As a German, I’ll have to disappoint you even further: These aren’t pretzels at all.
They aren’t even bretzels
I wanted to say Brezel, but I feared that I have to explain myself. Yes. I don’t understand why english-speakers say “Pretzel” instead of how Germans say it: “Brezel”
But I don’t really care either.
Germans say it: “Brezel”
Tbf, that is not universal.
https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brezel?oldformat=true#WortvariantenMaybe, but I speak Hochdeutsch and where I’m from, we call it “Brezel”.
I do love a good regular pretzel, but IMHO, American hard pretzels are a pretty awesome snack. But yeah, they’re more like an Italian breadstick.
And also, Americans took hard breadsticks and made a soft variant of them. Us Americans like to iterate on the foods our great grandparents brought over to the colonies.
Germany has over 300 variants of bread. We don’t only have pretzels, we also have all kinds of different stuff baked in soda lye.
We even have a song about it. Baby got Laugengebäck.
I’ve been to the US. 2 times, in fact. While I really, really love american people… Your bread is pretty bad. I mean… Even our regular grocery store bread is better than what I had in the US. Which is sad. There are several articles and videos on the web that explain why that is.
It kind of depends on the state you go to. America is pretty damn big, and different regions are known for different things. Food varies a lot across the US, just as it varies across Europe.
I’m in California’s San Francisco Bay Area. And we’re bread snobs over here. I’m confident that California can throw down if brought into a bread fight.
Don’t want to offend you at all, but I’m still 100% sure that american bread isn’t as good as german bread. No matter where it comes from in america. Germans practically “live” their bread. German bread is also a UNESCO world heritage.
I’ve been to many places in the world and the world got some damn good food. Food is where Germany often lacks (in my opinion). But one single thing that I always miss when I go abroad: German bread.
I live at the border to Denmark. When I pass the border and head to the grocery store over there, the bread sucks. Like, really.
Germans are just very serious with bread and beer (I head someone call beer “liquid bread”).
Unrelated note, I’m pretty happy to be off Reddit and chatting with you about bread on Lemmy. I’d offer to send you some local bread, but I know it just wouldn’t be the same after being in a plastic bag for a week on a plane. 😆
Come to Germany and have your mind blown. 😜
Looks like they just had some action.

You might have seen too much porn lately…
Those buttholes look like bagel chips, not pretzels.
Savory sphincter spheres.

Severely prolapsed buttholes perhaps…
I have friends and family in Germany. My wife used to be married to German and used to live in Germany, so not having shit brea in the house is a priority. ;) Cool thing about German bread is that it’s super varied. Lots of different things that are all amazing.
That said, I’ll gladly bring a loaf of San Francisco sourdough to a bread fight. That bread fucks.
These pretzels are making me thirsty
Pucker up!
Your comment beneath your thumbnail is goddamned perfection.

A true delicacy in certain parts of my bedroom.
