Spicy Prayerful Pretzels

Pretzels were created for Lent in the Middle Ages. Fasting rules in that time period prohibited meat, dairy, and eggs. The simple, flour and water bread was born. They shaped these breads in the form of crossed arms because they crossed their arms over the breast while praying. These little pretzel bites of spicy goodness were prayerfully prepared for you by the Sisters of Benedict in Indiana.  These "sweet heat" pretzels have a mild kick and are a versatile gift for those who have given up sweets for Lent or those who need one last stocking stuffer for Christmas.

Size: 6oz bag.
