Batches of Hot Pockets Recalled For Potential Glass

You're going to want to be extremely cautious if you have Hot Pockets in your freezer-- this Recall is no joke!

I can't even say the words Hot Pocket without hearing that catchy little Hot Pocket jingle in my head that was branded into me since childhood.  If you think biting into a Hot Pocket and burning the roof of your mouth is bad-- try biting into some glass!!

According to a recall announced by Nestle USA says that glass may be inside Garlic Buttery Crust Pepperoni Pizza Value Packs (12-Count) with the batch codes: 0318544624, 0319544614, 0320544614 and 0321544614 and a best before date of FEB 2022
