So pretty much they were a delicacy. Anyway, when you toast the unfrosted Pop-Tarts, putting butter on them is pretty much the only way to go. The butter melts into the crust, it's great all around.
Lately I've been finding out that putting butter on Pop-Tarts is greeted with a near universal "huh?", followed by a semi-universal, "wait, what? gross." Not sure why no one else I've talked to lately has ever done this. Probably because they only eat frosted Pop-Tarts. It's rare to ever see more than the strawberry flavored Pop-Tarts in the unfrosted form these days, although I did happen upon some unfrosted blueberry about a month ago. Anyway, I think they are great, and I encourage you to try it out.
Maybe I am strange, but I can't stand pop-tarts. They are just nasty, you couldn't put enough of anything on them to make them taste good. Not to mention the chemicals. Yeah, I can taste those. DD loves them. I put a couple of boxes in her stocking every year for Christmas and tell her I don't want to see her putting that in her mouth.
