So, after reading the thread about the "pop tart gunman", it made me crave the plain Blueberry Pop Tarts......again. :b

The good news is that they sell them on Amazon.com. I will be ordering them to be delivered to my daughter for when we fly down. The bad news is that I have to order a boat-load. 12 boxes of 8!! My grands are going to love me. :lol

roseanne, I have become a big fan of Amazon carrying products I can't get locally any more for whatever reason ~ BUT I've also found that the product manufacturer site frequently still has what I want and often at better prices than Amazon offers ~ take a look at http://www.poptarts.com/flavors ~ it DOES offer "plain blueberry" ~ good way to check prices/delivery costs ~

Sooz

Score!! I actually found them at Walmart in Montana. I bought two boxes and they are for "treats" when I'm craving them.

Another score. When we came through last Sept. I asked a manager who was in the veggie aisle if they had "Shoepeg Corn". He, and the associates who were working with him (I think they were re-arranging their displays) looked at me like I had grown another head. LOL! This time they had it!

If you've never had Shoepeg Corn, it is delicious! (may be available on Amazon.com) I make a very good casserole from it. with lots of butter and cream. Fattening, but good. When I took it to a Thanksgiving dinner it disappeared quickly. I think it is the only corn out there sold commercially that is not GM:

Shoepeg corn is a cultivar of white sweetcorn valued for its sweetness. It is characterized by small, narrow kernels tightly and unevenly packed on the cob. The corn has a sweet, mild flavor. The most common variety of shoepeg corn available today is Country Gentleman.

Shoepeg corn is popular in some regions of the United States, particularly in the South. An early promoter of canned shoepeg corn was Malcolm Mitchell of Maryland — his Mitchell's Shoepeg Sweet Corn is a brand still available today,[1] although its original center of production was transformed into Aberdeen Proving Ground soon after the U.S. declared war on the Central Powers in April 1917.

The name "shoepeg corn" derives from a shoemaking term used during the 19th century. Shoepeg corn kernels resemble the wooden pegs used to attach soles to the upper part of shoes.

Shoepeg corn is a common ingredient in salads and corn dishes throughout the Southern United States, but is relatively unknown in other areas of the country. It is on rare occasions available fresh in some areas, but it is most often canned. Shoepeg corn is also the best variety of corn for Kokanee Salmon bait.[citation needed]

Isn't a pop tart a stripper who jumps out of birthday cakes?
