Wow. It's frightening/gross to think that 762,615 pounds of just one type of Hot Pockets can be produced in only three days (at least according to the article).

Hope there's no plastic or glass in these:

Am I supposed to share this with the undergrads? I believe they are the population that eats Hot Pockets, because from what little I know, Hot Pockets are supposed to be consumed after binge drinking.

Oops.

I just had one today.

There's another one in the box.

It tasted good.

No glass got in my teeth that I could identify.

Now what?

Why didn't I see this BEFORE I bought them????

They are my son's go-to breakfast. Not those flavors, mercifully.
