Yeah... pretzel rolls are the best sort of sandwich exterior known to man.
Argumentum ad populum is going to get you nowhere.

Depends on the goal, really.
A 1/2 lb. burger on a toasted pretzel roll works for me.
Good for everything but kosher deli.
If you don't like pretzel rolls you probably enjoy penisburgers.
The bread for the greatest burger known to man, so QED.
Apparently brioche was not considered here.
Keep patting each other on the back, sheepzel bunz.
They need to make a pretzel bun that covers one of those big-assed gourmet burgers, and not merely half the circumference. That's my only complaint.

Oh. My. G-d.
QuoteHB: Do you use the pretzel bun for all your sandwiches?
CHEF [Amalia, of Kuma's Mind Control Corner]: Yep. Almost everything. All our burgers. The chicken sandwich. Our pulled pork sandwich. The only one that's not on the pretzel bun is the Slayer burger, which comes on a bed of fries. But, people will often order a bun on the side just because they want that bun.
HB: So, how has the bun worked into how you push the burger into new culinary directions?
CHEF: The thing I love about the bun is that it works in so many different facets. You can pretty much do anything with it. We made French toast with it for a special last November. It was really good!

This really made me laugh.

This madness is out of control. Behold the disturbingly intestinal-looking "pretzel croissant."

Okay, that looks like something Yeti would leave in a public toilet.

You know, of all the thoughts and images that I could possibly conjure in my head, this would not be one of them.
Damn you for making me think of this.

Or, in German, Laugengebaeck. A couple varieties of which would be the Laugenbrezel (soft pretzel) and the Laugenbrot (pretzel roll).
While there are many disturbing questions that might occur to one when examining this photo (such as "what do they do with the leftover meatotomies, anyway?"), I would call to your attention strongly suggestive evidence of what your Pretzel Masters actually look like.

I'm more offended by the continued use of the phrase "game changer" in the zeitgeist.
If this doesn't convince you people, nothing will. Compare the alleged seed syllable found on the flying skull of the original Ahkon Lhamo to the documentation above, as well as the general resemblance of the kapala to the precious "rolls."

Yeah, circle me three times and snap your fingers.
Nothing written here has addressed the actual, you know, flavor and texture of the pretzel roll.

I enjoy both the flavor and the texture of pretzel rolls. In fact, I had turkey & swiss on a pretzel roll for my lunch today and it pleased my gut. Food!

They forgot to label it as "artisan."
those are actually pretty damn good.
Now that I think about it, proselytizers for "potato bread" kind of get on my nerves as well.

I can't begin to picture the manufacturing process. Or is this a specific part of the chicken that I don't know about? Do they force the chicken to eat pretzels before they slaughter it? If it is ever on the Food Network please let us know.

Coating anything in pretzel breadcrumbs is easy enough, but I dread to think how they get chicken into rings. Do they hollow it out, like a squid?
