Hormel has rolled out their new pretzel bites and cheese tray, an addition to the Hormel Gatherings line that capitalizes on the growing snack trend, an increase in home-based working and schooling, and the move to smaller get-togethers in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. This innovation is the first of its kind for pretzels and complementing cheese cup to be sold in the refrigerated section of the deli.

Distinctive Foods, the producer of Bageldogs, Pretzeldogs, and other dough-wrapped proteins, launches Pabst Blue Ribbon Mini Pretzel Beer Brats to a national audience after entering into a licensing agreement with Pabst Brewing Company earlier this year.
