The sacred art of eating a pop-tart

So it's a little past 3:16am and I'm enjoying a cherry pop-tart with some milk while listening to DJ Diplo techno, and it has me thinking: does everyone have a "method" while eating a pop-tart?

I always start at the bottom, nibbling on the toasted flat edge.  From there I try to scrape the bottom jelly part with my teeth to leave the frosted top part untouched.  Usually I can only do this sections, but I think crunching into the top sans the jelly is a lot sweeter of a treat then the bottom.  Next I bite into the edges of the rectangle, which is a nice break from the frosting and center.   Last is the top edge with the cherry frosting coasting it, which is the absolute best part of a pop-tart.

I've eaten pop-tarts this way for as long as I remember though it wasn't until 3:22am a little bit ago that I realized that this is probably coo-coo.  Goodnight, folks.
