About this deal
Mini pretzels just scream “Halloween” to me- there’s always that one house that hands out the mini bags of pretzels instead of candy.
As with any nutrition breakdown, determining if a food is “healthy” is very much subjective. But we can break down the nutrition to make that decision for ourselves. Sprinkles: Any kind will work as long as they're small. No one likes big, hard chunks of sprinkles, so I like using rainbow or nonpareils. Pretzels: I prefer to use mini pretzels, but any kind you have on hand will work. The only kind you can't use are soft pretzels.When it comes to restaurants/pubs, I’d estimate close to the Bavarian pretzel nutrition. They are typically quite large, but they are also often prepared with extra butter, adding to the calories a bit. 500 calories is typically going to be a safe bet, even if it’s not exact.

Retrieved 18 August 2010.Plus, exactly how many pretzels makes up a 1-ounce (28-gram) serving is determined by the shape and size of the pretzels, which will vary among different products. If you get a pretzel from a street vendor, I would estimate it right in the middle, somewhere between Auntie Anne’s and the Target examples. While you won’t be able to tell the exact size, it would be fair to estimate 300-400 calories for a rather large pretzel. A serving of Snyder’s Pretzel Rods (which is 3 rods) will give you 290mg of sodium. Depending on your restrictions, that may high for you.
