    The good citizens of this mighty nation have been deprived of the glory that is the Kellogg's Pop-Tart for far too long now. Since 2005, we have been patiently waiting for this most desirable of delicacies to return to our shores, but there is no end to our vigil in sight. This grievous injustice is an outrage against we who have not so much as seen a Pop-Tart in stores for four years.

    However, there is hope yet! You can do your part in returning this wondrous item to our devoted stomachs. Sign this petition and fight the oppressive capitalist regime that is the Kellogg Company!

    Do the right thing. Australia needs you.

    australia was basically a large prison colony back when britan first settled...

    That said-I think they stopped selling these is because of the insane amount of sugar content and the fact that we aussie's would complain if we got hurt by food (yes they do burn when ot of a toaster-must have been a few "dumb" lawsuits)

    But none the less-I f***ING MISS THEM!

    I think i tasted one of those, and they are really delicious but ultra sweet. Maybe Austalia wants its people not to be diabetic and fat? But the humanity, its not communism, its capitalism, they should bring back those sugary treats back to your shores if the majority craves for it.

    Don't forget the toungue burns!


    Seriously-I ahd second degree burns-and because I wasn't the brightest kid on the block it was a constant problem :(



    But I will always love them-when we got the occasional import I taught my little brother about them-he takes great care with them :)


    (also-VERY expensive, might have just slowed in sales)

    I love pop-tarts... kinda funny how I just happen to be eating one (it's morning here in the US) as I log on and see this thread about no pop-tarts in Australia or UK... I'll sign the petition just because I feel sorry for all you guys missing out on these sweet little pastries

    they are only a few dollars for a box of 12 here.... possibly because the factory is in the country...

    Wikipedia says you do.
    Unfortunately, three and a half thousand people is not even close to being the majority of Australia's population.

    Possible-they were quite a bit back in the day-or so my parents nagged about it.


    And there wasn't much in the box-enough for 2 breakfast serves (if you content with 2 tarts a morning-I ate 5 a day back then)


    If they bring them back prehaps alter the health value a tad-less sugar.

    And add more in a box.
