I'm spending this week trying to clear out my e-mail (in a very Unclutterer style), and I found that a lot of the stuff sitting there was from news releases I wanted to blog about.
So, be warned: It might be a weird week on the blog! Today's should hit home, though - a new locally made treat.
This new treat from Utz Quality Foods of Hanover is part of the company's Select Pretzel line of artisan deli-style snacks.
Everything pretzels are like "everything" bagels - lots of different flavors. On a bright note, these happen to meet Utz's nutritional guidelines for the "Snacking Smart" line.
They're flavored with sesame seeds, onion, garlic and poppy seeds. (Which means I can't try them; I can't have either sesame or poppy seeds due to food allergies.) They do only have one gram of fat, with no trans fats, saturated fats or cholesterol. They will be available in 9 oz. bags beginning in mid-February.
Check out www.utzsnacks.com for more. And let me know if you see them at the store!
UGH! Why mess with the already perfect food. Pretzels! Love Wege's sourdough thins.
Try the UTZ Extra thin pretzels!! They are fantastic after ice cream, or anytime you need a low-cal snack.
