Where does the meat come from used in hot pockets?

Question

Is it like, the worst of the worst?

As long as eat it only a couple of times a month though there should be no problems, right?

Answer 1

I'd imagine it wouldn't be the worst of the worst, but it's probably not the best quality either. As long as you don't eat a million Hot Pockets (they aren't good for you anyways), you should be fine.

Answer 2

It comes from large-scale factory farms like the ones shown in the following undercover footage:

BTW, it's a long video, so you might want to skip to the part on FOOD.

Answer 3

When they first came out they were the best.  Now they are really gross.  I have no idea where that meat is from nor the cheese.....the cheese is liquid and I'm sure if you used real cheese in there with real meats it would work out fine......I can't even eat them any more......but a few years ago they were the best......and the calzone is nothing but a bigger nastier pocket LOL....

Answer 4

hot pockets aren't necessarily "good" for you but they wont kill you. I'm not sure where the meat comes from but it tastes like quality meat to me. I'm sure its fine. the cheese is definitely processed though.
