Really, Michigan? This is Our State’s Favorite Pop-Tart Flavor

Jerry Seinfeld's Netflix movie 'Unfrosted' has us thinking about Pop-Tarts. A lot. So that makes us wonder:  What is Michigan's favorite Pop-Tart flavor?

Michigan's Favorite Pop-Tart Flavor Revealed

I won't send you on a wild goose chase, making you pore through endless paragraphs just to find out the answer. Michigan's favorite Pop-Tart flavor is Frosted Strawberry.

How 'bout Frosted Cherry Pop-Tarts? Yes, Traverse City, I'm looking at you.

Or why not Frosted Chocolate Fudge, Frosted Chocolate Strawberry, or Frosted Hot Fudge Sundae? I mean, seriously - Frosted Hot Fudge Sundae!

Random Pop-Tarts Observations

Although Pop-Tarts were invented in Battle Creek, Michigan, we rank third in the nation (behind New Mexico and Tennessee) for weekly Pop-Tart consumption.

I fully expected Pennsylvania residents would embrace one of the aforementioned chocolate flavors, as Hershey, Pennsylvania is the home of Hershey's Chocolate World, but no. Weird.

Unfrosted - Not Exactly Historically Accurate

Jerry Seinfeld's Netflix comedy about creating the popular breakfast pastry is filled with appearances by comedy greats, but it isn't exactly historically accurate. Bill Post, who is credited with inventing Pop-Tarts in 1964, passed away earlier this year.
