    My guess is they think you only have the small crunchy ones in the US like these:

      To be fair, when people in the US think of a “pretzel”, those are the ones they think of. You can buy big bags of those in any supermarket. If you want to get a big, bready pretzel, you have to go to a restaurant.

        Here in Philly soft pretzels are everywhere, they’re a staple. I think usually those little hard ones are just a snack for kids?

        Americans usually label the small crunchy ones as pretzels and the big real ones as “soft pretzels” when the former is (apparently) an abomination
