Andy, the quote you provided me states "...........because it makes them taste more betterer."

BTW,
While Turd Furgenson may be an authoritative figure on this subject and I do bow to his writings also, Mike Fahey makes some interesting observations.
No wonder my dogs love them.

By far Fahey's best quote is

Pop-Tarts—F*** Breakfast

I subscribe to the Poptart Rule of 3's
3 days in the pantry to stabilize the Poptarts after their trip home from the store
3 minutes in the toaster to make them nice and hot.
3 seconds on my plate for the filling to cool and age before I shovel them into my face.

You don't freeze them first to minimize infestations?
For me:
3 days in the freezer, followed by 3 days in the fridge, followed by 3 days in the pantry. All highly recommended by Furgenson.

Thats pretty risky. Its a well know fact in the Pop tart community that if freezing isn't done right it could result in the crust splitting open while eating. Especially when you get into the last 3rd of the Pop tart. I prefer to play it safe and store them in a cool dry place under the temp that infestations may occur.

I have frankly never experienced that as I maintain the fridge at precisely 37.2547 degrees, which I have read is ideal for the interim process from freezer to pantry.

BS/Cin with strong coffee. I can think of worse ways to start the morning.

Strawberry - unfrosted. We only buy Pop Tarts when we are going camping. Ever since my kids were little it's always been a "treat" for camping. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks, they could have them anytime they wanted when we were camping.

strawberry unfrosted.

I personally like to age mine with the wrapper off Markem, that way they develop a nice crust "cake" and you get the subtle flavors of grain in the pastry...

BTW, your Arlo Guthrie link is to one of my Dad's favorite songs...

Well, we have to consider Bloom of Ploom or Mold.

While initially reluctant, have to totally agree as no doubt keeping the wrapper on will result in mold and lack of proper aging.

On another note, can't believe how few votes for Kitty Litter. Quite disappointing.

Do you prefer a "straight" or a "V" cut? Palio or Xikar?
