Slightly off topic here but has anyone here ever tried a pepperoni roll? It took me until recently to realize that they're from WV

Describe it. I've had a few different things that were called a pepperoni roll.
 
This is how I usually eat them.

I mostly eat them on the go (they stay edible for a long time) but they're also fresh. They contain pepperoni and cheese in them but they are more complicated to make then most would assume though.
No. I've not had that. I've had bread rolled and baked with pepperoni inside the rolls and I've had basically smsll bread twists with chopped up pepperoni mixed in the dough. But yeah, that looks like a hot pocket. And if it is anything like a homemade hot pocket it isn't that hard to make after your first try.


And it's pizza night!

Pepperoni rolls are served at a few pizza places here in Houston. They don't look as yeasty as those though. They are served with marinara on the side.

They can be eaten at any temperature unlike a hot pocket. The reason: The story goes some baker up in Fairmont, WV made these so the coal miners (a large number of Italian Immigrants) could have a tasty snack that wouldn't go bad and they became crazy popular. Now days you can find these on the shelves of supermarkets or even gas stations. They can be a bit dry sometimes but I still like them

You can do the same for a Hot Pocket once they are cooked, and if you use the right ingredients. They are based off of the idea of a pocket sandwich, which sounds like what evolved from what you describe. They were sandwiches sealed on all sides so that workers could keep them in their pocket. We even have a small kitchen tool for making them that we used to make PB&J in for my daughter.

Ultimately, Hot Pocket is what you get when someone mass produces something like a pepperoni roll.

Didn't realise eggshells were nutritious till I commented on it and was told to call on my big brother google.
