For the first time since their invention, I have finally bought a pack of Trivial Pursuit Pop Tarts. As a fan of Trivial Pursuit and snack food with things printed on them it has long past the time that I should have gotten some of these. The flavor is "Quizberry", however I maintain that it is in fact strawberry. Well, poptart strawberry flavored.
First question: What is an adult glowworm called?
Good question. Answer: Fireflys. At frist I thought this was a riddle, but wikipedia says it's true.
Poptart number two. Question: What did Tinke Bell Like to sprinkle around?
I can only assume that they meant Tinker Bell and that I, in my craving for refined sugar - correction - high fructose corn syrup, ate the part with the 'r' before remembering my mission to type this. In any case, the answer is "Pixie Dust".
They also have nice, accompanying images between the question and answer.
There is a warning on the box "Careful: Don't eat the answer too soon!" Apparently there are "hundreds of tasty questions" so if there are any repeats in my box of twelve I'm going to be pissed. On the opposite side of the box, it says "over 200 delicious questions". While it doesn't contradict itself, it bothers me that they say the same thing, two different ways, 180 degrees from each other.
Sadly the box also informs me that a serving size is 1 Pastry and that pastry is 200 Calories. Surprisingly there are some vitamins crammed in there too. With 10% of vitamin A, Iron, Niacin, Thiamen, Vitamen B6, Riboflavin, and Folic Acid. Shockingly, the things contain "Two percent or less of... dried strawberries, dried apples, Dried pears." Wow, I'm surprised that there is some actual fruit in there under that "Hydrogenated cottonseed oil with TBHQ and citric acid (for freshness)".
No indication of what TBHQ is other than a footnote that says "Less than 0.5g trans fat per serving." That's comforting.
