slo’s THURSDAY 1/19 poll - Pretzels (Store bought in a bag)

[slo]

Do you buy pretzels at the grocery store?
If yes….what type(s) do you buy?
Are they for you or somebody else?
(multiple choice)

*There‘s so many pretzel choices - if something isn’t listed, please post your answer.


For Me…..I‘m the only one that enjoys snacking on some pretzels sometimes (no one else likes them)
The type(s) I buy (only a couple times a year) are waffle and tiny twists.

*Inspiration for todays poll is me having this on my grocery list for today.

 

[Kathryn Merteuil]

I usually get the tiny twists for myself... although everybody else in the house digs into the bag.

 

[Schneewittchen37]

We eat pretzels in my household. I get sourdough for DH and the kids, but I'll eat them too. And just for me, I will get giant sacks of pretzel thins. So crunchy, so yummy. DH and the kids will eat them too.

I enjoy all kinds of pretzels, though rarely buy them. Aside from the ones listed, I have always been a fan of chocolate covered pretzels too.

 

[PollyannaMom]

I love pretzels and voted for most of them in the poll. I like them plain, and also make chocolate covered ones for others at holidays. I currently have a bag of these:

 

[Kitty 34]

I will occasionally buy stick pretzels. Love them in my Lipton Onion Dip.

 

[WDWEPCOT]

I like them and I like to coat my chicken in them too ! Yum
You can make lots of candy with them too !!
Great snack !!

 

[Big V]

Utz butter pretzels are really good!

 

[antmaril]

I like pretzels, but rarely buy them. When I do, I buy Dots brand. Yummy.

 

[RedAngie]

I used to, but neither DH nor I have the desire for them any longer. Chocolate coated pretzels near Christmas is an exception. And only real chocolate, none of those “chocolatey” or “chocolate flavored” ones.

DH liked those fat ones, I preferred twists or thin sticks.

We still like Philly style soft pretzels.

 

[Meriweather]

I eat them....if I did it would be Snyder's sourdough.
I buy them occasionally for DH and the grandkids, but they really prefer other things

 

[leebee]

Pretzels are one of DH's favorite foods- that and saltines. We ALWAYS have pretzels in the house, sometimes multiple bags, every type and shape imaginable. He is a purist, so no flavors other than the occasional rye or sourdough. One of his favorites is sourdough nuggets. We usually get Snyders as that's what carried around here, other than store brand (which he doesn't prefer... the man works 2 or 3 jobs to keep the roof over our heads, if he wants name-brand pretzels, he can have them), but if we can find them, Bachman's Thin and Right (or thin and light, can't remember) are his favorite brand. I do not care for either pretzels or saltines, which works fine for me. I don't like them, so I don't mindlessly snack on them!

ETA: Sorry, I misspoke. I DO like pretzels, but only when they are covered in chocolate, hahaha! It's funny; I don't really like either pretzels OR chocolate (sacrilege, I know) but put them together? It's that sweet-salty thing... yum!

 

[Dan Murphy]

We don't normally have pretzels in the house. Once in a while, Marie will get a bag of one kind or another. When we had Natalie's two boys here every day, we had them more often.

I have a hard time turning down one of those giant, soft pretzels you might see at sporting events, WDW or the like.

 

[mumto3girls]

We often have pretzels and someone likes almost every flavor and shape so just depends on who is home (college kids) and what is on sale.

 

[Moliphino]

I never buy pretzels, I hate how they taste. Sometimes the big soft pretzels are edible, but the crunchy ones are always disgusting.

 

[easyas123]

Herr's Pub Style pretzels are big in our house.

Will occasionally get a crab pretzel when out.

 

[CynBeth]

My other family members eat the no salt ones. I have them once in a while.

 

[Minnesota!]

One of my kids has a nightly snack of tiny twists and some PB. He's been doing it for years. So, every few weeks, I buy 2 bags of the Aldi tiny twists. I love them, too, but with sour cream dip.

We've been switching away from processed grains (white and wheat) and moving toward more "ancient" grains, so this has become the pretzel in our house:

 

[mrodgers]

I don't ever buy pretzels because pretzels are pretty horrible without salt and none of them has salt on them any more. Utz would be the only ones that are half decent.

Back in my younger years we use to have Mr. Salty pretzel sticks. They were great as was the big hard sourdough pretzels. Haven't seen the pretzel sticks in forever and the sourdough pretzels have no salt on them.
