Flings reviews assert the brand can work as a lower‑sugar, higher‑protein alternative to Pop‑Tarts—many users praise flavors like Sticky Cinnamon and a satisfying frosting, but numerous reviewers find the texture gummy or dry and report a persistent artificial/sugar‑alcohol aftertaste. This helps buyers who prioritise protein and lower sugar determine Flings may satisfy sweet cravings without sugar spikes, but risk unpleasant mouthfeel and sweetener-driven taste.

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

These are nauseating. Made my husband and I sick to our stomachs from the overly sweet artificial taste. They also keep deleting my comments on Instagram - very poor customer service. Definitely recommend Legendary Foods over these.

I had hopes for this product and was very disappointed. I tried them toasted and they were a strange texture didn’t get crispy, tried them frozen and they were slightly better still very chewy/gummy. Finally I tried microwaving them for a few seconds and that was a hot mess… literally 🤣😂

The product is way too salty. The frosting is very skimpy. Overall Ok

As an 80/90s kid who grew up on Poptarts, I really wanted to like these since Poptarts are not the best for you overall. I wanted a sweet start to the day but not the Sugar rush and inevitable crash that comes with eating Poptarts. I want to start with the Value... 1 per package = 4 per box is quite expensive if you're not getting one of the initial first-order deals. So sufficed to say, I won't be reordering unless I can work some deal shenanigans. (Totally my fault for now reading the info). Let's get into he look, then we can talk about the taste. The look was like any other item that we see all over marketing... Looks one way in pictures, but when you get it live it's a big whomp whomp. Flings were no different, the images show an even layer of topping, this was a bit of a stretch. The icing was not even and spread over the entire top, nor was it a thick layer. it was very much thin and quite brittle. BECAREFUL when taking them out of the toaster, I was burned more than once by the exposed filling/icing that sticks to your hands and burns. Lastly, let's talk about the taste! Those of us that have done Keto/Atkins or any diet where a Wheat flour is used, we're used to the difference textural. Those who are not familiar might be off put by the texture and crumbliness. The Flavors totally varied from pastry to pastry, just very much, OK. What was weird for me was the really bad after taste and mouth feel that comes with certain sweeteners. It's that metallic and/or bitter taste that leaves you wanting to drink something after you take a bite. So, I guess the burning (pun) question would be. Whould I buy these again, I would have to say no. BUT! With some changes in the ingredients, maybe using Xylitol in lue of other sweeteners. This may help with that aftertaste an make it more appealing.

These really reminded my of a pop tart, especially the strawberry one. Had them mostly on the go and with a coffee, they were really good - I recommend

Honestly a delicious product, I was really pleasantly surprised, not too sweet, the pastry was softer than I expected and didn’t break or crumble which I loved, no aftertaste either. Overall a great little snack!
