Eat some pretzels today

pretzelsAre pretzels a "healthy" snack? Probably depends on what you mean by "healthy." They're certainly better than chips and they're low-fat, but they're also carb-heavy and have a lot of salt.

But if there's one day you should go crazy and eat lots of pretzels, let it be this one. It's National Pretzel Day! I like all kinds of pretzels.

Chocolate Fudge Peanut Butter Pretzel Sandwiches

Peanut butter and pretzels are a good combination. The crisp dry crunch of the pretzel is perfect for cutting through the creamy, sticky texture of the nut butter, and the fact that the whole combination is a bit salty makes the pair dangerously addictive. Synder's of Hanover is introducing a new product that is going to make the temptation that much stronger: Chocolate Fudge Coated Peanut Butter Pretzel Sandwiches.

The bite-sized sandwiches are about the size of mini Ritz crackers, so in each bite you'll have rich chocolate, crunchy pretzel and creamy peanut butter. Synder's actually suggests serving these with ice cream for a "fancy dessert dish" - and though that doesn't sound like the epitome of gourmet presentation, they would make a fantastic "mix-in" when crushed up with vanilla ice cream.

According to their website, Snyder's will only be selling these snacks from October through December of this year. After that, you'll have to get a bag of their plain, but tasty, peanut butter pretzel sandwiches and chocolate dip them yourself.
