Did you know?
Hot Pockets and similar turnovers were invented for quick, convenient meals in the 1980s.
The name “Hot Pocket” refers to its portable, microwavable design, allowing the filling to stay warm inside the crust.
They come in various fillings, including classic meats, cheeses, and even breakfast-style ingredients.
The crust is partially pre-baked, allowing for rapid heating without losing structure.
