Flings reviews and discussion

The reviews had me thinking this would be inedible. While I wouldn’t say I LIKED them, it wasn’t awful and I can imagine someone liking them. The taste is a bit artificial and the aftertaste sticks around. Contains a little bit of protein and a LOT of fiber so that’s a plus. Do they taste as good as pop-tarts? Of course not. But it could be a good replacement. Honestly I think the worst part is the price. If it costs $9 for a 4-pack they should at least taste better.

I was excited to try considering I tried other brands before. Needless to say I was very disappointed in the quality and taste. Not sure why the packaging shows something that looks good versus what was unpackaged. Once I bit into It the flavor and taste was not was I expecting from a low sugar or sugar free option. I’m not sure if the store left the boxes out in the heat which would cause the whit frosting come off or if the were old. The expired dat was not there yet but I think I bought a bad batch. Not sure what flings can do to provide better quality. I hope Fling’s reads this review because I feel they should know

One box comes with four individually packaged in straight out of the factory aluminum packets and when you open them, it's looks a bit like a plain cookie x cardboard. I was ready to give it an honest shot though so I microwaved according to instructions and the door opened to reveal...a kinda shiny piece of cardboard? The thin layer of sugar had kinda melted and was sticky when I went to go take my first bite. It tasted bad, what more can I say? It was kinda gummy in texture and didn't have much flavor other than "FAKE SUGAR". Didn't ever get desperate enough to run through the rest of the box so they'll sit in my pantry forever I guess...

Honestly just hated the taste

I wanted to love these because I love a revamp on an existing product with less sugar! Sadly, these were a no go for me. First of all, I was missing flings...as in the box I purchased was not full. Second, I found them to be dry. Third, they weren't remarkable in taste. I eat a pop tart like once every 5 or 6 years and this wasn't noteworthy enough to be a replacement. Sad!

Better than the big brand. However, still pretty sweet on the fillings. Not my taste exactly. The casing feels a bit mushy. Tried two different flavors. both feel ok

I got these at my local Target and was so excited to try them. I was really really really disappointed . They have a very odd taste to them, the sugar substitutes really stuck out and not in a good way. I tried one toasted and one out of the pack and I did not like either way. This is a no for me.

There are only four pastries in a box which is exorbitantly expensive. They are overly sweet, more like a dessert than a quick breakfast. They also treated much better toasted than they do right out of the package. Overall, I would not buy them again.

I couldn’t eat this. I had one bite of the strawberry fling and ended up throwing away the whole box. I really wanted to like this given the healthier alternative to pop tarts but the sugar alternative really put me off.

I was really excited to try the sticky cinnamon but it had a slightly salty taste to it. I definitely still ate them and they were good but I couldn't get over how salty they were.

I couldn't understand the taste, texture, and the nutritional value behind this product. It was disappointing for me.

I tried this after reading the reviews here, so I wasn't expecting much. These have not that much flavor, but it's not offensive. What is offensive to me is that these have a fibrous aftertaste thing that sticks in my teeth. I really don't think these are worth it.

Warming in microwave may get exploded fillings. Eating it at room temperature doesn't taste that great. The crust is dry and has a taste that is not appetizing. The texture was ok. Though the filling has less sugar compared to its competitor brands, but it is quite sweet to me. Not really worth the price and taste.

First off, it was absolutely bare. It looked nothing like the packaging. There was no icing or strawberry on top. It's chalky, it has a bad aftertaste. I would literally rather focus on macros at other meals or snacks and enjoy a regular pop tart than ever having to try this again.

Honestly, really disappointing. I had high hopes as I used to love pop tarts, but find whatever the sweetener flavor is to taste so artificial. I will not finish my box.

I discovered these on Thing Testing and ordered the chocolate ones. I was SO excited when I saw they had arrived (in a cool package btw). I tried them right away, and they're delicious. Great texture and they definitely give Poptart vibes. Was I disappointed when I saw they only had 1 tart per baggy? Yes. Did I eat 2 of them to get the complete Poptart experience? Yes. Was that a whopping 24g of Erythritol because each contains 12g of it? Holy crap, yea! My stomach hurt so bad all night after eating them. Don't eat them before a big day or a date because you'll be passing gas and super uncomfortable. I want to give them the benefit of the doubt because I ate "too many" (2) but I don't think I'll be able to enjoy these like I wanted to. I honestly think they could do with half the sugar alcohols they contain and they'd still be delicious!

Just wow! This amazing company replicates the taste of Pop-Tarts but even better! With no sugar crash, and I get my protein intake these toaster pastries actually have no strings attached!! The kids absolutely love it! I can't believe they're healthy, and not to mention so instagrammable 😅

Brand is amazing! Product is decent but I think theres too much sugar alcohol or something that tastes fake, gives it a weird aftertaste. Product also doesnt look anything like it does in the photo.

As the creator of these delightful toaster treats, I might be somewhat inclined, but even without my personal connection, I'd still say - start your day with Flings. Why just have a regular breakfast when you can indulge in a touch of sweetness? It's the most appetizing innovation since, believe it or not, the traditional morning toast!

I'm gonna be honest- the only reason I purchased these was because they looked cute on the shelf at Target. I'm big into packaging and usually cute packaging equals decent product (at least in my experience). Man, these proved my theory WRONG. Totally inedible- I used my toaster and they came out looking sticky and... slimy? I don't know the right word, but I took one bite and threw the rest out. They were pretty pricey for four individually packaged pop tarts & now I'm bummed I spent the $8 just to throw it in the trash. There's so many better, healthy-ish pop tarts out there, don't waste your time (or money) on these.
