I love Poptarts. I always have. They make a delicious and nutritious (hey, strawberry filling is fruit, no?) breakfast or snack. They're good hot, room temp, or apparently frozen. (I haven't tried that variation yet, but I plan on it.) And there are so many flavors to choose from - from blueberry to s'mores, chocolate fudge to cherry - that I never get tired of eating them. Omnomnomnom.
While I love Poptarts, I consider myself an equal-opportunity breakfast pastry lover. So yes, I've eaten a few Toaster Strudels in my time. I find them quite good too. Very different from Poptarts, sure, but not better.
But it seems that Toaster Strudel has gotten its (their?) panties in a bunch and has started a war on Poptarts. I've a couple of commercials for Toaster Strudel in the last few weeks, and they all single out Poptarts! Uncool guys. In Poptart commercials you don't see or hear any mention of the rival product at all; Poptarts are so confident in their delicious goodness that they don't need to put anyone else down. But Toaster Strudel... I don't know what they're trying to do, but they just piss me off.
I like Toaster Strudels just fine. But please, Mr. Strudel, don't hate on my Pop Tarts.
Omnomnomnomnom.
