First, let me say that I do NOT like regular Pop-Tarts. I've tried them, and they tasted like overly-sweetened cardboard with a definite strange aftertaste. I'd only eat one again if there was absolutely nothing else in the house.

I tried Nature's Path Organic Frosted Strawberry Toaster Pasteries simply because "he" threw it into the shopping cart, insisting it had to be good. Oh, well... whatever. At least, it's organic and actually has some real fruit in it.

OK, I weakened during a mid-morning slump and I needed something to go along with my mega-cup of coffee. To my absolute astonishment, it was not just good, but VERY, VERY GOOD!

This product tasted to me like something from a bakery. The crust was flaky, soft yet a bit crispy. There is absolutely no chemical after-taste. And, there is fruit inside. Yes, I was astonished. It was not like a slab of stale jello, but real, tasty strawberry with a nice, natural taste. Furthermore, it was not overly sweet.

Not only was I amazed, I will purchase this product over and over again.
Once you try it, you will as well!

Very highly recommended.

I purchased this item after my children enjoyed this exact favor + blueberry purchased from Costco. But they said this item sent from Amazon tasted different - not fresh. Now I have four more boxed that I have no idea what to do with.

My husband and I both strongly prefer to eat natural foods, avoiding as many artificial ingredients/additives/chemical concoctions as we can. Sometimes, though, this means forgoing the bad-for-you-yet-tasty treats we grew up eating and enjoying. However, these taste SO much better than Pop Tarts that there's absolutely no sacrifice involved. (Not to mention that the AROMA of these while they're heating up is incredible. In a matter of days, you may find yourself conditioned to drool at the mere sound of the toaster lever clicking into place...Pavlov would be proud.)

The only downside (and I hope Nature's Path pays attention to this) is that the pastries are packaged in PAIRS--making it altogether too tempting to eat both. Better if the box just had ONE re-sealable pack inside; that way, you could simply open it, take the one you want, and close the package back up. With the current packaging, re-sealing isn't a viable option, and so you're kind of "forced" to eat both pastries. (I mean, you wouldn't want to let one go stale...what a waste!)

The kids love these. They are very tasty and healthier than most toaster pastries.

My kids and I love these for a quick breakfast. They are good warmed up or straight from the box, and better ingredients that traditional poptarts.

These pastries taste great! As good as as Pop-Tarts. They're organic and whole wheat (And I'm NOT fond of whole wheat, so they've got to be good). Only problem: Some of the box bottoms weren't glued shut. No biggie, though, each two-pack is wrapped.

When my husband became the stay-at-home parent, he also started grocery shopping more for our family. Problem is, he is not a label-checker and too often buys things high in sugar, HFCS and preservatives. My kids became accustomed to eating sugary cereals, toaster pastries and iced candy disguised as breakfast. When I saw these in our local coop, I thought they'd make an excellent alternative. I just tried my first one, thinking I would just have a bite and then pass off to one of my kids. Well, I ate the whole thing. Quickly. These are perfectly sweet; not too much, not too little. Much more palatable than the other, more mainstream brand. The filling tastes like real fruit! Imagine that. I have successfully moved my kids to healthy cereals and whole wheat toast, but these offer a nice "treat" for those days when we're in a rush or they are begging for a "toaster pastry." I also plan to bring some to work to keep in my desk for that midday snack. Highly recommend! My only complaint is that they come 2 per wrapper. Not sure how to keep the second one fresh? Other than that, I am a happy customer.

It doesn't taste like it has loads of sugar. Then I checked the label and EACH pastry has 19 grams of sugar. If you sit there and eat the whole bag, it's 38 grams of sugar and 410 calories combined. That's meal worthy, not a snack. It tastes very good. I didn't buy this at amazon, but at my university because I needed a snack and saw this was organic and it was very cheap. It costs 99cents plus tax for 2 pastries. I was shocked since the university jacks up the price of everything.

I wouldn't consider buying these if you want to lose weight and get a snack in the mean time. Just too much sugar for something organic.

Though in a way it isn't meant to be a health food, it's just made out of organic things. But if you are trying to lose weight and want a healthy snack, this isn't it.

These tastes more fruitful than poptarts.

Well, let me start by saying that I DO like unfrosted strawberry PopTarts. These Toaster Pastries are almost as good, as PopTarts, and as far as the organic label, better for you if you like to support organic farming, have chemical allergies, etc. PopTarts DO have real fruit, unlike a previous review implies. However, Kellogg's uses DRIED fruit, which I think gives a FRUITIER, slightly more tart flavor. I have a hard time finding the fruity flavor, fruity enough in the Nature's Path. They need to try drying their fruit, too, to concentrate the flavor. I think that most people who are health/nutrition conscious would also be disappointed to find that Nature's Path frosted AND unfrosted (blueberry is the flavor that I have, since the unfrosted strawberry is 10 bucks more than the frosted ones on Amazon...go figure) has a higher sugar content, and zero whole grain, although the overall fiber is 1 gram per serving instead of "less than one gram" on the PopTarts. I will also state, that as of yet, I have never received anything stale from Amazon. I do prefer all of my Tarts toasted.

These are great, they taste like real fruit, have a nice crust, and not-too-sweet icing. They are a treat around here since, although they are organic, they are still mostly white flour and sugar. They are way, way better than pop-tarts but more expensive and difficult to find. I had no problem with the freshness from amazon, they were nice and fresh with an expiration date months and months away. I just wish they were individually wrapped because it's so hard not to eat both at once!
