minus-square seitanic ( @seitanic@lemmy.sdf.org ) linkfedilink3•2 years agoTo be fair, when people in the US think of a “pretzel”, those are the ones they think of. You can buy big bags of those in any supermarket. If you want to get a big, bready pretzel, you have to go to a restaurant.
minus-square Holzkohlen ( @Holzkohlen@feddit.de ) linkfedilink5•2 years agoA restaurant? What about your local bakery? Laugengebäck is amazing, you should eat more of it!
minus-square klemptor ( @klemptor@lemmy.ml ) linkfedilink2•2 years agoHere in Philly soft pretzels are everywhere, they’re a staple. I think usually those little hard ones are just a snack for kids?
minus-square foreverandaday ( @foreverandaday@lemmy.ml ) linkfedilink1•2 years agoAmericans usually label the small crunchy ones as pretzels and the big real ones as “soft pretzels” when the former is (apparently) an abomination
minus-square JokeDeity ( @JokeDeity@lemm.ee ) linkfedilink2•2 years agoI actually don’t like those ones at all, ha ha.
