It’s nice that the Pop Tart mascots get to go on a little overseas vacation in as part of their brief lives before being ritually killed and eaten on national television during the Pop Tarts Bowl

the reason they're going to Ireland is because the act of lowering a sentient pop tart man into a giant toaster to be cooked and then eaten by his friends is kinda similar to what the pagans had going on with the wickerman

This is the Pop Tart version of an old dog getting to do everything he likes before he gets “taken to live on a farm”

At least they'll be safe in the EU since there it's likely that they're not deemed safe for human consumption

What if the Pop Tarts have such a great time in Ireland that they realize they enjoy living life and no longer yearn to be consumed

surely as the Pop Tart mascot descends into the giant toaster, there is a flicker of horror, of desperate regret, like Anna Karenina briefly trying to pull herself up off the train tracks

would love to be a fly on the wall as pop tart describes the coming horror of being eaten as a bar of irish spring realizes its death will come slowly due to its vigorous erosion by human flesh

I’m scared it’s a Joe Versus the Valcano situation exactly and someone is not being truthful to the pop tarts.

I just realized that the Pop Tarts Bowl is basically the musical Cats. A series of characters in crazy outfits are introduced, all of whom are vying to be the "lucky" one chosen to die.

I don’t think they’re going down so easily this time…

Image of the famous picture of the five members of the Real IRA wearing ski masks and wearing military style fatigues sitting at a desk reading a letter with the two Pop-Tars Bowl mascots poorly photoshopped into the picture with poorly drawn ski masks on them

At least once a month, I think about your tweet of being fed a pop tart by a larger, anthropomorphic, softly-grunting pop tart

Do you think it's the same person or do you think they stick to the spirit of them getting eaten and get a new one?
