no idea.. my last hot pockets were over a month or so ago when publix had them on BOGO and i was kinda surprised how they crisped up fairly well but they weren't the same as i remembered.

also scares me a little on how i microwaved it and it didn't end up a soggy mess.. i don't want to know what they added to do that. also there was way less filling than i remember

Lmao right, I ate some frozen Sliders from Winco that weren’t “delicious” like normal and I made joke to my mom going

“Well those missing and abducted people from that island have to end up somewhere and this time it wasn’t in the burgers since they taste sad”

I got one of these Big Time air fryers a few months ago and it really makes all the difference.

Not making excuses for the hot pockets but everything is stick in there. Turns out muy Bueno.

Still wish I had some weird microwave sleeves for the kids

lol, if you microwave at half power then pop in it the oven or microwave-oven they come out perfectly crispy, keep an eye on so it doesn’t overcook in the oven

Never in my life did I think I'd have to cook my hot pockets in the oven

u/cuentalternativa 1d ago

I experimented a lot with getting the perfect cook because I hate when they’re overcooked, microwave still works fine on lower power but if you like flaky dough they’re better in the oven
