It appears that comedian Jim Gaffigan was on to something. The Hot Pockets scourge must be stopped.
If you haven’t heard his rollicking routine on what he calls a pop tart filled with nasty meat, you can watch it here (trust me, it’s worth it).
Someone, apparently, was listening, as the Nestle company is set to recall a whopping “215,660 pounds of frozen stuffed pepperoni pizza sandwich products that may contain foreign materials,” according to a story you can read here.
There were no specifics as to what the “foreign materials” are. Perhaps shards of glass? Motor oil? Would anyone be surprised if the Too Hot Pockets contained nuclear waste? Or maybe something altogether worse: Little miniature Hot Pockets?
Needless to say, if you’ve got a case of Hot Pockets sitting in your freezer, you might want to think twice before thawing one out for a little midnight snack.
As the story says …
The problem was discovered after the company received consumer complaints. The Food Safety Inspection Service has not received any consumer complaints or reports of injury at this time.
Anyone concerned about an injury from consumption of the products should contact a physician.
Consumers with questions about the recall should contact Nestlé Consumer Services Center at (800) 350-5016.
