technically hot pockets are on topic because they need to be microwaved
I am only very recently woke to hot pockets because I was reading an interview with Jim Gaffigan and they had a youtube video of his hot pockets routine embedded in the article I asked my sister if she every tried them and she said they're good but Jim Gaffigan describes them as "let's take a pop tart and fill it with some nasty meat" and "they make vegetarian hot pockets for people who don't eat meat but still want the diarrhea" so I'm just looking for other reviews here but I'm afraid I'll have to try them myself because I'm really curious now my sister says she likes the cheese hot pockets |

I used to buy the Ham & Cheddar Hot Pockets to microwave as a quick lunch at work. IIRC they come with a crisping sleeve. I never did care for the pepperoni ones that pretended to be pizza. I've heard of 'Lean Pockets' (vegetables and sauce in a crust?) but have not tried them. No interest. I haven't bought a Hot Pocket in a very long time. I wouldn't recommend you waste your money.

Don't listen to what other people have to say about Hot Pockets - find out for yourself. I like Patton Oswalt's shtick about KFC's Famous Bowl. I find that Famous Bowls suits my style - it's like a TV dinner piled in a plastic bowl. https://www.esquire.com/food-drink/f...-sadness-bowl/ |

Nobody liked them. Perhaps a year or so ago I bought the breakfast ones with eggs inside. They were on sale for cheap. Again, nobody liked them. I actually don't know anyone who likes them. Who eats these things? |

"On sale for cheap" seems to be a recurring theme. Even if no one likes whatever it is, at least it was cheap. Jill |

Even if no one likes > whatever it is, at least it was cheap. Yes. I generally don't buy stuff like that unless someone requests it, or it is cheap. I no longer have asst. people in and out of my house. When I did, and they wanted a snack, chances were good that one of them might eat it. They wouldn't eat those though. |

I used to keep some in the freezer at work. Acceptable in a pinch. I tried them about 6 months ago and though they were terrible. Either I changed or they changed but now would not touch them. |

Either I > changed or they changed but now would not touch them. That's what happened here. The boxes said "New and Improved". Dominos pizza used to be terrible. When I lived in NY, it was a staple at kid's parties. I couldn't believe it because we were surrounded by good pizza and every place delivered. After I heard a boy comment, "Pizza again?", at one such party, I vowed never to have pizza at a party. I ordered Chinese food. Angela's party was a hit. We did everything Asian and even gave out fancy chopsticks for the kids to take home. Dominos has since changed their pizza. It still isn't the best but it's the best that we can get delivered in this area. IMO, there is no truly excellent pizza here unless you make it yourself. |

Tasty enough, and easy enough, but nothing I'd buy on a routine basis. |
