As I sit at my favorite local brewery, (Kickstand) I ask everyone's opinion. Soft pretzels are great, but what's the best garnish? This pace serves with both warm cheese queso and a spicy stone ground mustard. Both are tasty, but totally different. What's your favorite? I'll have another beer and await your response.
Bigass cubes of white salt.

salt, and jalepeno cheese dip. A place i used to get pretzels from would dip the pretzel in butter before applying the salt.

This. A hundred times this. Do not corrupt my pretzel with extraneous condiments.
I love Kickstand. Haven't been there in awhile since we moved out to Howell though. Now I want beer and soft pretzels.
I do like a good spicy mustard but I gotta go with warm cheese on soft pretzels.

Beer cheese or just salt.
Mustard is for meat.
Funny, we were enjoying a pretzel at the BBQ joint about an hour before your post. Came with both queso and a slightly sweet honey mustard. Both were quite tasty. Sorry to be on the fence.

Sometimes cheese, sometimes mustard. Depends on the mood.
Cheese. Weird that's there are even other choices.
Lightly salted, maybe cheese, never mustard.

Yep, If you made me choose one, cheese. But I like both because spicy mustard is an interesting flavor.
I prefer cheese on pretzels, but I won't turn down a beer based mustard, either.

Ugh ok I hate to say it but yes. I guess I'm in the both camp
Cheese. On or in.
Or cinnamon sugar.
Mustard is gross in all its shades and textures.
I'm a supertaster, so mustard is disgusting.
Cheease is OK, but a good soft pretzel doesn't need anything except a little salt. (most of them come with WAY too much).
1st job out of college was a project engineer at super pretzel. I don’t eat them anymore. Wanna know why?

Because you were in the Mustard Camp and your boss was a Cheeser?
Superpretzels kind of suck anyway. Hanover soft pretzels are waaaaaay better.
In reply to Duke :
Eating the pretzels just off the line is better than frozen any day.
Super pretzel makes it's own mustard but also makes cheese filled pretzels. They also own federal pretzel and make all the donuts and pretzels for wawa.

Put me in the both camp as well. Depends on my mood and the quality of the specific mustard or cheese.
