(KOMO NEWS) – At 94 years old, Bill Post has a lot to be proud of. He’s a dad to two kids, grandpa to four, and great grandpa to 10.

Also on his list of accolades: his role in creating the Pop-Tart.

“In 1964 I answered the telephone and Kellogg asked if they could come see some of our equipment,” Post said. “I said, ‘yeah.’ They came and looked at our plant … They said they wanted something for the toaster but they didn’t know how to do it.”
