Yes, my ~southern Midwest AmEnglish says it that way. Much like "Strudel", actually, but with a rather Anglo "s" swapped for the "d" and probably a bit careless with the last vowel compared to the German pronunciation.

(I know enough German that the original pronunciation oughtn't actually be surprising, but I'd just never thought to re-examine the word with a thought to German phonology.)
