Silly Poll Time

[dunstable@mstdn.games]

@OohOkayKay giving this one to doughnuts because there's just so much more variety of flavour. If we were glazing pretzels on the regular this might be a different conversation.

[oohokaykay@beige.party]

@Dunstable
That makes perfect sense. The flavours are unendless.

I, on the other hand, eat a doughnut about once a year and generally because their nothing else available. Lol

@OohOkayKay Haven't had a donut in decades. Wish I could get pretzels like the soft pretzels I had in Germany, but so far no luck in the US

@Thorium @OohOkayKay Are pretzels a thing outside on US, Canada and Germany? They're not on our radar in the UK at least. So it had to be doughnut

@OohOkayKay I live in Bavaria, home of the pretzel. 🥨 no contest here.

[slothrop@chaos.social]

@OohOkayKay around here, if food is required for any sort of social event, fresh pretzels with butter are the default choice.

In many villages, kids are given a giant pretzel on their first day of school.

I recently overheard one parent telling another, as he was shoving pieces of pretzel into his kid’s mouth: “I have no idea how they raise kids in places where there are no pretzels.”

@OohOkayKay@beige.party as someone who is engaged to a Swiss person... i MUST say pretzel or i am a traitor /s

@OohOkayKay

Missing option: croissant

[oohokaykay@beige.party]

@sborrill @Thorium
They're not as popular as doughnuts in Canada but there's usually a few places that sell them. Generally bakeries.

[oohokaykay@beige.party]

@Thorium
That sounds like a good reason to open a Pretzel Truck ... $$$. LOL

[adhdeanasl@beige.party]

@OohOkayKay I voted donut because if you catch me on an average day and ask, that’ll be my choice. But the right pretzel can be really, really satisfying.

[oohokaykay@beige.party]

@adhdeanasl
Especially with a good condiment like spicy mustard or whipped butter.

[rhube@wandering.shop]

@OohOkayKay Nice.

[tattooed_mummy@beige.party]

@OohOkayKay this is horrible because there are so many options of each.

I vote custard filled donut

[oohokaykay@beige.party]

@Tattooed_Mummy
That's my friend's favourite. Which is nice because I can never go wrong by picking him one. LOL

[sborrill@justfollow.me.uk]

@OohOkayKay @Thorium I was in Ottawa a couple of weeks ago and we saw pretzels quite a lot in the bars, but it was only the Americans in our party that ordered them

[mrfunkedude@beige.party]

@OohOkayKay All I know is that the last time I dipped my doughnut in mustard it tasted awful.

[cstamp@mastodon.social]

@OohOkayKay Bagel.
