No isnt that just mean! 1- you dont touch a burnt poptart for fear of making things worse, 2- an unfrosted poptart is going to be VERY uninteresting. Either way you are screwed so I would say look for a new poptart, there are alot out there.

No, but check this out...

An alarming article from The New Philadelphia (Ohio) Times-Reporter headlined: OVERHEATED POP- TARTS CAUSE DOVER HOUSE FIRE, OFFICIALS SAY. The article states that fire officials investigating a house fire in Dover, Ohio, concluded that "when the toaster failed to eject the Pop- Tarts, they caught fire and set the kitchen ablaze."

According to the article, the investigators reached this conclusion after experimenting with Pop-Tarts and a toaster. They found that "strawberry Pop-Tarts, when left in a toaster that doesn't pop up, will send flames 'like a blowtorch' up to three feet high."

Like most Americans, I have long had a keen scientific interest in combustible breakfast foods, so I called up the Dover Fire Department and spoke to investigator Don Dunfee. He told me that he and some other investigators bought a used toaster, rigged it so it wouldn't pop up, put in some Kellogg's strawberry Pop-Tarts, then observed the results.

"At five minutes and 55 seconds," he said, "we had flames shooting out the top. I mean large flames. We also tried it with an off-brand tart. That one broke into flames in like 3 1/2 minutes, but it wasn't near as impressive as the Kellogg's Pop- Tart."

If you can't find the ingredients, maybe you can get a few points for this.☺
