Taste: These pretzel rods had the same diameter as your typical cigar-style pretzel rods, but they were quite a bit shorter, at probably half the length. They had a minimal amount of salt on them, so they were less flavorful than your average pretzels. Our tasters had these at a bar with various beers, and almost everyone who tried them liked them.
"Don't spare the rods ... Spoil the child! The genesis of Newman's Own Organics and the pretzel: My father is a wonderful guy, enlightened and philanthropic, with an original perspective on just about everything. But when it comes to eating right, he just lucky that pretzels and popcorn are good for him. So after a year of toiling in the kitchen, I knew I had a pretzel Dad would kill for."
