Pretzels and crackers are two snacks that you’ll find in our home at all times. My whole family enjoys noshing away on crunchy salty snacks. And then we were introduced to Pretzel Crisps®. Not quite a pretzel, not quite a cracker – it’s unique! A pretzely cracker – a crackery pretzel… whatever you call it, well it’s worth celebrating National Pretzel Day with (which happens to be today by the way).
Or wait — if it’s not quite a pretzel… maybe it should have it’s own day? Well you can place a vote on the Pretzel Crisp Facebook page and vote on whether today should be their day or if they should have their own holiday, National Pretzel Crisps® Day. Voting ends today at 8pm EST so if you have an opinion on the matter, well you should make it known!
As part of National Pretzel Day celebration and as a special tahnks to their wonderful, supportive fans, they will be giving away a mystery gift today! TO find out what it is and calim a gfit for you and a friend, stop by the Pretzel Crisps Facebook page starting at 8am EST today.
Pretzel Crisps come in a lot of flavors: Original, Garlic Parmesan, Buffalo Wing, Everything, Sesame, Jalapeño Jack, Chipotle Cheddar, Classic, Supreme, Tuscan Three Cheese and Cinnamon Toast.
