Don’t judge my dinner lol. It was a long day and I wanted something quick and easy. Defrosted the chops, got them ready to coat, and, what’s this? No bags? Surely this must be a manufacturing anomaly.

Nope. I go back into the pantry and grab the newer box, open it, and…also no bags.

Had to waste one of the good, gallon-size Ziplocs for this.

How many fractions of a penny did they save (and not pass on to me) by not including the shake bags? Ugh!

    Haven’t had those in forever but you could probably pop them in the air fryer or even the toaster oven for half that time.

    The last time I recall eating a Hot Pocket was in like 2014 during a week-long power outage. Was using a propane heater to not freeze to death and put the hot pockets over top of that on a wire rack. They came out surprisingly good 😆

      I think they added an air fryer cook method to the instructions as well. I didn’t want to deal with getting the air fryer out for a freaking hot pocket of all things.

        My air fryer never leaves the counter, but it’s also a toaster oven and grill. I can easily cook for the two of us with that and haven’t baked anything in the big oven in months.

        The grill plate works great but it’s a PITA to clean up after grilling something that splatters a lot, so I don’t use that much.
