Pringles Poll!

haven't eaten them in foooooooooooorever but cheddar cheese easily

Soft-Shelled Crab
Grilled Shrimp
Seaweed
Blueberry & Hazelnut
Lemon

these aren't american releases right?

have always thought these are disgusting

xp nope - those are/were on the asian market allegedly

they are pretty much disgusting, yes

man I did NOT do my due diligence composing this poll. they make a shit ton of these things: jalapeno, ranch, bacon ranch, loaded baked potato, buffalo wing, white cheddar pop...

Blueberry & Hazelnut

what the HELL

that sounds terrible in and of itself, let alone when combined with a potato chip

pringles are not potato chips

okay fair point

"The Lord Justice Hath Ruled: Pringles Are Potato Chips"

According to the patent, Pringles were invented by Alexander Liepa of Montgomery, Ohio.[4] Gene Wolfe developed the machine that cooks them.[5] Their consistent saddle shape is mathematically known as a hyperbolic paraboloid.[6] It has been reported that their design is aided by supercomputers.[7][8]

old pringles logo so much better:

at some point it was decided that every dumb little cartoon logo drawing needed depth:

mr pringle(s?) has lost some hair as well

He now looks like a bald guy with amazing, dense eyebrows.

Is the stuff on top supposed to be eyebrows or hair? Which did they rob him of?

Dude you left off the best flavors. :(

The XTREME pringles are awful - just salt on salt and this is coming from a big salt fan.

haven't tried most of these but you missed Wasabi so I can't vote in good conscience

I was worried that the seaweed one might be made up, but nope.

yeah you're right--it's p. unclear exactly what trauma he has undergone

I think it's supposed to be hair and that maybe they ditched the eyebrows.

Curry pringles are pretty good.

didn't like em much. Kebab Pringles were nothing special either. Like Lime and Chilli best of the ones on this list that I've had.

none of them, pressed garbage shit.

anytime I eat more than 10 pringles I feel the urge to vomit

Honey Mustard sounds like something I wd kill for tho

wtf w/all you ppl not liking pringles?

I know, right?

i eat the original ones pretty often but don't really fuck with any of the other kinds

wtf w/all you ppl not liking pringles?

^^^^^^ otm

pringles are wonderful

voted original btw

I rarely eat them but when I do they're almost always the original ones and it's almost always a real treat.

could markers do a pringles POX

idk what a pox is except for a disease but i only eat the original ones so if i have to know about the other flavors to do a pringles pox then i probably can't

I ate so many of the Sour Cream and Onion ones in high school

I am sure that if I ate them now I would go into salt shock ;_;

disgusting.

the only thing worse than pringles are Munchos or Funyuns.

^^ Dead to me.

I mean sure both Munchos and Funyuns are pretty disgusting but in the most delicious way possible.

well munchos are actually gross and you can get like cape cod chips & they're much better

funyuns are one of a kind tho and they are amazing

dont even get me started on Combos.

I sort of imagine Funyuns to be a real-life analogue to The Stuff

The worst crunchy snack is Bugles.

i am pro munchos and cape cod chips. munchos are also super cheap. a good sized bag at 7-11 is $2

Cape Cod Chips are wonderful, Munchos are not in the same class. Munchos are the work of the devils taint.

x-post - ^ SNACK EXPERT btw

Bugles are horrendous as well.

mother fuckin S to the E.

as someone who used to weigh close to 300 lbs, damn right i was a snack expert

Does anyone have any information on why those ones were recalled? Poisonous?

wow

LET'S DO IT

first batch should be cilantro flavored

here is my 'pringles story'

i was doing my first ultramarathon last year, a 37 mile footrace in 85 degree texas weather on a rocky/hilly trail that started at 7pm and went overnight (i finished close to 5-6am). i was close to mile 30, absolutely fucking wiped out and weak and felt like i was gonna die, and sat down at an aid station and this lady goes "you have to go on... you're almost there! here, eat these, they help" and she handed me like 12-15 pringles and i ate them all. perfect runners' food for ultramarathons-- super salty, super carbohydrate packed, high calorie to low mass ratio, and you dont even have to fucking chew them, you just smash them against the roof of your mouth with your tongue and they shatter and you can swallow them. trust me, it sounds stupid but it gets really hard to chew/swallow once your body realizes you've been running for 9 fucking hours and basically shuts down your digestive system to focus on other maintenance. anyway, i ate all the pringles, washed them down with a cup of coca-cola (i havent had soda in about a decade, ever, other than a blanket exception for long trail runs; that shit also works wonders out there), changed socks and shirt, and after about 5 minutes suddenly i felt fucking incredible. got up, shuffled around the trails for another hour and a half at like 5:00am and BOOM-- THIRTY SEVEN FUCKING MILES.

they were original pringles btw, so i voted original.

and i dont normally eat pringles, or soda like i said, but ill eat or drink anything on a run so long as it keeps me moving

Flavours: Original, Paprika, Tomato & Mayonnaise, Jalapeno, Prawn cocktail, Honey Mustard, Seaweed Wasabi, Oregano, Pizza, Sweet Chilli, Cheddar Cheese, Thai Curry, Barbecue, Sour Cream & onion, Salt & Vinegar, Extreme Hot, etc.

ulkh

see, I rest my Pringles canisters next to my soda cans on my shelf-like abdominal protrusion.

xxp

oh my god I wish ilx still had unlimited poll options

"winter crab"!!!!!

