I passinonately hate Pringles!

[Unimatrix Q]

Not enough that i find the flavor and texture of them totally disgusting, they are more expensive than way better staple chips, in my town most food stores have begun replacing better chips with that trash!

And to add insult to injury, when ever i play on my phone i get pringles ads

 

[Oddish]

But... you can stack them!

 

[Unimatrix Q]

But... you can stack them!

That's also possible with superior real staple chips, which taste really good!

 

[Oddish]

Not sure I want staples in my chips. Hard on the teeth...

You can make yourself a bird beak with two pringles. It is not something you need very often. But, really, what other food affords this opportunity? You will be the life of any party or affair of state. And you can eat the Pringles afterwards leaving no evidence of your anatidean charade, beyond salty crumbs of moistureless processed potato matter.

and I think we've ALL been there.

. . . And you can eat the Pringles afterwards leaving no evidence of your anatidean charade, beyond salty crumbs of moistureless processed potato matter.

I just learned a new word today.

I used to like them when I was younger, but once I learned they were made out of super processed potato paste and whatever else they may be putting in there, I've been eating them far less. Also, for whatever reason, the chemicals they use for the flavourings, if you throw a chip into the fire, they'll emit colors just like magic fire. I've never seen that with any other chips, which just end up burning. Food for thought. Literally.

Thanks to my grandma, I love Pringles, particularly Original, but I've also grown to like BBQ and Cheddar as well. The other flavors I can pass on, and I'm not a fan of the Pizza one at all. I tried Rotisserie Chicken once and swore never to do that again.

Pringles can come up with some pretty crazy flavors at times--such as American Cheeseburger--but the crazier they get, the less they do anything for me.

Outside the US, one can get some really...interesting flavors of Pringles, like Prawn Cocktail, Crab, Eggs Benedict, etc.

I ordered Malaysian Red Curry & Tandoori Chicken Masala flavors from the UK last year.

I find the standard flavors we get here are kinda weak tasting most of the time.

This is the kind of thread I start after half a bottle of bourbon.

I love Pringles. Once I pop I can’t stop!

 

[MacLeod]

I don't mind them, but I only have a few tubes a year, i tend to prefer ordinary crisps.

In retrospect, it's the kinda thing we really all should have guessed. Naturally occurring food doesn't stack so regularly!

Also, for whatever reason, the chemicals they use for the flavourings, if you throw a chip into the fire, they'll emit colors just like magic fire. I've never seen that with any other chips, which just end up burning. Food for thought. Literally.

Now that is quite interesting!

 

[Avro Arrow]

I like Pringles, but I do try not to eat them that often... just like regular chips. I usually only buy a can anymore when some new spicy flavour pops up.

Also, for whatever reason, the chemicals they use for the flavourings, if you throw a chip into the fire, they'll emit colors just like magic fire. I've never seen that with any other chips, which just end up burning.

While that actually sounds kind of cool, one wonders why exactly you were throwing different types of chips in a fire to discover that?

I should be starting one soon!

Of course real chips are going to be better but after years of investigation I find that pringles have a place in my chip pecking order.

To me, how they are made or what they look like is not important. The important thing is how they taste and the taste like potato, sometimes seasoned potato.

I am happy I like them for another important reason, the Can makes and keeps them safe for traveling, they are not mostly crumbs come snack time.

Pringles came out here in the 70s when I was in high school. It was a thing, and I didn't pay much attention other than they were uniformly shaped and salty.

My after school snack thing was a Slim Jim, Fritos, and a big Dr Pepper.

 

[Ar-Pharazon]

A shame Pringles stopped making their version of tortilla chips. I really liked those.

 

[Oddish]

I can glom Pringles with the best of them. And actually, a can of Pringles sounds pretty good right now...

Heh, well, it's kind of a long story. But I have friends that we see every year during a camping trip, some who've been going since the 80's. It's always in the same spot, and with a rather large permanent fire circle, and that's not even the strangest thing we've put in there. I don't think I was there when it originally happened, but I think someone was just picking up waste on the ground and into the fire, and to their surprise the fire started emitting colours. Ever since then, anytime anyone has any pringles, we tend to act like we need to sacrifice one to the fire. Interestingly enough, I think the formulation must have changed recently, as I remember hearing murmurs of disappointment the last time one was thrown into a fire. It's one of those things you discover by accident.
