A traditional snack food made with dough that is baked until it has the texture and consistency desired, either soft or hard. Soft pretzels are often sold at sporting events or shows and by street vendors who provide a large connected ring-shaped snack that has a consistency similar to bread. Soft and pliable, this pretzel is often served with mustard or cheese and can also be cheese filled. The hard pretzel, which is crispy and generally salted, is most commonly available as a packaged snack food in many different shapes, sizes and flavors.
