Soft Pretzel

Cultural Context

Soft pretzels have their roots in Germany, where they were traditionally enjoyed as a street food and often paired with mustard or cheese. They symbolize good luck and are often served during festivals and celebrations. Today, soft pretzels have found their way into American culture, particularly at sporting events and fairs, where they are enjoyed with various dips and toppings.
