Good grief, now another thing to look for that is probably amazing!!
Is it curls, or curds?
ETA: I see you probably meant cheese curls, but I don’t see that Amazon or local stores here carry them. I found a site that sells them, but they want $15 shipping so I guess I will have to wait once again until this becomes available in my area. Ugh! I bet they are awesome!

I fell for the hype. Glad I did, bought 4 large bags and had them shipped to home, Delicious! I think I'm starting to fall for Dot after staring at her picture on the package, time to put the bag away.

Another interesting and tasty “pretzel”: Keebler FlipSides (cracker on one side, pretzel on the other). About the same size and shape as plain Keebler Townhouse crackers. I keep both Dot’s and FlipSides in stock.
I usually put something on ordinary crackers, but Dot’s and FlipSides are so tasty that I usually eat them bare.
Doug,
Are these the ones?
Yep, that’s them!
Serious about crackers.

yes, my typo.
In any case, they have the hallmark of being addictive.
3 bags & shipping for around $25 seemed almost not too much.

For the longest time, our Safeway only carried the original flavor Dots. Now we have the Southwest flavor, and it seems to have pushed out the original (can no longer find the original in the store). I really like the Southwest flavor, though. I guess we'll be waiting a while for their other products, as it took a year to get the Southwest.

I've been passing by this thread never opening it, saying ok pretzels, next. Having ate Snyder's and other regular brand pretzels.
Went out to eat last night with a couple of friends. Do some shopping afterwards and walking through Meijers, one says, those Dots pretzels are good. I said, that's what the thread is about on the forum!
Bought the 'original' and tried last night and WOW, they are very good. Crisp, but not too hard and not the regular gummy doughy taste.
I dont like spicy and these are just right. As always, SigForum bring you your next "I gotta have products".

This product line surprises me on several levels; 1) as a diabetic, I can enjoy a limited amount without ruining my A1c;
2)while typically I like spicy SW recipes, I simply did not care for the 'Southwest' version;
3)My Sweet Bride, who never likes onions/etc, really likes the Original recipe;
4) the yellow of Cheese Curls does not stick to my hands....and while it is high on my current nearly forbidden snack food list, I can manage a simple 'cupful' a day without the drama of high glucose readings.

Well, being the maroon upthread who assumed that the ‘form’ or shape of the pretzel had anything to do with the thread-titled “Dot’s Pretzels” I felt a need to redeem myself by purchasing the ‘real deal’ to check them out.
Yes, I agree with many here that they are very good. I picked up a bag of their ‘Original Seasoned’ and ‘Southwest Seasoned’ (which I have not tried yet) from our local Target.
Their flavor reminds me of some of the ‘Flavored Pretzel Pieces’ offerings from Snyder’s of Hanover.

While in Target the other night to get the special cat food, after not getting hit by the red light runner, I noticed the Dot's pretzels on a shelf so I grabbed a bag to try them.
Wife liked them, and so do I.

My son stopped down earlier. He is smoking burnt ends and smoked mac and cheese tomorrow. I gave him a bag of the Dot's Crumbles I pictured back on page 2 or 3 and told him to spread it on the top of his mac and cheese the last 20 minutes or so. I've done it and it's off the hook on mac and cheese!

I just tried those. While good, the difference from crunchy Cheetos wasn’t as pronounced. Maybe a bit heavier cheese powder with a hint of jalapeño.

Same around here! They’ve started showing up in our local big grocery chain, Giant Supermarkets. My MIL texted me a pic of an end cap display of these delicious morsels at our Giant and I responded with this:

I just had a few of the cheese curls again. I'm disappointed that I can't take a liking to them maybe I'm just spoiled by cheetos. Now the pretzels, thats different those are wonderful

They now have Dot’s Pork Skins.
I tried them but they are nothing special. Just salty. Underwhelming like the Cheetos type. Not bad but nothing special like the pretzels are.

The original Dot's are amazing! I do not care for the southwest version. Looking forward to trying the cheese curls and pork skins when they are available @ large retailers in my area.

Yes we picked these up at Giant based on this thread and these are amazing. More like mini breadsticks than pretzels.
I don't think they are a regular item at our Giant yet. Just an end cap display that comes and goes.

Dot finally did ramp up production and they are everywhere. This may be the only product not in short supply. Not exactly diet food however.
Way to go, Dot.

I do love hog rinds(chicarones)....especially the hot ones, so I may have to try Dot's.

Updating this thread now that I've had a chance to try the other flavors:
Honey Mustard: Underwhelming. A bit too sweet for me
Southwestern: Had kind of an odd flavor and was not very "Southwestern" to me. I expected chili and cumin, etc but it was not that at all to me
