If you are native to America, perhaps you take for granted the availability of freshly baked pretzels.

This trip we are in Washington State, staying with family and therefore likely to return. Always a risk of course, but the reality was it just confirmed my love for Pretzels - not the small, hard, biscuity ones that we are presented with in the UK.
