A pizza flavored Hot Pocket is just a calzone…

A warm Hot Pocket is a prison fifi you can eat after.
Thanks Mr Fart
Miss Fart, looking for a Mr to make me a Mrs.
How you doing?
The Low-Cal Calzone Zone! 😀
Yes, and so are burritos, corndogs, whole pies, dumplings, pop-tarts, and uncrustables. And presumably non-pizza-flavored Hot Pockets.
This is a case for the cube rule!
Based on the cube rule every hot pocket is a calzone
I thought a hot pocket was the American version of a meat pie. No?
We call that a Pot Pie
Stromboli actually. Strombolis have pizza sauce like the pockets, calzones require ricotta and no sauce (you dip em in marinara).
Calzones aren’t supposed to have sauce inside though
You’re probably thinking of a stromboli.
You’re thinking of a pizza roll
Probably.
Honestly it’s so weird. I’ve been all over and have seen a lot of calzones with sauce inside, and I’ve seen most strombolis without sauce but with ricotta. But it’s still a gamble unless their menu specifically says how they make it.
I prefer the sauce on the side, so I usually get a stromboli, ask for a container of sauce, and roll the dice unless it’s a place I know.
Like all exported recipes, it’s regional. It’s like how American pizza is quite different from Italy. But true pizza isn’t the #1 food in the world, now is it? I mean American pizza probably isn’t either when other cuisines win by shear population by who’s counting
Wait, really? My world is shaken
Lol it’s regional and always fun to stir shit up and make people argue their locally-adjusted version of an imported recipe is correct. Most places do not put sauce inside though and many don’t even serve the sauce
Please start a battle with Wikipedia editors over the tomato sauce calzone in this article.
… Did you read your own link or no? It says “some places put sauce on top right before serving” which is what’s pictured
I’m referring to the picture, which has sauce. Which I thought was funny.
Fair, it is a very saucy calzone that definitely looks like some sauce is inside, though it may just be diced tomato under a sauce glop
We’re going to have to call in the calzone forensics team to do some splatter analysis on that interior sauce.
Wait what
A calzone doesn’t have tomatoe sauce in it. Also this is a terrible insult to calzones everywhere.
Wikipedia wants to fight you over that statement
This looks like it has sauce ON it. Like a calzone.
If it is the same as a calzone, but has sauce IN it, then its not a calzone, its a stromboli.
Good point. This calzone checks out.