I'm still confused by dell's pic of Old American Circus Funky Mustard flavor Pringles

Does anyone have any information on why those ones were recalled? Poisonous?

Cheeseburger and "Taco Night" were recalled in March 2010 as a safety precaution after salmonella was found in a Basic Food Flavors plant which produces the "flavor-enhancing hydrolyzed vegetable protein"(?!) used in those flavors.

sounds like taco night to me...

Whoa, let's not say anything we'll regret. If God exists, He snacks on Andy Capp Hot Fries.

http://www.candyfavorites.com/andy-capp-hot-fries

Andy Capp Hot Fries are a delicious snack with an interesting history.

Did you know that the Andy Capp cartoon character preceded the beloved chips by approximately thirteen (13) years?

In 1958, the English Cartoonist Reg Smythe first launched the cartoon strip in the Daily Mirror. It became a cult phenomenon and to this day, it is still published in over five hundred (500) newspapers circling the globe.

Yes, yes, we knew that...

sour cream & onion easily, texas bbq the only other flavour i'll buy - seaweed could tempt me though, if i'd ever seen it!

what the hell @ lemon flavour pringles, and what the HELL @ blueberry and hazelnut anything

the barbecue ones really do taste like smoked cigarettes.

kinda hate pringles but sour cream and onion or original if they're on offer.

Original, thanks. THAT'S RIGHT, I'M A PRINGLES PURITAN (tm).

whaa? i don't recall ever seeing them offered by a LEGITIMATE grocer. maybe a save-a-lot or aldi-type place... mostly i've just seen them at skeevier gas stations, vending machines of seedy motels, severely understocked bodegas that are fronts for drug businesses, that sort of thing. it's not so much that they're downmarket, even...they're just sort of, well, sleazy. compared to something more on the chaste spectrum, y'know, like a ruffle or a pringle... or even a tostito.

I know the class of snack of which you speak, but Bugles are a different scene. I've literally only bought them in Dominick's (Chicago), Stop & Shop (Mass), and Price Chopper (upstate NY), all reputable chain grocery stores. I have seen them in gas stations, but in the massive mini-marts in those stations, not in a vending-machine-in-the-service-bay kind of place.

My defense of Bugles stops, however, at their changeover from box to bag. Too many crushed corn trumpets.

lol the grocery store in my town IS a skeevy gas station

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

long poll lol

I've since experienced cheese and barbecue. BBQ definitely = smoked cigarettes, cheese are good but more than 5 gives me regret.

their Salt and Vinegar is like chemical warfare, I don't understand why they would do that to a chip. It's like an OTT wasabi sensation, too painful for snackfoods imo. and I usually love vinegar.

Original all the way. I STAND FOR PURITY

I <3 the longevity of this poll

I hope del has since had a chance to reconsider his stance. pate and tiny toasts. pfft.

i wd still vote for Wasabi

let me repost this picture

it looks like an amusement park ride

OLD Pringles
AMERICAN CIRCUS

Funky Mustard

It sounds like the title of a lost Parliament album?

:D <3

^happy about his balls guy

"ethnic spicy" flavor also dense w mystery

sooo...garam masala?

old pringles logo so much better:

at some point it was decided that every dumb little cartoon logo drawing needed depth:

Pringles is owned by Procter & Gamble, and thus like every other P&G product must have its logo mucked with every decade or so, always winding up boldfaced, italicized, 3-dimentional, and slanted upwards in a misguided effort to keep the "brand" looking contemporary.

Seaweed?

\o^0/

seaweed flavour is so goooood

I don't even buy Pringles, because I know I will end up eating the whole cylinder of chips if I do.

http://cdn.bleacherreport.net/images_root/slideshows/909/slideshow_90938/display_image.jpg

The Capital Centre (1973-1998) was the local rock arena where I grew up. I could not look at this place without thinking of Pringles.

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

Anti-Munchos sentiment in this thread is tragic.

I ride for Munchos

my opinion has always been that the reduced fat original flavor tastes better than the regular original flavor

these things are so funny, potato chips for people who are neat and fussy but still want to eat potato chips.

watched a video of a hydraulic press crushing a Pringle’s can, all the grease dripped out at once at the end like a popped zit it was disgusting 🤮

I THINK I'M BIG PRING
CHEETOS MINIS
