Just What We Needed: Another Holiday-Themed Dessert Pringles Flavor

There are some things that no one asked for, yet the universe provides them to us anyway. One of them: the dessert-flavored Pringles that arrive on store shelves every year for the pumpkin spice season and for the winter holiday season. Pringles has announced this year’s selection of Christmas-ish and Thanksgiving-ish flavors, and they include sugar cookie flavored potato crisps. [More]

Walgreens Is Selling Hot Dog Flavored Pringles For Some Reason

“Try ’em,” the cardboard shelves on this Pringles display whisper to passing shoppers. The display promotes a new Walgreens-exclusive, limited-edition flavor: “Hot Diggity Dog,” which tastes like hot dogs. Probably. Maybe just salt that tastes like beef and mustard. [More]

Bacon Joins Lineup Of Ridiculous Walmart Exclusive Pringles Flavors

You know how we keep saying that “sriracha is the new bacon?” Well, over at Pringles, bacon is also the new bacon, as Pringles has introduced bacon-flavored chips to go along with the sriracha ones we told you about last week. Like those, they’re a Walmart exclusive. No, this is not a post from 2012 that accidentally got republished today. [More]

At Least White Chocolate Pringles Are Only A Seasonal Offering

We never wanted or needed dessert Pringles, but they still exist, because the world is a cruel and unrelenting place. Last year, white chocolate peppermint chips invaded grocery shelves. Deciding that this wasn’t terrible enough, this year Pringles has brought us plain old white chocolate. Wait, I thought everything for Christmas had to be mint-flavored! [More]

Kellogg Denies Having Anything To Do With Pringles Reddit Posts

Getting thousands, maybe millions of Internet users to view, like, share, and talk about your product isn’t easy. Any number of companies have tried to anonymously post “viral” content in the hope that it will spread quickly (and without having to pay for additional ads). And following a rash of funny/interesting Pringles photos popping up on Reddit, some users claim it’s a blatant marketing gimmick. [More]

Just What We Needed: Pumpkin Pie And Peppermint Chocolate-Flavored Pringles

Candy corn-flavored Oreos just weren’t enough horror for the snack-industrial complex this season. No, they had to go farther, push forward, and inflict new horrors on the noshing public. That horror: dessert Pringles. Specifically, holiday-themed flavors like pumpkin pie spice, white chocolate peppermint, and cinnamon and sugar. Well… the flavor of Pringles can be effectively described as “flavoring powder and salt,” so maybe these new offerings won’t be so bad. Maybe? [More]

In an attempt to make their company one big, happy, snacky family, Kellogg is shelling out $2.7 billion in straight-up cash to buy the Pringles line from Procter & Gamble.

Yes, Pringles Are Potato Chips

Yes, Pringles Are Potato Chips

Reversing an earlier decision, Britain’s Lord Justice Robin Jacob has ruled that Pringles are, indeed, potato chips. The decision means Pringles parent Procter & Gamble will be stuck paying $160 million in back taxes. P&G had insisted that the chips lack enough “potatoness” to qualify as a potato-based product (and be taxed as such), but the Judge disagreed, leaving it to philosophers and nutritionists to determine what exactly qualifies as the “essence of potato.” We kind of feel for P&G on this one. We love that crunch, and the way they stack so neatly in the can, but if we want real potatoes, a Pringle isn’t likely to be our first choice.

Procter & Gamble: Pringles Are Not Potato Chips

Seeking to evade a 17.5% sales tax, lawyers for Procter & Gamble successfully argued that Pringles aren’t actually potato chips. Even though all Pringles containers are clearly marked “Potato Crisps,” Procter & Gamble’s lawyers argued that “Pringles don’t look like a chip, don’t feel like a chip, and don’t taste like a chip.”
