Orange Cream Pop Tarts
Limited Edition!

Sassy has a fondness for orange Dreamsicles, so she had to buy these Orange Cream Pop Tarts, especially since it was the last box on the shelf and a limited edition.  How could I not try these and still say I'd lived a full life when that sweet chariot swings low?

Sassy wasn't too happy when she Googled these and found out they came out in early 2009.  *looks at expiration date on box after she's eaten all of them*April 2011*okay, I guess that chariot ain't gonna swing low from food poisoning today*  WTH?  Someone at the grocer found this stray box in the backroom, dusted them off,  and then put them out on the shelf?  *gag*

Anyway ... the filling is like an orange cream frosting.  If these were still on the market, I wouldn't buy them again.  They are okay, not great.  Price: $2 for 8 pastries.

On a scale of one to ten, Sassy awards Pop Tarts Orange Cream a 4.  If you like Pop Tarts you might have liked these.  Ask your grocer if they have any wandering around the backroom.  ha!

That sounds good. My daughter loves pop tarts. We'll have to look for this flavor.
Sassy *bacon makes me happy* Cat Aug 27, 2010, 11:47pm UTC
I hope you can find some!
Christine Zibas Aug 27, 2010, 8:49pm UTC
I give them credit for imagination, but this just doesn't sound right to me.
Sassy *bacon makes me happy* Cat Aug 27, 2010, 11:38pm UTC
They have dozens of flavors!
RedBird. B. Aug 27, 2010, 8:54pm UTC
I don't think I would care for these myself.
Thank-You for the Review!
Sassy *bacon makes me happy* Cat Aug 28, 2010, 2:55am UTC
Homemade sweets are so much better!
RedBird. B. Aug 28, 2010, 11:38am UTC
Yes! They sure are! :)

LOL, sometimes you do find strange things ;) At least they weren't out of date.
I really don't know how kids eat these, they are so dry and crumbly, no matter how good the filling sounds.
Sassy *bacon makes me happy* Cat Aug 27, 2010, 11:37pm UTC
Yes, and if it says "new" or "limited edition", I just cannot resist buying it, unless it is very expensive
Janet "Jax" B. Aug 27, 2010, 9:12pm UTC
That flavor doesn't even sound good to me.
Sassy *bacon makes me happy* Cat Aug 27, 2010, 11:48pm UTC
I do like the new wild grape
I love orange cream, but you couldn't pay me enough to eat a Pop Tart of any flavor.
Sassy *bacon makes me happy* Cat Aug 27, 2010, 11:48pm UTC
I confess, I love junk food. :o/
Shaunee C. Aug 27, 2010, 10:42pm UTC
They sound ok I don't think I would want to try these myself
Sassy *bacon makes me happy* Cat Aug 27, 2010, 11:39pm UTC
good choice!
JoAnn C. Aug 28, 2010, 8:51am UTC
I like Pop Tarts. Not sure if I would like this flavor. If I see them I'll give them a try.
Sassy *bacon makes me happy* Cat Aug 28, 2010, 11:16pm UTC
They are coming out with some holiday flavors
Sassy *bacon makes me happy* Cat Aug 28, 2010, 11:16pm UTC
One is pumpkin
Angela M. Aug 28, 2010, 10:57am UTC
I started to try these when I seen them recently glad i skipped them
Sassy *bacon makes me happy* Cat Aug 28, 2010, 11:17pm UTC
You didn't miss anything!
John S. (arizona) Aug 28, 2010, 10:58am UTC
They look kinda' pretty, but the thought of eating one grosses me out, LOL. I'm not really an orange cream flavor fan anyway though.... ;-)
Thanks... meow.
Sassy *bacon makes me happy* Cat Aug 28, 2010, 11:17pm UTC
Thanks John!
Marianne R. Aug 28, 2010, 11:39am UTC
I'll stick with my regular flavors
Sassy *bacon makes me happy* Cat Aug 28, 2010, 11:17pm UTC
Yep, the classic flavors are best
Kevin (''The SiteWizard'') V. Aug 28, 2010, 12:46pm UTC


This might be something I would try...assuming that I could find it. I do enjoy orange oil/flavoring in some baked goods, or chocolate (but not hard candy).
Sassy *bacon makes me happy* Cat Aug 30, 2010, 1:35am UTC
If you find it, check the expiration date. ;op
Diane Huizenga Aug 28, 2010, 4:10pm UTC
they don't sound good at all.
Sassy *bacon makes me happy* Cat Aug 30, 2010, 1:37am UTC
Thanks Diane!
Ms Lee P. Aug 28, 2010, 5:51pm UTC
They sound horrible. If had recommended them I might have tried them, but since you don't like them, I know I will not. I shall pass. Thanks for the review.
Sassy *bacon makes me happy* Cat Aug 30, 2010, 1:37am UTC
You're welcome!
anne ( way 2 crazy of a life ) c. Aug 28, 2010, 8:25pm UTC
my kids would probably love them, if I can find them I will let them try them
Sassy *bacon makes me happy* Cat Aug 30, 2010, 1:37am UTC
I bet they would enjoy them!
Peter Joseph Swanson Aug 28, 2010, 8:27pm UTC
Interesting
Sassy *bacon makes me happy* Cat Aug 30, 2010, 1:37am UTC
Thanks!
Wilma M. Aug 29, 2010, 12:10am UTC
I asked the grocer but he said you got the last of the moldy oldies. It is NOT something I'd try anyway.
Sassy *bacon makes me happy* Cat Aug 30, 2010, 1:38am UTC
The new wild grape ones are good!
Tory H. Aug 30, 2010, 11:15am UTC
Eek... haha! That's a little scary. ;)

I probably wouldn't have been into them anyway. I prefer my oranges in juice form!
Sassy *bacon makes me happy* Cat Aug 30, 2010, 7:37pm UTC
The new wild grape ones are good
The Red Headed Witch of Gather G. Aug 31, 2010, 12:05am UTC
bleh not a huge fan of fake orange anyways
Sassy *bacon makes me happy* Cat Aug 31, 2010, 12:56am UTC
Yeah, I shouldn't have bought these
Tina Coruth Sep 7, 2010, 2:03pm UTC
I used to love Dreamsicles! I haven't had one in years. As to asking the store to see if they have any of these poptarts in the back room? I'm afraid these just aren't old enough to be in the back room of my local store. LOL
