This is very interesting story. And a little creepy.
In a few weeks, Poptarts will be putting on the inaugural Poptarts Bowl in Orlando. We have to wait another week to find out but there are some pretty decent teams projected to play in the bowl game.
That isn’t the story though.
To make things much more interesting, they will have the first ever edible mascot for the game.
Yes, that is correct. An edible mascot.
The @PopTartsBowl will have the first ever edible mascot 😋
The winning team will celebrate by taking a bite out of the giant pastry 🥳🤤 pic.twitter.com/PHFHKj3uWx

The winner of the game will be able to celebrate by taking a bite out of the mascot. Before then though, the Poptarts mascot, who will still be a live person, will be all around the stadium interacting with fans and such.
Twitter obviously had a field day with this.

Not the "edible" mascot I was hoping for.

Please, please make this as disturbing as possible—have the mascot plea for mercy over the stadium PA system: "Help… they're eating meeeee!"😂 https://t.co/i84hIg7EoC
