Talk:Hot Pockets

Unverified citation
Added a request for citation due to this statement: ''Hot Pockets came under fire recently for using cheese that contained parts of deceased bovine. The courts found in favor of the food maker citing that "Hot Pockets does not claim to offer a vegetarian solution, and as such including meat in the spinach and cheese pocket is perfectly legal."'' -FoxMajik (talk) 06:48, 23 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Deleted it. Over a year later and stil no source cited. Google only found copies of this page on the subject...Barsoomian (talk) 23:33, 8 April 2010 (UTC)


 * We are back in 2014 and in the same situation. It would be good however for wiki to include also controversities including courts decision - just for historical reasons. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.22.6.203 (talk) 13:07, 1 April 2014 (UTC)

NEW "fold-away" crisping sleeve
Hot pockets have this new fold away crisping sleeve. Its amazing, someone needs to say somthing about it, but I would do it wrong. This is big hotpocket news. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.137.217.105 (talk) 21:42, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

Contradiction
one part of the article says that Chef America was sold to Nestle in 1999. Later on in the article it says the founders of the company sold chef america to nestle in 2002. there are also no citations for anything.

I dont think theres a such thing as an "alabama hot pocket"


 * Sadly, I heard of it this weekend as a sexual position. Chris 05:37, 27 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Was the Jim Gaffigan portion of this article editted for any legitamite reason? Or is it an effort my nestle to minimize criticism? Personally I consider the Gaffigan routine at least as culturally relevant as the hot pocket itself. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Special:Contributions/ (talk)

I didn't think a hot pocket was flavored "children" .. so I removed it =| —Preceding unsigned comment added by 204.186.253.26 (talk) 13:06, 1 October 2007 (UTC)

They founded the company Chef America Inc. and began producing Hot Pockets for profit in 1983. In 2002, the Merages sold Chef America to Nestlé for $2.6 billion.
 * Here's more. From this article:

From Chef America Inc.: The corporation was acquired by Nestle in 2002 for the amount of 2.5 billion dollars.  Xeysz  ☼  16:02, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

?
A link to Jim Gaffigan but no mention of him or his routine at all in the article? I'm sure a well-written sentence or two would suffice. (I'll leave it to somebody who is more eloquent and familiar with Jim Gaffigan...) 198.30.62.212 (talk) 21:57, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

I Added An Image
I added an image of a Hot Pocket. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Schuym1 (talk • contribs) 00:07, 22 June 2008 (UTC) the hot pocket was also mentioned in wizards of waverly place as a lunch pocket

For "Quote from Nestlé 2005 Full Year Financials" we should have "Nestlé's 2005 financial report states that" or something similar, with the full details of the source in a footnote.

More popular culture stuff
In the sci-fi movie The Core (2003), hacker-hero 'Rat' Finch eats Hot Pockets because they help him concentrate. RaynesParkGuy (talk) 14:02, 27 January 2015 (UTC)

Controversy
I added a section about the meat recall that happened in 2014. This will provide more current data to the article. Kt.nurse (talk) 20:26, 31 March 2015 (UTC)Kt.nurse

Edit 14 January 2016
I fixed a grammatical error and added an additional sentence in the Sales section, with an appropriate citation. Hope I did it all correctly. - Anon. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.60.102.202 (talk) 18:23, 14 January 2016 (UTC)

Stouffer's Bistro Crustini
Nestle doesn't offer Hot Pockets in Canada but does offer a similar (same?) product under the brand Stouffer's Bistro Crustini. The only source I could find these being the same is a gist of a Hot Pocket themed chatbot that posts hot pocket related messages every time someone says "hot" https://gist.github.com/csexton/930422 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.50.163.210 (talk) 05:11, 6 May 2020 (UTC)

The second sentence concludes with two full stops. Please remove one of them. 122.150.71.249 (talk) 00:49, 5 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Red information icon with gradient background.svg Not done: That's the name of the company, then a period at the end of the sentence. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 00:52, 5 January 2022 (UTC)
 * So you can remove the one that ends the sentence, causing the remaining one to serve both purposes. 122.150.71.249 (talk) 01:34, 5 January 2022 (UTC)
