Snyder's Traditional Pretzels: Calories & Nutrition

Snyder’s of Hanover, founded in 1909, is well-known for its packaged pretzel snacks. Their line of crunchy pretzels are available in a variety of shapes, sizes, and flavors. My personal favorite are the larger-sized Olde Tyme.

Snyder’s Dipping Sticks Pretzels

The nutrition label for the Dipping Sticks pretzels indicates 120 calories per calories. It’s only 10 calories higher than all of the other traditional pretzels, but it made me curious so I wanted to share this difference with you.

The Dipping Sticks do not have a higher quantity of total fat, carbohydrate, or protein. Moreover, the serving size is the same (28 grams) across all styles of these pretzels.

So I don’t have a concrete reason why the calories are higher. My best educated guess is that this small difference is due to rounding.
