Kellogg Offers New Pop-Tarts Flavors

The leading producer of cereals in the world, Kellogg Company (K) recently introduced new flavors of Pop-Tarts. The new Pop-Tarts Gone Nutty! comes in two flavors, Peanut Butter and Frosted Chocolate Peanut Butter.

Peanut Butter Pop-Tarts contains real peanut butter at the center and has sugar crystals on the outside. Peanut butter is a very popular flavor and is expected to appeal to teens. On the other hand, Frosted Chocolate Peanut Butter contains chocolate pastry crust and sweet frosting.
