Summary

In 1964, Kellogg’s launched what would become a global phenomenon — the Pop-Tart, originally called Fruit Scones — in four bold flavors that flew off shelves. By 1967, they cracked the frosting-toasting puzzle and added Milton the Toaster to the mix. Today? Over 3 million sold globally in 2022 alone. From humble pastry to breakfast icon — proof that great ideas soar. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
