Parenting fail. He should have been all over him for playing for the Leafs.

I teach my kids empathy and he definitely feels bad that a great local player has to play for the leafs :nod:

It's too late for my kids, but maybe if eloco decides to have a child now that he's getting married, that kid can participate in the heavy metal world knitting championships.

Real funny guys, I tell you my wife left me in confidence and you make jokes about it.

Seriously though, I think Pop Tarts are OK but havent had them in years. I always thought they were decent but there is a person (non gender specific to show my personal growth) in my workplace who puts them in the toaster oven each morning and that makes the entire kitchen area smell fantastic, much better than they actually taste.

Poptart purist here. Give me the traditional blueberry or strawberry, frosted versions when I am feeling particularly frisky.

They have jumped the shark with some of the flavo(u)rs nowadays. I mean Jolly Rancher? Vanilla Latte??

Almost as stupid as the annual Lays "name a food item and act like you invented something by writing Buffalo Chicken Wings on a piece of paper, forcing the lab geeks to try and replicate the taste on a slice of fried potato" contest.

The pink lemonade Pop Tarts were awesome.

The green apple ones are pretty good too. Don't knock it till you try it.

I agree. My favorite might be the plainest of all, Brown Sugar Cinnamon - frosted because I am insane!

I don't want any Smores or PBJ flavors.

Last week, my son was eating a Pop Tart at the table and my brother in law (who recently had a heart attack) looked at the nutrition info on the box and then decided to tell my son... my 16 year old two sport high school athlete son... that he should "enjoy them while he can" because they are "loaded with sodium" and a "heart attack waiting to happen".

My son just kept eating and mumbled "I'll stop when I can't walk up stairs anymore 30 years from now".

That's my contribution to "Pop Tart Talk"

He's not wrong.

Into my mid-20s, breakfast for me was a package of Pop-Tarts and a bottle of Mountain Dew.

Now my cholesterol jumps 10 points if I even think of eating something like that.

I should clarify that he is a man who ate 12 wings as a "snack" while waiting for everyone else to get ready to go out to dinner.


And my son's typical breakfast is grapes or bananas.
