    I think the hyphen in poptart is a bigger sin than the statement.

      https://trademarks.justia.com/854/44/pop-85444103.html apparently it’s the canon name and I hate that.

          The symbol you used, “•” U+2022 is the bullet, but what if the packaging is actually using “·” U+2027, the interpunct, which would suggest the product is actually called “poptarts” not “pop-tarts”. Or it might be “·” U+22C5, multiplication, meaning we could simplify the product name to “2(pt)oars”.

          Two part oars.

            I think you’re over-complicating the very obvious answer the brand is trying to convey: it’s clearly read as “two part oars”.
