You're probably wondering, how did National Pretzel Day even become a holiday? In the 19th century, European immigrants introduced the pretzel to North America, specifically Pennsylvania, so a lot of the pretzel history and popularity we still see today originated then and there. Fast forward centuries, and in 2003, Pennsylvania Governor Ed Rendell declared April 26th National Pretzel Day, to honor the importance of the pretzel to the state’s history and economy. Read more about National Pretzel Day here for a quick history lesson!
