Editor's Pick

Snyder’s of Hanover rolled out a new Nashville Hot flavor for its pretzel pieces last month—and it broke one chicken’s heart.

In a nod to traditional Nashville Hot chicken, Snyder’s and Saatchi & Saatchi have released a new country heartbreak ballad, sung by fictional chicken-man country crooner Travis Byrd. The song, “Left Me for Pretzels,” is about the Nashville Hot flavor leaving chicken for pretzel pieces.

Fans can hear the song on Snyder’s of Hanover’s TikTok and Instagram. Viewers who interact with the post might be chosen to win a limited-edition vinyl of the song. 

The new flavor is a favorite among Gen Z, millennials, and Gen X, according to recent consumer research from Circana.
