As I confessed last week, I’m now a mall walker and so since I’m there, I figured I’d sample all of the food that place has to offer.
This is the second week, let’s go take a walk and figure out what will be the Northwoods Mall Food of the Week.
Here we are, another day at the Northwoods Mall.
We’re inside.
Time for me to get my walking out of the way and then we’ll pick a place to sample mall food this week.
I thought this week I’d take a few random photos from my walk, so let’s just keep moving forward!
It amazes me that there’s not one, but two photo booths here in the mall!
With everyone taking selfies with their horrible phones, how are these things still in business?
From the makers of “Get Shorty,” comes the new classic, “Get Pierced,” coming to a mall kiosk this fall!
Stay tuned, stay high and let your freak flag die.
And now, a moment of silence for a Chad Wallace mall gumball memory.
Alright…carry on!
Okay, I did seven laps around the mall today. That’s a mile and a half and I walked faster than fuck-all, time to pick up this week’s mall meal!
I decided to stop at Auntie Anne’s.
Auntie Anne’s has been a fixture in the mall for decades. It was originally located on the ground level then sometime it got moved to the upper level, just around the corner from the food court in here.
I’ve never eaten at an Auntie Anne’s, but I have high hopes since it’s been in business for so long. Of course so has McDonald’s, so there goes that theory right out the fast food window!
Alright, back to MBIP World Headquarters!

We are back at MBIP World Headquarters Dining Room And Tasting Area with a bag of Auntie Anne’s pretzel goodies.
i got the Mini Pretzel Dogs and a Cinnamon Sugar Pretzel.
These look really good! I think we’re in for a better meal than last week!
They have several different sauces available to dress your pretzels with and I got a tub of Ken’s Honey Mustard and poured that over the Mini Pretzel Bites and then added some Texas Pete’s Hot Sauce for a little kick in the pretzel pants.
Baboom!
Hot dog, these are a tasty treat!
The pretzel is warm and soft and the hot dog is tasty and juicy. The honey mustard sauce and hot sauce top these off perfectly and these are delicious.
The pretzels are cooked at Auntie Anne’s from fresh made dough and these are fabulous! We’ll have to stop back down the road and try some more of their pretzel selections!
Now we move from the savory to the sweet as we get ready to sample the Cinnamon Sugar Pretzel.
I decided to pour some honey on it and warm it up in the microwave oven.
A sweet little food hack!
And here it is…it looks…sweet!
This was the perfect sweet treat after the savory Mini Pretzel Dogs! The melted honey took it to another level of sweetness!

Auntie Anne’s gets a super-high rating of three and three quarters Stacy Hamiltons!
These were tasty pretzel treats made fresh to order at Auntie Anne’s!
We’ll definitely make another stop here in this journey as we venture to eat all of Northwoods Mall!
