Sorry, ranch dressing-flavored Pop-Tarts won't become a thing, Kellogg says

Ever imagined Pop-Tarts flavored with ranch dressing?

After a picture of ranch dressing-flavored Pop-Tarts tossed out the idea on social media, Hidden Valley Ranch was all in on whipping up such a snack. The brand’s official account retweeted a user's suggestion and asked Pop-Tarts to team up, “Hey @PopTartUS – let’s have some fun and give the people what they want,” it wrote.

Kellogg has expanded its Pop-Tarts portfolio to include flavors such as strawberry milkshake and brownie batter. But the cereal and breakfast food maker declined Hidden Valley's offer, responding on Twitter with “lol no."

A Kellogg representative confirmed that the company is not producing the flavor and hasn’t planned to develop one.

Pff, as If Fances Yue is a credible source in the industrial food complex? he's the click bait trash collater and so called 'writer' of already-a-joke publication "usa Today". You might as well be citing stephanie meyer as a source of newsworthy informacion. Wake me up from my hyper-stative nap-tosis when The Times has something real to report on this debacle.

Back 100 years ago when I used to spend most of my time designing/programming machine/process controls for industrial automation, I spent a fair amount of time in "Cereal City", also known as Battle Creek, MI. where Kellogg, General Mills, etc. all made that stuff some of us eat for breakfast/snacks.

Little known fact? The food is almost free, relative to the packaging/marketing. That's far and away the bulk of what you pay for. Also, you wanna see the production guys panic? Let the production line stop for any amount of time at all and watch 'em run for the "vitamin" spray dispenser. It's the only part of the foodstuff they care about, as it's the only thing that costs them any real money. Corn Flakes, Cheerios, Kix, Cap'n Crunch? Who cares? Save those damn vitamins! LOL!

Hehe! Yeah, I know. But, it seems like a major pushback that makes sense, so there's the dreaded confirmation bias thing going on there...

We all know lunch is just the devil's breakfast so there's basically no #diff

Johnny Kellogg was essents (short for essentially) a genius AND a crazy person - the dichotomy of which cannot be understatified. We all now know vitamins are a myth ofc (of course) but germ theory is #therealdeal. I'm only awake right this now because I made my own ranch P-tarts (it's a Graham's cracker with the R stuff on top) and a side of stingray (tenderest meat in the ocean). I have so many goosebumps you could call me a down pillow

I think it's somewhat common knowledge Mr. Kellogg was unbalanced, but as I understand it after much discussion with nutritionists/dietitians/doctors, there's no mystery as the importance of vitamins/minerals, only in their marketing and usage.

Basically, there are a couple things that are always left out. One, the body will only absorb as much as it can use, which is a fairly small amount, and that many of them aren't present long enough for that to happen, so pills aren't much help unless you can slow down their progress through your body long enough for your body to absorb them. So, a multi-vitamin with your juice in the morning just gets pist out unless there's a pile of potatoes or something slowing their trek through the dreaded intestines. If you're going to go through the trouble to make food and eat enough of it to make a multivitamin worthwhile, you probably don't need it because you'll be full of food that has a great deal of that stuff in it already, considering how little you need and how slow your uptake is.

Of course, they're perfectly willing to overdose you on some of that stuff, just based on the "shotgun" effect. I know the last time I was in the hospital, they pumped enough magnesium into me to make mag wheels. Don't know where it was all going...

Hey guys, I just removed some posts and modified others for content related to Scientology and Jehova's Witnesses. FYI we have members of both organizations on this board, so please be respectful when commenting.

Yo if I offended anybody then I most humbly offer a apology. Certain historical figures get my bloods pumped, and I mightve went far in some places (shout outs to the product placement in BTTF 2). In the cold light of night and a fresh rail of Cool Ranch dust up my nose, clarity has been achieved. Gotta flush out those "vitamins".

I'm not young any more...  Maybe I never was...

You got me with on man :doh:I had to research the product to be sure it wasn't fake. Found these during the search...they need drug testing at the Pop Tart plant.
