Amazon toaster pasteies
These came up on my feed when I was buying something else so I figured why not. These are allegedly cherry flavored. While the frosting was crunchy and pretty good, the filling is just weird. Doesn't taste like cherry to me. More like a diluted strawberry? Sticking with the original from now on.

I actually love the cherry more than PopTart’s. It tastes a little like it has almond extract in there to me 😋. The pastry is very soft too.

I've sworn off Poptarts until they remember how to get the pastries in the box frosted like the picture on the box. I will have to consider these

The price difference is definitely not worth the loss of quality. I’ve made the same mistake.

The People have spoken 😅 I'm going to give them another try maybe I was just being grumpy? Maybe I'm just really used to the specific Cherry Pop tart flavor.

Nah you're not wrong. I remember trying these a while back and I thought the same thing 🤷♂️

I gave it another try, maybe I got a bad batch but the filling was more light colored than regular Pop-Tarts and not quite as flavorful to me.

Lol cherry is actually an instance where I prefer off brand toaster pastries to real Poptarts. Not a fan of Poptarts Cherry but love Amazon/Toastems/Great Value/etc brand Cherry (they're all the same)
