It’s ok, like nothing special. Grünkohl is way better but I have another favourite. I would share it, but it’s so regional I’d basically doxx myself. And even if you’d know it, you don’t want to know what it’s made of ^^

Grünkohl is fucking amazing, yes! Spent some time in Friesland when I was younger and Grünkohl along with some good sausages and mustard blew my mind

Bestes ist Wirsing mit Kartoffelpüree. Wir nennen das "Schlappschlapp" hier.

Though what Americans think of as a pretzel is just a sad squiggle of brown dough.

Looks delicious but not overly different from what I'm used to.

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.

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

If you get the chance of eating a fresh German pretzel, please compare it to American "Soft pretzels" :)

How is that an insult? Those are amazing parts of German culture.
