As a German I concur. German comedy, media, public behavior is pure cringe. This is partly due to our loss of identity and culture after Germany was occupied after WW2. From this point onwards, the US started their aggressive cultural expansion with Germany as their main European base. While we benefited greatly from our US relations economically speaking, German culture never managed to recover versus the cultural onslaught by Hollywood, hence the overwhelming presence of American media in our outlets to this day.

you can use your oven to heat them. I always use my toaster oven when I make them. like the other poster said strawberry with frosting is the default flavor. the second flavor would be the blueberry. the smores flavor has strongly flavored frosting and the filling is marshmallow that isn't quite good. the frosting on the brown sugar ones is also not very good and kind of gritty. I bought a box of pop tarts on clearance last year just because it was there and marked down. I don't think I've bought pop tarts in the last 5 or 6 years other than that. they really aren't all that great. you'd be happier with pretty much any traditional pastry
