Snyder's of Hanover, Pretzel Pieces, Honey Mustard & Onion

I picked up this little packet of Pretzel Pieces in the local Turkish shop. They sell an interesting selection of crispy snacks.

I've got say Pretzel Pieces are not a prepossessing looking snack. I mean, bits of pretzel apparently hit with a large hammer.... Noble Friend thought she was looking at a bowlful of brazil nut pieces. Well, why not? But then she tried this snack. Oh my goodness! I never saw Noble Friend so excited. She loves this snack! She really really loves this snack. I had to rush to the shop and buy her two more packets. Well, it is on my way to work.

Dutch taste tester loved them too (an extra packet for her as well) and I guess I'm not that surprised. Because they are a bit like the Dutch Joppie Saus crisps that they both love so much. Texture of course completely different but they have the same sort of sweet mustardy, piccalilli-ish kind of flavour. It's not really my thing because I don't like mustard. Neither does History Graduate. But lots of the reluctant taste testers rally enjoyed this crispy snack.

Dutch taste tester was also interested to note that Snyder's are based in Charlotte North Carolina where some her her best friends live. Interesting. Maybe we could blackmail them into sending supplies?

I wrote about Snyder's of Hanover Pretzel Crisps before, in this same flavour but all I had to go on was an empty packet brought home from Madrid by Tall taste tester. We've also tried Pretzel Pieces in Hot Buffalo Wing flavour. Luckily I know that buffalo don't have wings and this is a chicken flavour snack. But really, unless you speak the language, how are you supposed to know?

Guess what though? Snyder's make lots of other flavours. So we plan to try them out.

Snyder's of Hanover Pretzel Crisps Honey Mustard & Onion

The tall taste tester has been to Madrid and he brought back this empty crisp packet for me.

Yes, an empty packet. Not full of thin, crunchy pretzel crackers. He said he couldn't fit a full packet in his luggage. Fair enough. And after all, he is under no obligation to bring me anything back from his excursion to Spain.

However, it was nice of him to bring the packet so that I can look out for these Pretzel Crisps in future. And I have to say that even though I've not been able to try these, the aroma from the packet is very good.

Something to look out for, I think. And if there is anyone out there who has tried them please would you let me know what you think?

The tall taste tester bought this packet in Madrid and thought this was a German product from Hanover - in Germany. Well, you might. But in fact it seems to be an American product made by Princeton Vanguard LLC from Princeton, New Jersey and imported into Europe by a company based in Hamburg - in Germany.

Rethink your pretzel! The tall taste tester says these Pretzel Crisps are really very good.
