Now through September 11, pretzel fans can tune into Rold Gold's social media channels, including @RoldGold (Twitter), to find clues that point to '80s film classics, iconic '90s sitcoms, recent comedy and drama shows, sporting events, non-Rold Gold® advertising, and more moments where they'll find Rold Gold®, including the brand's newest bag design. Clues will also pop up on digital platforms like Facebook, Instagram, Amazon, and IMDB throughout the campaign, and all clues will be live on RoldGold.com as of June 27.

Actor, comedian, host, and pop culture expert Joel McHale joins Rold Gold's Gold Hunters™ campaign – acting as a clue himself as he teases a pop culture moment in which he and Rold Gold® both appear. McHale will share his Gold Hunters™ clue via his Instagram on July 6.
"Like Rold Gold®, I've been showing up in pop culture for a really long time and would even consider myself a pop culture authority," said McHale. "In fact, Rold Gold® and I share some on-screen credits – and if pretzel fans can figure out where our film careers have overlapped, they'll have a shot at winning a gold bar. Here are a few hints: friends, housewife, scheme, inspector."
"Rold Gold® has been intertwined in culture for more than a century, not only showing up for pretzel lovers as their go-to snack, but also appearing in some of our favorite cultural moments with some of our favorite personalities, like Joel," said Flavia Simoes, senior director of marketing at Frito-Lay. "We want to celebrate Rold Gold's legacy as both a beloved snack food and as a staple in American pop culture. Our Gold Hunters campaign and latest bag design speak to Rold Gold's enduring relevancy."
The famed pretzels will debut a more modern, evolved style when its new packaging arrives in supermarkets this summer. The updated design stays true to Rold Gold's signature gold and blue color scheme while bringing a brighter, fresher energy to traditionally muted pretzel aisles.
