It's National Pretzel Day: Get A Free One In Bensalem

One should never need an excuse to enjoy a warm soft pretzel, but it helps when you can get one for free.

To celebrate National Pretzel Day, Philly Pretzel Factory locations will be giving away free pretzels all day Tuesday. In addition, the first 100 customers at every location will receive a card entitling them to one free pretzel per day during the month of May.

There is a Philly Pretzel Factory location in Bensalem at 1749 Street Road.

Auntie Anne's Pretzels, meanwhile, are offering free pretzels to those who download their app. See more information here.

According to National Day Calendar, pretzels were likely invented by monks at a monastery in France.
