About the Pretzel
Did you know that the first pretzel was invented in Germany? The oldest evidence of pretzels (or Brezeln, as we call them) was found in a bakery's emblem from 1111 in the German city of Speyer.
​
In Germany, especially in Bavaria, the pretzel is considered basic nutrition. We eat them all the time, everywhere: for breakfast, for brunch, for lunch, for supper, or just as a snack. You can eat them plain or dipped in butter. You can have a slice of salami with your pretzel or a piece of cheese. You can even have a fancy pretzel with grilled cheese or ham and cheese or cheese and jalapeño or pizza style...you get the idea.
​
We love pretzels so much that every year, on April 26th, we celebrate National Pretzel Day!


DID YOU KNOW: PRETZELS ARE GOOD FOR YOU
