At least you don't live off of Hot Pockets and Pop-Tarts...
...do you?
Pop-Tarts were a snack in college, never a meal. (can you believe I've never had a toasted one?)
Hot Pockets I admittedly had for lunch all through high school and whenever I was home from college. But I haven't had a single one since I got married. GASP! It really does change you!
Heh, didn't know that was all he ate. Makes sense.

I have never in my life had a poptart or a hotpocket, nor do I ever wish to.

Damnit!
Now I want some Pop-Tarts. I hope you're all happy now!
But I'd sooner destroy a stained glass window than eat another hot pocket.

No, I really don't. I don't like prepackaged food. I can see myself making something hotpocketesque and eating, but only if I were responsible for making the dough and deciding what went into it. As for the poptart... no thanks.

Oh my gawd, I used to disect hot pockets and pizza puffs with a surgical cut and eat the innards. I never actially pinned stuff down though. That's pretty funny.

I just had a hot pocket for dinner from the campus dining hall. it was supposed to be a vegetarian "cheese pizza" pocket, but as I was eating my second I realized they had mislabeled it, and was actually a pepperoni.

hmm.. Well, I never was athletic in elementary school because of asthma (I couldn't play any sport), but now that it's gone I'm trying to do as much as I can! Even if it's only a small training everyday, or running to work.. and work itself is kind of like exercises because there is a lot of weight to lift and push (I sometime see working as a stock boy as a Zelda game, push the cart to move the lift, raise the lift to get the box, ect ect).
And with summer coming it only means.....bicycle!

I found hamburger fragments in my vegetarian pasta fagioli.

At least you didn't find vegetarian fragments in your vegetarian past fagioli...

My dad bought hotpockets a month or so ago.
They're still sitting in the fridge; no one will touch them.
But I like poptarts occasionally. They're yummy.

Ohkay, as a man of not America; What the hell is a hot pocket? It looks kinda' like a low priced, long lasting pasty with too much doughy pastry and a very strange filling. Possibly the evil cousin of pasties world wide.

Imagine the most artificial cheese and meats ever created by science wrapped in play-dough.

I knew that "pastry" tasted yucky and yet somehow familiar...
