Comedian Jerry Seinfeld has stepped into the director's shoes for his new film "Unfrosted," the not-quite-true story of the creation of the Kellogg's Pop-Tart. Correspondent Mo Rocca talks with Seinfeld about working behind the camera for the first time, and calling on a bunch of his comedian friends (including "Sunday Morning" contributor Jim Gaffigan) to act in his origin tale of a breakfast staple.

One thing I've learned from studying animation is that 95% of all the best animation ever was in cereal commercials. We were all spoiled with Disney/theatrical quality animation for Lucky Charms and Froot Loops growing up and that tradition has been lost. They're kind of evil because a lot of them use sophisticated psychological manipulation, but it's still impressive. They're almost like demons or something

Grew up eating Strawberry Unfrosted! A couple years ago when prices really started to jump on granola bars and other "snack" bars, I looked at the calorie counts and determined I was just as well off eating a pop-tart compared to a Natures Valley bar. Pop-tarts are far less expensive and have about the same nutritional value?! On top of that, eat them hot or cold! I eat one at a time for a snack and have probably saved hundreds of dollars in the last 2-3 years.
