Just an FYI: The Pretzel Mart bakery did indeed move. Just about a mile up by the corner of Cinnaminson Ave and Rte 130!

And they’re still the best pretzels around!

I love pretzels, but no American pretzel compares to the ones sold by vendors on the streets in Germany. I miss those…

Also, my mom used to make a layered dessert she called Pretzel Salad. It is strawberry Jell-O with strawberries in it on the first layer, cream cheese and whipped cream mixed together on the second, and the bottom is crunched-up pretzels held together with butter. My favorite!! Now I need to get that recipe from her…

Pretzel Dogs are fantastic and anyone who disagrees is a liar.

First title that came to mind was “Twisted Prayers.” Looks like several other commenters are twisted too.

Are there any plans for a mental floss blog forum? The comments are part of what I love about this blog. It’d be great if there were an easier way to see which posts have new comments, and have nested threads etc

The pretzel in the pic looks quite yummy, but the thought that salt is falling into the keyboard of someone’s Macbook makes me sad.

I love pretzel dogs! Of course, I only get them at the street stands after a night of drinking, so that could skew my taste buds a bit.

I had a pretzel dog for lunch, LOL… I do like them!!!!

I’d like to see a story on hummus. Or have I missed that? I travel a lot :/

I also would love a story about gnocchi. I find it intriguing. Or cous cous. Because I love it!

“Preztels, though often considered a cheap snack…..”

Do I get a prize for finding the typo? ;-)

I’ve had a pretzel dog as well and refuse to ever buy one again. I think it was the combination of flavors and textures that threw me off.

However, using pretzel bread for sandwiches and such is a winner hands down.
