Whenever I see pretzels, I just think, ugh, that's the least appealing, unappetizing food item ever, no, thank you.

But then I randomly decide to eat one anyway and they are delicious and I think, why don't I eat pretzels all the time?

I wish I knew the origin of these crossed wires in my brain.

That reminds me that I dreamt of soft pretzels last night.

We just got some home pretzels from Trader Joe's. Yum.

i always associate prezels with ladies on a diet.
my mom was and is forever "dieting" and eats pretzels like mad. and so do scores of ladies in offices around the nation.
or, maybe that was more of an 80s phenomenon? before the whole "carb" thing...

Wow, you too? I totally think of pretzels as being gross and totally undesirable... but when I force myself to eat them I love them. When I was a kid I liked to dip the unsalted big huge Amish pretzels (the hard ones) into milk. Mmm, that was tasty. I just learned there's a brand of gluten-free pretzels that are supposed to be good. But still, I don't feel motivated to go out of my way to buy them.

I like pretzel sticks, but I do not like pretzels twisted in the traditional fashion. I don't know why.

Did you get the peanut butter filled ones? That shit is delicious.

[thebrownhornet.livejournal.com]

Yeah? Do you heat it up? That sounds kinda nutty. No pun intended.

Oh hell yes. When I was recovering from chest surgery, that shit was a staple! I've never heated them up though. Oven? Toaster Oven? Nuke?

The peanut butter-filled pretzels at TJ's are the hard kind of pretzel, so not so good for heating. Although, maybe I shouldn't assume that you aren't microwaving your bags of rold gold pretzels.

However, if you eat the PB-filled pretzels with grapes, it's like miniature PBJ sandwiches in your mouth. I discovered this while high, but they are just as enjoyable sober.

Iiiiinteresting. I'd never done the grapes before, but I did dab some jelly on them in a post-surgery haze once I think.

Oh, I'm talking hard pretzels here. Peanut butter filled soft ones wouldn't be a bad idea though.

for some reason, i like thin pretzel sticks the best. it is all in the shape! dip them in mustard or hummus and it's a meal! yum!
