Kellogg's Peanut Butter Pop-Tart has without a doubt been one of the company's biggest products of the year, but is it truly an innovation? The Wall Street Journal explored this question:

The Peanut Butter Pop-Tart didn't exactly reinvent the wheel. A spokeswoman for the company says that peanut butter had been one of the most frequently-requested flavors, adding that while allergy and developmental concerns where obstacles, the product still "exceeded [their] expectations."

While it might not be a trailblazer, nobody is mad that this amazing creation exists, and that's all that matters.
