Seinfeld, 69, who told \"People\" he's \"been obsessed with Pop-Tarts\" his whole life, first shared details of the comedic take on the grab-and-go breakfast invention on X back in 2021.

Here’s more about “UNFROSTED - The Pop Tart Story”
1. Yes, it is the same lunatic writing team that gave you the uncomfortable hit
“Bee Movie”.
2. The story of how the Pop Tart was invented is told like “The Right Stuff”.
3. A few parts we did not make up.
4. I work clean.

— Jerry Seinfeld (@JerrySeinfeld) June 24, 2021

\"My friend Spike Feresten, who was a writer on my show and is still a good friend of mine, thought we should make a movie out of the story, the real story, which we did,\" Seinfeld said.
