    It's been a few years since I actually bought one. The 28 ounce sourdough specials looks like what I use - it has a screw top. Might not be the biggest opening, but easy enough to fit a hand, or a typical mountain house meal pouch.

    I don’t mind my pop tarts being all crumbled, kind of like eating granola.

    I crumble mine up in a bowl, pour on milk and enjoy. What's not to like about broken PopTarts? PopTarts with out frosting

    Now, that's disgusting!

    That's like drinking decaffeinated coffee. Heck, heroine addicts may as well just start injecting saline solution as an excuse to poke needles in their arms.

    What's the point?

    What's the world coming to?
    I'm not lost. I'm exploring.

    A few years ago, my wife joined me on the AT for a week. A young hiker was looking over the food he had just received in his mail drop and immediately gave away the pop tarts sans frosting. My wife said, "You shouldn't do that, it was from your mother". He replied, "It is proof that my mother doesn't love me. Who would mail their child pop tarts without frosting?".

    A friend of my mine used to spread peanut butter on them to hold them together.

    I thought it was brilliant but never cared enough to make myself do it, and would just pull the broken pieces apart and eat them price by price. Then maybe have a few spoonfuls of PB

    I HATE pop tarts!,,!! I use truck for a few years, one delivery was pop tarts. Backing into the dock the sun got in my mirror and caused me to hit the dock a little hard. Really upset the dock boss so he told me the load was a driver unload, than I made the mistake of correcting him! After a call to my dispatcher he informed me it was definitely a drive unload and to really make it worse a finger print unload, which means I had to touch EVERY box in that damn trailer! All 44,000# of pop tarts. To this day I still HATE them and knew just how many different favors they come in! So to end my post smash them crumble them whatever it takes to destroy them!

    So you're the guy that busted up all those poptarts and made the entire AT disgruntled

    I like the "in a bowl with milk - like cereal" idea but then I thought, I don't carry a bowl or milk.

    But then I realized...

    I have a toaks mug. And powdered milk would be easy to carry!

    Send them (all the unfrosted poPTarts) all my way - they are the only ones I'm not allergic to (I used to preferred frosted).
