Is this an attack by the French? Retaliation for the whole "Freedom Fries" debacle?

[DaneMcCloud]

I wonder if this includes the 17 packs at Costco?

[Mr. Plow]

Did they really have to recall Mangino's lunch?

Have the Chinese contaminated out frozen microwaveable convenience food-like products?

I was wondering the same thing? How can they tell the difference between "foreign materials" and what they normally put on them?

I think the pepperoni Hot Pockets are pretty good for a late night snack.

If you're going to cook them in the microwave, you absolutely have to use the reflective cardboard container to cook them in. Otherwise, they're soggy and uneven.

[blueballs]

They can repackage them
and sell them in adult video stores

[Jewish Rabbi]

They did this a while ago too, only to Broccoli Lean Pockets or some shit...That's why no one heard about it besides people in grocery stores who had to pull the completely full shelves.
