to answer the original question....
YES, pretzels are complex carbs. Everyone here needs to udnerstand there is a difference between having a high GI and simple/complex carbs.

If I recall properly, complex carbs are jsut longer chain molecules than simple carbs. I wouldn't know if they classify them as a complex or simple. But I know that there GI index is high so I am sure that they do not have high ratios of soluble fiber or insoluble fiber which is on of the things that is usually indicative of a longer chain of molecules.
