‘Unfrosted’ Review: Jerry Seinfeld Directs and Stars in a Biopic of the Pop-Tart. It’s Based on a True Story, but It’s Knowingly Nuts

"Unfrosted," directed and starred in by Jerry Seinfeld, is a comedic take on the invention of the Pop-Tart in 1963. Unlike typical biopics that glorify their subjects, this film presents a surreal and humorous exploration of the breakfast snack's creation, blending historical facts with fictionalized, high-camp antics.

Set against the backdrop of cereal company rivalries in Battle Creek, Michigan, the film follows Kellogg's head of development, Bob Cabana (played by Seinfeld), as he competes with Post to develop a new pastry product. The narrative is infused with absurdity and anachronisms, making it more of a satirical sketch than a historical recount.
