2. A good representation of Illinois politics. Take something that isn’t too healthy to begin with, and make it nauseating

3. People who want intertubewebbies attention;)

6. People who put mustard on pop-tarts are the same people who put catsup on hot dogs. Just wrong.

   Comment by Just Visiting Wednesday, Nov 29, 17 @ 7:19 am

7. Mustard on left over cold fried fish, yes, on pop tarts, never.

   Comment by Gruntled University Employee Wednesday, Nov 29, 17 @ 7:29 am

8. “Some men just want to watch the world burn.”

   Mustard on pop tarts is not a thing.

   Comment by Newsclown Wednesday, Nov 29, 17 @ 7:38 am

9. It’s gross, but the mustard probably is the most pristine ingredient on/in the poptart…just sayin.

   Comment by PublicServant Wednesday, Nov 29, 17 @ 7:53 am

10. Are we sure that’s mustard?

    Comment by Anonymous Wednesday, Nov 29, 17 @ 8:15 am

11. Is Amanda Vinicky behind this?

    Comment by Too Much to Handle Wednesday, Nov 29, 17 @ 8:19 am

15. We lack the culinary sense of Iowans who prefer cheese on their Pop Tarts.

    Comment by City Zen Wednesday, Nov 29, 17 @ 8:39 am

    Comment by Responsa Wednesday, Nov 29, 17 @ 8:41 am

17. Hey look, it’s Bruce Rauner’s FY19 budget plan.

    Comment by Michelle Flaherty Wednesday, Nov 29, 17 @ 8:51 am

18. This is Food Porn and inappropriate for anyone under the age of 21.

    Pop Tarts….should sue.

    Comment by A guy Wednesday, Nov 29, 17 @ 8:54 am

19. The Springfield culinary scene is improving, it’s a step up from grits

    Comment by Rabid Wednesday, Nov 29, 17 @ 8:57 am

21. Not right

    Comment by DuPage Bard Wednesday, Nov 29, 17 @ 9:15 am

22. Some people just aren’t right in the head.

    Comment by Huh? Wednesday, Nov 29, 17 @ 9:18 am

23. Now, if this was a predictor of the launch of a hot dog flavored Pop-Tart, I’d say rock on!

    Comment by Colin O'Scopey Wednesday, Nov 29, 17 @ 9:28 am

24. “Who does this?”

    The answer is nobody. Nobody does this.

    Comment by Anonymous Wednesday, Nov 29, 17 @ 9:30 am

25. If this is the start of a Twitter beef between Kellogg’s and the ISP then I am all for it. This has a chance to be the most bizarre feud since Coolio vs. Weird Al.

    Comment by Anonymous Wednesday, Nov 29, 17 @ 9:30 am

26. Pardon me, do you have any Grey Poupon?

    Comment by IllinoisBoi Wednesday, Nov 29, 17 @ 9:31 am

27. Pop Tarts (or the toasted type pastry) was invented in Illinois. We cannot stand for this.

    Comment by Anonymous Wednesday, Nov 29, 17 @ 9:35 am

28. There’s no bite out of it.
    It’s a set up.

    Comment by VanillaMan Wednesday, Nov 29, 17 @ 9:45 am

29. Pretty good follow-up from Dixon P.D. Thank God for our first responders.

    Comment by Northsider Wednesday, Nov 29, 17 @ 9:46 am

30. Also, no one I know, or have ever known, whether Illinoisans or not, does this.

    Comment by Northsider Wednesday, Nov 29, 17 @ 9:49 am

31. I know Pop Tarts. I have eaten Pop Tarts. That folks is no Pop Tart. If you have to put on mustard, I suggest a hot dog.

34. You know you will be able to get this at a booth at the State Fair next summer.

    Comment by Bigtwich Wednesday, Nov 29, 17 @ 9:59 am

35. “You know you will be able to get this at a booth at the State Fair next summer.”

    Only if they deep fry it.

    Comment by Give Me A Break Wednesday, Nov 29, 17 @ 10:04 am

36. Gross Pop Tarts as bridge builder ! left/right/center ( I hate labels) seems we all can unit behind our disgust for mustard on Pop-Tarts

    Comment by Texas Red Wednesday, Nov 29, 17 @ 10:18 am

37. Someone ruined a perfectly good pop tart for that post.

    Comment by Governin' Wednesday, Nov 29, 17 @ 10:21 am

40. Ted Allen says ” You have been chopped”

    Comment by FormerParatrooper Wednesday, Nov 29, 17 @ 12:10 pm

41. repugnant combination. Sugar and mustard.

    Comment by Anonymous Wednesday, Nov 29, 17 @ 12:43 pm

42. Anonymous @ 12:43: You might rethink that if you baste a baked salami with brown sugar and a brown mustard of your choice…

    Comment by Northsider Wednesday, Nov 29, 17 @ 1:28 pm

43. Like OW, AA is a long-time consumer of Pop-Tarts (flavor choice is crucial) and this is an abomination which should be illegal.

    As an aside, good to see the ISP and Dixon PD have a lighter moment on the Twitters. For those so inclined, ISP District 10-Pesotum has a great and occasionally quite funny octal media platform.

    Comment by Arthur Andersen Wednesday, Nov 29, 17 @ 1:31 pm

44. No accounting for taste, and most of us have “weird” food concoctions. My sister puts mayonnaise on candied yams, and my mother and I like peanut butter on our hotdogs.

    What weird food combination do you like?

    Comment by RIJ Wednesday, Nov 29, 17 @ 1:33 pm

45. is this for real? or a really great marketing ploy?

    Comment by Amalia Wednesday, Nov 29, 17 @ 1:40 pm

46. Yellow mustard should go on nothing … not even a hot dog.

    Comment by MissingBentohs Wednesday, Nov 29, 17 @ 1:45 pm

47. Frankly, I think both pop-tarts and yellow mustard are disgusting, singly or together.

    Comment by JoanP Wednesday, Nov 29, 17 @ 1:47 pm

48. It’s about time someone stood up for Pop Tarts. They were revolutionary in how they changed life in the last century.

    I still love them even after 2 toaster fires.

    Comment by A guy Wednesday, Nov 29, 17 @ 2:15 pm

49. Never heard of this! Yuck.

    Comment by up2now Wednesday, Nov 29, 17 @ 2:49 pm

50. Why take good mustard and ruin it with a Pop Tart?

    Comment by Streator Curmudgeon Wednesday, Nov 29, 17 @ 5:03 pm

51. ===Why take good mustard and ruin it with a Pop Tart? ===

    This. All day, this.
