We Answer Hot Pockets Question

 

Okay, Hot Pockets. We see you. You want to play a game. I'll get Snacktion News to assemble in a minute to address this Twitter pandering. 

The Tastywich debuted way back in 1980 by Paul Merage's company Chef America Inc. They'd turn into Hot Pockets three years later. In 2002, they'd be sold to Nestle making Paul worth almost two billion dollars. That's a lot of lava cheese mouth.

The Hot Pocket is a calzone sandwich snack made more famous by this Jim Gaffigan bit. There are 50 flavors of them now which seems impossible. But Hot Pockets asked us to choose some and we're professional. Haha. 

Let's go to Snacktion Reporter One, Nicole Amstutz.

MTD: Nikki, which one?

NA: Pepperoni looks like play doh but I eat it.

MTD: Yeah. I ate a ton of meatballs when I was in my 20s. Let me rephrase that.

NA: Nope. We heard you.

MTD: Thoughts on Jim Gaffigan.

NA: I don't WANT to punch him in the face but if I did I feel like it would be like punching marshmallow fluff. Sink right in. 

MTD: Punching marshmallow fluff. He's stealing that for his next special.

MTD: Derwood. Hot Pockets.

DM: I bit into a Hot Pocket, it was pepperoni, back in 2002 and the cheese was ice cold. 

MTD: We went over how microwaves work in college. Remember the popcorn?

DM: Did I mistake three minutes for 30 seconds? You bet I probably did. But had I been drinking Mickeys most of the afternoon? Almost certainly.

MTD: Classy.

DM: Mickeys pairs well with Hot Pockets.

MTD: I stand by what I said.

MTD: Mike Hllywa, Hot Pocket flavors. Go.

MH: Pepperoni, 5 cheese and meatballs. I can still claim because I'm in college that I can still eat like a college student, right?

MTD: I had Sour Patch candy canes for breakfast.

MTD: How do you cook your Hot Pockets?

MH: The oven because I'm still half adult.

MTD: The right answer is air fryer.

MH: We have one. I don't know how to use it. Half adult. 

MTD: Would you like to get your family involved in this?

MH: 


MTD: Mmmhmm. Prefers creating her own Hot Pocket. Gotcha.

Well, I think this the exact feedback Hot Pocket was after. We named a Jim Gaffigan special, we unlearned how to use a microwave and Mike's family prefers a sandwich. Great job, team. You're welcome, Hot Pocket.
