July 03, 2008 // Franchising.com // LANCASTER, Pa.- Although the debate over appropriate hot dog condiments will undoubtedly rage on for years to come, Auntie Anne's® Pretzels has a summertime offering that is a clear winner over America's typical hot dog bun. Best known for its freshly baked, hand-rolled soft pretzels, Auntie Anne's locations across the country recently added the a Jumbo Pretzel Dog to their summertime menu. This limited-time offering is a 10-inch, all-beef hot dog, wrapped in Original pretzel dough and baked to golden brown perfection.

Available from June through August, the Jumbo Pretzel Dog compliments the original 6-inch Pretzel Dog, already a guest favorite. When partnered with Old-Fashioned LemonadeTM or a Coca-Cola® beverage the Jumbo Pretzel Dog makes a satisfying grab-and-go lunch or light meal option.

According to the National Hot Dog and Sausage Council, ten percent of annual retail hot dog sales occur during July, which also happens to be National Hot Dog Month. Many of those hot dogs will be enjoyed at picnics and BBQs across the country, and no gathering is complete without mood music. Every guest that purchases a Jumbo Pretzel Dog and a 22oz. beverage will receive a Twisted Tune Tag, which entitles the recipient to a free music download (while supplies last).
