It's believed soft pretzels found their way to America onboard the Mayflower in 1620, although this has never been authenticated. It is known that enterprising colonists knew the recipe and sold these treats to the Indians, who paid dearly for them. The hard pretzel came into existence in 17th century Pennsylvania when a baker's apprentice fell asleep while pretzels where baking. When the Master Baker was about to throw out the "hard" pretzels but he decided to taste them first, he liked them and started selling them.

Today, pretzels come in all shapes and sizes and many companies experiment with flavor. Butter-flavored pretzels are favorites that have stayed in the public eye. Pretzels are great accompaniments to soups, salads, entrees and as tavern owners will attest, beer. Annual pretzel sales top $180 million and pretzels are the second most popular snack, right behind potato chips and just in front of popcorn.
