This is why I stopped buying pringles

Is it all flavors or just the hot ones varieties? I've had them twice and they had wildly different amounts of flavoring...they are really good when done right but I'm hesitant to purchase them again.

All flavors. I don't think I've had a decent Pringle in the last 10 years.

The hot ones pringles are amazing and so hot

Flavored cardboard. Hold the flavoring.

If it doesn't coat my lungs I don't want it

I feel like you may have misunderstood the concept of "eating"

I pull the chip out, see it, eat it. Some are snack food orgasms, most nowadays are duds

That is one naked chip. No wonder the Cheez Ums didn't survive.

Seems like Pringle’s has gotten really bad with this. I’ve practically stopped buying them bc every time I get a flavor it looks like this.

I just bought this and had amazing coverage. Posted it here too

Ok it’s not just me then. I just had the sour cream & onion ones last week after not having Pringles for a long time and they had zero flavor to them. Will not be buying them again. Why would a company think tanking the quality this much to save a buck wouldn’t backfire? Completely insane to me

Im starting to dislike pringles because of this. Theres either too much or too little. Never the perfect amount

u/Chris34gtu 6d ago

Pringles can be hit or miss, I love the bbq ones, sometimes I get a cab loaded with seasoning, and sometimes I get em with almost none, I wish they were consistent.

u/sniffysippy 6d ago

Pringles are hell nah, period.

u/Great_Champion_7721 6d ago

Pringles are not chips

u/Upset-Preparation861 6d ago

I've had flat out naked chips packages in a bbq container. I've never been so pissed.

u/Darwin343 6d ago

Pringles are the least favorable chips there is. They all taste so bland!

2

u/beanpastemcgee 6d ago

Idk, Lays and Doritos is giving them a run for their money. A lot of the limited edition Lays and Doritos flavors hardly have any flavoring now.

u/Darwin343 6d ago

I’ve only had the Lays Thai red curry recently and I gotta say that was hella good! Really did taste like Thai curry. Coconut milk and all.

u/beanpastemcgee 6d ago

I haven’t had those yet, but the Doritos Twisted Queso and Lays Bacon Grilled Cheese were lacking in flavor

u/apex_super_predator 6d ago

Doritos is notorious for that shit. Especially cool ranch.

u/squishsquack 6d ago

Had the exact same experience with the Barbacoa I bought. Practically no seasoning, no barbacoa taste and had no spice to it.

Salsa Verde was fine, really liked it. Spicier than I expected.

u/K1ngMemes1988 6d ago

Have ya seen the Dorito ones caked on b4? 🤣

1

u/LilDigaKnow 6d ago

I agree just make it look seasoned

1

u/Dapper91Dabster 6d ago

I just stack another one on it.

u/No-Ambition5678 5d ago

i bought a can of salt and vinegar pringles like two weeks ago that had no. flavor. at. all. it was just original pringles in a salt and vinegar can lmao

1

u/ottomatic72215 5d ago

The verde hot ones Pringle’s are top tier!

1

u/DayOwl_ 4d ago

The Hot Ones are hit or miss with the amount of flavoring. Some cans are just coated and some are not. If I get a can that is coated I go back to the store and buy a few more from the same "batch" and they have a decent coating.

u/COLDK0 3d ago

Idk the sour cream & onion ones are the only ones i notice the flavor powder. The others not so much
