Finely mince fresh Italian Parsley, Basil, Oregano, Rosemary, and Thyme and add them to a wide, shallow bowl along with Red Pepper Flakes. Then, use a fork to combine everything. Set the bowl aside until ready to use.
Partially unwrap one Laughing Cow Spreadable Cheese Wedge by removing the foil from the front and bottom. Break a pretzel stick in half and insert the half into the center of the bottom of the cheese wedge. Carefully remove the rest of the foil and place it on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Sprinkle the tops of the cheese wedges with a pinch of Garlic Powder.
Holding the pretzel, carefully place the cheese wedge into the prepared herbs. Roll the cheese wedge around several times until all the sides are coated in the herb mixture.
Place the coated cheese wedge on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Repeat steps two through four with the remaining cheese wedges. Serve immediately.

The cheese will get soft very quickly, so it's best to put most of it in the refrigerator. You should work with the wedges in batches, only a couple at a time.
If the cheese wedges begin to crack or separate, gently use your fingers to press the cheese back together.
