Joining Tropical Mango are Creme Pies of the banana and lemon variety, as well as Peach Cobbler.<\/p>\n<h3>How are they?<\/h3>\n<p>A little lackluster. <\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/mangopoptarts2.jpeg?resize=600%2C600&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Tropical Mango Pop Tarts Crust\" title=\"mangopoptarts2.jpeg\" border=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" \/><\/p>\n<p>As you can see in the pictures, the jacket icing is nothing more than a drizzle. While most Pop-Tarts are fully iced, and a handful are naked, only a couple are adorned with a thin doodle like this Tropical Mango version. I can&#8217;t help but think these Tarts \u2014 which are very mildly flavored to begin with \u2014 would be better fully covered. <\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/mangopoptarts3.jpeg?resize=600%2C800&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Tropical Mango Pop Tarts Filling\" title=\"mangopoptarts3.jpeg\" border=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"800\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The filling itself is extremely, almost jarringly sweet, but it does bear a distinct mango flavor. Unfortunately, it&#8217;s just barely noticeable.<\/p>\n<h3>Anything else you need to know?<\/h3>\n<p>Of the four new flavors, mango is the only one with the Spanish word for new \u2014 &#8220;Nuevo&#8221; \u2014 on the box. That&#8217;s fine and all, but as we are all well aware, India actually produces and consumes more mangoes than any other nation on Earth. Therefore, I&#8217;m petitioning Kellogg&#8217;s to add &#8220;naveen va&#8221; \u2014 which is Hindi for new \u2014 to the other side of the box.<\/p>\n<h3>Conclusion:<\/h3>\n<p>Though mangoes are a perfectly delightful fruit, they don&#8217;t translate well into the realm of toasted pastries. I&#8217;d be surprised if these become anyone&#8217;s favorite. Or stick around. Even in India, where folklore says that mango trees can grant wishes.
