If you add fat to your pretzels, I have a problem with you and your pretzels. Its an abomination, it turns into a cracker - its terrible. Also, if its not twisted its not a pretezel, its a pretzeloid. The best pretzels Ive ever had in my life are from Martins Brothers - you can get them by mail order. --Dave Arnold on Cooking Issues
