"We are excited to give thousands of people a chance to get a taste of our delicious Pretzel Pieces on National Pretzel Day."

National Pretzel Day (United States)

National Pretzel Day is annually celebrated on April 26. The day was originally established more than 30 years ago by U.S. Representative Robert S. Walker (Pa.).

It was then re-declared by Pennsylvania Governor Ed Rendell in 2003 to acknowledge the importance of the pretzel to his state's history and economy.
