More from MLive:

A Grand Rapids man credited with inventing a breakfast staple, Pop-Tarts, has died at age 96.


William “Bill” Post died Feb. 10.


According to his obituary, Post was a Keebler plant manager in Grand Rapids in the early 1960s when he was approached by executives at cereal giant Kellogg’s to create a breakfast food for the toaster.


Post and a team of co-workers then developed the early versions of something he called fruit scones, but which soon became Pop-Tarts. They became an instant hit when test marketed in Cleveland in late 1963.

Everyone has had a Pop-Tart at some point in their life.

Huge.

He could die a happy man. And in case you missed it, here's the story behind the Pop-Tart at the college bowl game.

Here's your crown.

This is so good.

Couldn't resist. This made us laugh. Hard.

May have to get some tonight.

A hilariously touching tribute.

These keep getting better and better.

Same here.

Laughed out loud at this.

We see what you did there. Well played.

If this doesn't happen, just what are we doing here?

We bet people will leave Pop-Tarts on his grave.

Yes, moms everywhere thank you for a quick breakfast.

King.

Dark, but hilarious.
