when he got home he was verrry mad at me lol I have never seen the same kind since. Poor little dude lol

Flimmy! You should open up a Poptart shop in England! I wonder if my store has any unique kinds too?

James have you made a brown cow with your Mugs rootbeer? (It's also known as a black and white in some parts of the US.)

Do this immediately to enjoy a true bit of Americana:

1.) Get large mug or glass,

2.) Put two giant scoops of vanilla ice cream in it.

3.) Carefully pour mug root beer over the top. It will make crazy freezy froth. You can also do the reverse root beer first, ice cream second - to cut down on the froth.

4.) Grab a spoon and enjoy!

I tried answering this earlier, but the forum ate my response! Bad forum.

A S'more is part of a campfire tradition. You put a marshmallow on the end of a skewer and hold it over your campfire. It gets all golden and melty and toasty. You then messily slide the melty marshmallow off the skewer and put it in between 2 graham crackers and a little piece of chocolate. The marshmallow is hot and will start to melt the chocolate.

It's called a S'more, because the idea is that its sooooo good you are going to want "some more"

I actually dont like S'mores because I think they are too sweet. But most Americans love them and food manufacturers make all kinds of S'more styled products, even poptarts and cereal! (But I do love toasting marshmallows, it's the only way I eat them)

This is what an actual S'more would look like.

I've tried that Pam!

We just call them floats over here, so if you have coke its a coke float, root beer is a root beer float i guess lol

I loved it <3

James is referring to the gelatin in marshmallows which helps them "firm-up". Thats the animal product he avoids. Eggs aren't always in marshmallows. I think some recipes have egg whites, but others do not.

Gelatin is made from boiled crushed bones.



PS. Mug > A&W, but Barq's is the best!

FYI, we dont even have poptarts........

This makes me sad...

OMG I don't why that was so funny)))))))))))

I think its suppose to be funny because the narrator pronounced all the words the way they were spelled? Not what they were intended to be?

I though the fact the word husband was spelled correctly was funny.

Haha its just something you laugh at with no reason to! haha

OMG XD that video made me loooooooooooooool.

Smore poptarts are my fav!!

Although I havn't tried many flavors... usually poptarts are too sweet for me in the morning... I like salty foods like potatoes ^_^
but they're so yummy when you're on the go and need some energy.

I can't believe they charge that much for mug root beer.... it seems almost criminal.

U would srsly do that pam? <3

Yea, it is almost criminal to deprive me of my precious root beer goodness ad then extort my hard earned money >.< lol

LOL the advertisement on the front page XD
