My guess is they think you only have the small crunchy ones in the US like these:
To be fair, when people in the US think of a "pretzel", those are the ones they think of. You can buy big bags of those in any supermarket. If you want to get a big, bready pretzel, you have to go to a restaurant.
A restaurant? What about your local bakery? Laugengebäck is amazing, you should eat more of it!
Here in Philly soft pretzels are everywhere, they're a staple. I think usually those little hard ones are just a snack for kids?
Americans usually label the small crunchy ones as pretzels and the big real ones as "soft pretzels" when the former is (apparently) an abomination
I actually don't like those ones at all, ha ha.
