seitanic comments on the way it is

To 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.

A restaurant? What about your local bakery? Laugengebäck is amazing, you should eat more of it!

Here in Philly soft pretzels are everywhere, they're a staple. I think usually those little hard ones are just a snack for kids?

Americans usually label the small crunchy ones as pretzels and the big real ones as "soft pretzels" when the former is (apparently) an abomination
