Plastinating food items is not part of Gunther von Hagens' (72) every day routine. "However, the individual steps of plastinating a pretzel are similar to those we employ when plastinating human specimens," says plastinator von Hagens, adding: "Water and fat contained in the specimen are replaced by polymer under vacuum conditions. In order to be sure that we would be using the perfect polymer mixture, we ran a number of trial plastinations before actually working on the royal pretzels."
