What's it all about? Is there now more Pringles in a can or something? Or is it just a silly promotion thing?
What's Pringles new obsession with '90 in a can'?
I think Pringles' initial intention was to make tennis balls. But on the day that the rubber was supposed to show up, a big truckload of potatoes arrived. But Pringles was a laid-back company. They said "Fuckk it. Cut 'em up!"
Ruffles all the way! Damn you and your tennis ball can chips!
Then again, they do know that the 90s rocked, so...
" Fuck, I want Pringles now...... They used to make BACON Pringles :) MmmmMmm. "Those were disgusting. What's wrong with you?
Now you've gone and made me hungry for some Pringles.
But I don't have any. AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

You mean a truck of leftover, dehydrated french fry flakes from McDonalds. Look it up, actually their company doesn't even deny it, although they do word it pretty. I have to admit, despite how gross and terrible they are for you, they are damn good. I like the original, but they can get a bit too salty for me, the cheese-ums are decent too.
I assume it's saying that with Pringles you know what you're going to get. When you buy bagged chips, how much of that bag is empty air?

" Fritos are better. Frito scoops with chili con queso, fuck yeah! "'I had a bag of Fritos, they were Texas Grill Fritos. These Fritos had grill marks on them. Hell yeah. Reminds me of summer, when we used to fire up the barbeque, and throw down on some Fritos. I can still see my dad with the apron on. "You better flip that Frito dad. You know how I like it."'
I think they've made Pringles thinner recently so they can get more in a can. Maybe it's just me going crazy, but ever since they've been pushing this 90 in a can bullshit, the crisps themselves seem to be thinner. And I prefer old thick pringles to the new thinner ones.

" @ZmillA said:you don't think one crisp contains 50% potato product? the fact that potato is the the first ingredient tells that they have over 50% potato product, plus the fact that when you look at a crisp you see potato mash and not some other ingredient." @dbz1995 said:Something like 50%, which they do NOT have.

I counted and there were only 89 in my can, I'm gonna sue for false advertising and greivous psychological trauma!
Does anyone remember what the name of the tortilla chip product from from the makers of Pringles was called? Or if it is still available in some regions/countries? All I remember is the product was out it the U.S. (specifically the Midwest but probably was national) in the mid-80's. My guess would be sometime in the 1985-88 range. It came in a Pringles like can and had similarly preformed stacked chips made from corn meal. I remember a ranch, a cheddar, and a nacho cheese flavor. I never really liked Pringles but I liked the tortilla chip version. Unfortunately, I haven't seen the product since the mid-80's.
EDIT: Not the cardboard tasting Torengos product from the early '00s
" I hope you're all happy with yourselves. I just bought a pack of BBQ Pringles because of you!Thanks. That is much appreciated.
@Jasonofindy: My wife seems to remember something similar. I will keep goading her until she remembers :-) "
