Hot Pocket!

What kind of couch potato blog would this be without a Hot Pocket discussion?  Hot Pockets are an amazing food.... ummm... option?  Hot Pockets is basically a pot pie with some food in the center.  You can find Hot Pockets with anything from meatballs to cheese and broccoli in the middle.  They've even stepped it up and added "chef inspired" Hot Pockets.  Sorry to say this, but I can't imagine that anything inside a Hot Pocket is really chef inspired, but what do I know?

What makes the Hot Pocket so appealing is how easy it is to cook one.  You just take the Hot Pocket, insert it in the cardboard cooking sleeve, and pop it into the microwave for 2 minutes.  It is perfect for people on the go.  It is also wonderful for work.  You can by a box of Hot Pockets and keep them in the freezer at work in case you don't have anything else to eat and run out of money.  You can even buy Lean Pockets if you want a "healthier" option.  Also, they are really affordable, too.

I am not trying to trash talk the Hot Pocket.  I know people do enjoy them and they don't just keep them for desperate times.  One just has to be in a certain mood for the Hot Pocket.  If you want one, I do highly recommend the cheese, chicken, and broccoli.  Yum!
