New Pop-Tarts Bowl reveals delicious surprise for winning college football team
Edible Pop-Tarts mascot to be featured at stadium during game
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}The inaugural Pop-Tarts Bowl for college football is coming with a pretty delectable treat for the team that wins the game.
The bowl’s press release revealed that a giant Pop-Tart will serve as the bowl game’s mascot, but there’s a pretty big feature about the mascot that the winning team will come to enjoy: It’s edible.
Yes, the mascot will be an edible Pop-Tart, which the winning team will have as a rewarding snack. We’ve seen turkey legs munched on in the NFL after Thanksgiving victories, but this takes eating after a big game to a whole new level.

"Since turning toast and jam into an ingenious toaster pastry almost 60 years ago, Pop-Tarts has always been about making the world more fun, more unexpected and more delicious for fans of all kinds," Heidi Ray, senior director of marketing at Pop-Tarts, said in an earlier press release.
