Why Haven't I Seen These Before?

I like to think this amazing idea was the pet project of some slightly mad gluttonous crab lover (like me) working away in his secluded kitchen. But in fact I've now seen these crab topped pretzels in more than one Maryland location. The soft East coast style pretzels are topped with a loose crab topping -- more like a crab imperial than a crab dip. The whole deliciousness is baked in the oven so the pretzel is warm  (and a bit crisp if you are lucky) and the topping bubbling.
Two East coast favorites in one dish. Why didn't I think of this?
