Here you see Jae enjoying an extra large pretzel in front of the old Sturgis Pretzel Museum in Lititz, Pa. You can visit this place and learn how they are made, and even learn how to twist them just right. http://juliussturgispa.com/
@irisn The story has it that a Monk from many years ago used scrap dough to make a treat, and he shaped it to look like crossed arms. Supposedly they were used to give out to the children after they said their prayers.
no, I know a different one. The king was looking for a new royal baker, and he announced that the baker who is able to make a bread where the sun shines through three times, will be the new royal baker.
