How it differs from similar foods

How to keep the rest
To maintain their crispness, store any remaining pretzels in an airtight container or resealable bag at room temperature. Avoid exposure to moisture, which can make them soft and less enjoyable. Proper storage ensures they stay fresh for future snacking occasions.
