DENVER, April 23, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- April 26 is National Pretzel Day, and Qüiznos is celebrating by embodying the German spirit and introducing Pretzel Bread to its bread lineup. Qüiznos traditional Bavarian-style recipe comes straight from the heart of the Alps and offers a warm, toasty pretzel baguette with a soft bite and classic taste – wunderbar!

Quiznos launches new pretzel bread menu offerings, Ham on Pretzel Bread and Turkey on Pretzel Bread.

Qüiznos new Ham on Pretzel Bread and Turkey on Pretzel Bread menu offerings, bringing together quality ingredients, chef-created recipes and a signature toasting process, will be available starting April 26. Guests can also opt for any Qüiznos signature sub on Pretzel Bread. While Qüiznos is providing the Pretzel Bread American consumers are hungry for right now, it's up to them to bring their own accordions and beer steins, ja?

Pretzel offerings are on the rise, growing 33 percent on sandwich menus in 2014 and 170 percent since 2010. Additionally, Pretzel Bread continues to be the fastest-growing sandwich carrier on menus, followed by brioche and artisan bread varieties¹.

"Qüiznos guests are getting more adventurous with their bread preferences and told us they're craving pretzel bread," said Susan Lintonsmith, Quiznos Chief Marketing Officer. "We are confident that our customers will be impressed with Qüiznos authentic Bavarian-style pretzel recipe. Pretzel is at the forefront of the bread scene and we're proud to be one of the first major sandwich chains to offer it to our guests."
