Are the Snyders pretzels you mentioned the ones made in Pennsylvania? We get them here in Ontario, but I've never tried the sourdough variety.

Sure, Fedexing or something similar always would be an option. I'd rather take them with me personally, though. And you know, the jars are not
lightweight. Thanks for the suggestions.
And, yes, it's Snyder's of Hanover from Pennsylvania. They are now available all over the world, but I think the sourdough variety is only available in the U.S. They even carry some varieties here in Japan. Sinfully expensive for the tiniest packages, so an added incentive to bring some back bought at reasonable prices. Maybe I'll find some other Canadian branded sourdoughs.
