I am very disappointed with the new Pringles packaging. The paper packaging is a downgrade, the crisps are no longer as crunchy and delicious as they used to be, and there are noticeably fewer crisps inside compared to the old packaging. The quality has gone down while the price hasn't. Honestly, this is a big disappointment. I preferred the old Pringles in every way. Please bring back the original packaging and quality!

Testy Poision

It's Very Testy but it's full of shits. High amount of sodium (salts) , carbohydrates, added suger , and other chemicals which prevent the food get damaged. Once u started intake it i
, then it's become addictive. Cause high BP, blood sugar, high cholesterol even at the age of 12. It's not only this product only this is same with any packaging food . Stay away from it.

Hmm - not bad

Pigs in Blankets flavour. It's good, not gonna lie. Very umami, but you have to give it a second taste in order to actually like it.

Pringles are now apselutley discusting in all flavours. They are not whay they used to be, its like eating cardboard, abd when you realise what tge ingrediance is, it makes you want to vomit.
On top of the shrinking size and high prices.
This product will soon fade out no doubt.
Vile vile product!

I think their great

Not sure why so many bad reviews for pringles? I have had the very few tubs that lack flavour, most are great and they always go down well at parties.

Absolute trash now

Absolute trash now. Used to taste good years ago. Now it’s a 20% chance you get a halfway decent tasting can, and an 80% chance it will taste like stale cardboard with a weird aftertaste. There is absolutely NO consistency in flavors between cans. The fact this company is still in business pumping out this crap is an argument against capitalism.

What has happened to Pringles

What has happened to Pringles? Where has the flavour gone? Salt N Vinegar used to wallop you round the face, the Prawn Cocktail the best on the market, and Sour Cream & Onion a tangy hit! Now since the recipe changes, you can barely taste them at all. Plus the texture is now wafer thin. Really hope they see sense and revert back to what everyone loved about them.

Bubblegum flavor?

Since when do beer cheeseburgers have a bubblegum aftertaste? These crisps taste of beer, cheese and hamburger about as much as a greyhound tastes like a moon rock. All I get a back taste of kiddie bubblegum. Ridiculous.

Shocking quality – broken chips, underfilled cans, and terrible taste

bought multiple cans of Pringles on a "2 for R95" special, but the quality was absolutely terrible.Almost every single can was a massive disappointment. Instead of neatly stacked chips, the contents were completely shattered into tiny pieces and crumbs. Worse, the containers were visibly underfilled missing about a quarter of the actual product from the top. The taste and texture were also way below their usual standard.It feels like they used a promotional deal to dump a bad, sub-standard batch on customers. I will definitely think twice before buying Pringles again. Avoid.

Salt & vinegar Pringle with no vinegar

Salt & vinegar Pringle with no vinegar.
I remember the times when you had one and could not stop until the tube was empty.
Over the past few years the quality has got worst and worst. I stop buying then think I will try again.
Each time the flavour seems to be less like vinegar but more like salted.
Tonight I have struggled to eat half a tube..completely flavorless and I definitely won't be buying anymore..The rest of the tube is binned

In my 74 yrs of life pringles is the absolute worst potato chips i ever had Anybody that thinks there good is someone who just wants filler in their gut. Bout once a year my wife gets the whim to buy, she eats a few and there sets that worthless spiral box of chips that end up where they belong, in the garbage. How they stay in business i’ll never know. I told my wife don’t ever buy or bring another box of them in our house, they’ll go right in the garbage where they belong.

I've been eating barbecue Pringles for years!!

I've been eating barbecue Pringles. Since I can remember Pringles. And I was hoping they get some better quality control. Well it's been a couple of years now I've been having this problem. And there's just no barbecue seasoning on their barbecue Pringles. It makes them taste like a stale regular Pringle. The quality is just not the same.

Beer Cheeseburger Pringle... gross!

We purchased the Beer Cheeseburger flavored chips. So nasty. After taste is definitely beer... like the morning- after-beer that's been spilled on the carpet in a frat house. Worst chip I've ever eaten, which is saying a lot. I'm not a picky eater.
