Except it tastes like shit because it's a hot pocket

[-] LordCirais@pawb.social 8 points 10 months ago

You don't eat a Hot Pocket for the taste.

And definitely not for nutrition.

Well, I can't really argue with that...

Stromboli actually. Strombolis have pizza sauce like the pockets, calzones require ricotta and no sauce (you dip em in marinara).

A calzone is just a folded pizza.

Yep, that's why don't have to call it "pizza flavoured".

Its best if you use home made spaghetti sauce (the kind that takes 2 hours to make and is very meaty)

I thought a hot pocket was the American version of a meat pie. No?

[-] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 3 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

No, I think we call that a a pot pie. It has a meat, gravy and a bunch of vegetables

[-] Chainweasel@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

We call that a Pot Pie

This is a case for the cube rule!

[-] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 4 points 10 months ago

No, its definitely not. A Calzone isn't what ever hot pockets are made of.

[-] kautau@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

Based on the cube rule every hot pocket is a calzone
