Dot's Homestyle Pretzels Original Twists - 2.5oz

Don't get me wrong I love all the dots pretzels! But I decided to try the parmesan garlic and to me it tastes just like the original ones. Like exactly the same. I think maybe put more parmesan garlic seasoning to it 😊

These used to be my favorite pretzels. As of now, I will no longer be purchasing them. I could tell a difference from the first bite—it’s pure salt, with none of that delicious original seasoning. After eating them for a little while, my tongue is on fire! They don’t even taste spicy—my tongue is just burning. You need to fix this quickly!

My family and I used to really enjoy Dot’s Homestyle Pretzels. We bought our last bag a few weeks ago. What happened??!! They are waaayyy too salty! The saltiness covers up the original flavor of the pretzel, which is what made the pretzels stand out from other brands. Not to mention there are large salt crystals all over the individual pretzels. Whoever decided to change the original recipe should be fired! I wondered if the Dot’s Pretzel company sold out to another company, who could have changed the recipe. I am certainly in favor of growing a company and selling it for profit. However, when companies do this, sometimes things get changed for the worse. Wouldn’t you know it, that’s exactly what happened! Probably because changing the recipe makes the company more profitable, but at the expense of losing a customer or more. I’m probably not the only customer who has noticed something strangely different about the flavor. Sorry Dot’s, but the saltines now makes these formerly delicious bites downright nasty. If the original recipe is brought back, I’ll buy another bag then. But right now, the last bag we bought was really THE LAST BAG!🤢🤮 Note: I only gave one star rating because there is no rating of less than one star!

What the fudge!?!! You changed Dot’s pretzels after purchasing the recipe for $1.2 BILLION?!? Now they are YUK! They were always a special treat for us…. I bought a few bags in February which were pretty good… just bought a couple of bags for this recent Memorial Day celebration… I thought I was drunk when I could hardly taste any of the seasonings! I wasn’t drunk, because I don’t drink… anyway, decided to do a random google search on what happened!?!?! Sure as all get out! YOU RUINED A MOST DELICIOUS TREAT FOR MOST OF AMERICA!!!!! I can understand her selling out due to production!!! But changing the flavor profile so drastically?!?! If I was the woman that created the recipe, I would sue ur assets to the ground!!! Shame on all of you!!!!! You changed too many things that were always good in the beginning but then change things again and again!!! Don’t fix what’s not broken!!!!!!!

Was addicted to these, thought they were among the best-tasting snacks ever. Just bought a new bag and noticed the flavor change with the first bite. Everything that made it special is gone, it tastes so generic now, could not be more disappointed. Why must companies always do this? Hoping this was temporary error in judgment that will be corected, otherwise I have no reason to buy this product ever again.

Not even close to original Dots. Hershey will have to find a new generation who never tasted the pretzels before they bought Dots out I will never buy them again.

Loved these pretzels. Not the same. Not worth half what they were before.

These are not worth the price! Different texture, different seasoning, different product!! I know the co. sold, but come on Hershey. You can't make the same money on an inferior product.

I am from North Dakota and loved going back to get these pretzels. I can remember as far back as 12 years ago eating them every time I would go home. As soon as I hit the border I would stop at a convenience store and buy bags to continue on my road trip home. Now, it's not even close to the same taste. Less buttery, way less seasoning, and dryer. It's a shame that one of the most nostalgic food items from the state, and every single resident of the state knew of these pretzels, is now completely gone and never to return. I won't be buying these ever again, and nor will the hundreds of people that I introduced these pretzels to over the years.

Now that Hershey bought them out there is barely in a seasoning and there so expensive and they don’t taste the same even the seasoning but that could be because there IS NONE ON THE PRETZELS.#Bring back dot

Like everyone else who tried these, I was in love from the first bite. I just bought a bag of the garlic pretzels, my favorite, and will not buy them again unless they are marked "original garlic" or some such notice. There is half the flavoring on them than there used to be. Before, your fingers were covered with seasoning from the first pretzel Now it's mostly just pretzel. Also, both the original and the garlic have more of a spicy aftertaste than the seasoning that WAS on there. There was no heat whatsoever on the garlic before, and I don't recall any on the original. This past week I bought both and both were too spicy for me to keep eating. WHY do people have to mess with success??? Bad bad move.

So continues the trend of putting money above everything else! Was shocked and super disappointed to see that "Dot" sold her product and business to Mega Box Brand Hershey. Don't be fooled that Hershey has kept the name "Dot Pretzels ." This tactic is just to keep us buying the product. The truth of the matter is that these Pretzels now taste like poop!! Thanks Dot, hope you're enjoying your Pina colada on the coast of somewhere beautiful. Sellout!!

Every since the Hersey company purchased Dot's Pretzels, they have not tasted right at all. Not from when I remember them.They don't have as much flavor and the quality has gone down. They were my favorite snack of all time. I don't think I will go back to them. Please go back to the original recipe like they had before they were owned by this company.

The last two bags I've purchased have had very little seasoning, these used to be addicting but now it takes my kids weeks to finish a bag. It's a shame, but I'm not going to buy these anymore.

Corporate greed101 A. Buy a great existing product B. Cheapen the ingredients C. Wonder why sales tank

Why did you change the seasoning recipe and the quality of the pretzels. Will not purchase again. Not the same quality of product that the Velva plant made.

The original seasoned pretzels used to be great. But they have cut back on the seasoning to the point that the product now just tastes like regular pretzels. Since they cost more than regular pretzels, save your money and just buy normal pretzels.

Dots Pretzels are not the same since Hershey bought them. There is less flavor than the original Dots Velva, ND. Hershey closed the Velva plant in 2023 and now it’s just a corporate conglomerate brand. I won’t buy Dots again after Hershey ruined the recipe. Probably to save a dime thanks to accountants.

I had been avoiding the Dot's pretzel line because they always felt more expensive than say Utz. However I'm finding I now regret that, to me they are like pretzels with the same seasoning as the "Bold" Chex mix bags. They are good, crunchy, and AMAZING with hummus.

These pretzels are so tasty I love to buy these yummy snacks on a day when I have to go to work or on the go.
