Pringles - evil or genuis?

EVIL!!! evil evil evil - completely fake food, with flavour enhancers... delightful...

still,

I cannot help not-stopping once I've popped... as it were.... so, the only solution, not to pop in the first place :o

That's the magic of MSG :D

I am a massive crisp fan and I think Pringles taste like a dusty tax disc you've just found under the fridge.

Indeed. If I wanted to cram salted cardboard into my mouth all day, I'd...actually I can't think of a decent ending to this sentence. I'll never want to cram salted cardboard into my mouth, at all, hence I never buy Pringles because they are utterly shit.
 
Sour cream and onion flavour rule!

Problem being...

You know the old story about how to catch monkeys? Get coconut, cut a hole in it just bigger than a monkeys hand. Put nuts inside and tie the other end to a tree. Monkey puts hand in, grabs nuts, now can't withdraw hand without dropping nuts and so just sits there until you catch it.

You get very much the same effect with me and Pringles. Hand go in tube, hand not come out again unless I let go of the Pringles, and why would I do that?

However, if I ever come across two tubes there is going to be real trouble.

The single best snack in the universe is dipping salt and vinegar Pringles into Total Greek yogurt. Fact.

Doesn't work with any other brand of crisps. Gotta be Pringles. And gotta be salt and vinegar flavour.

Just don't try to work out the combined calory count :o

:eek:

Pringles are shit compared to Tayto. Now there's a crisp.

Pah, just being Irish does not make for a good crisp.

Out of interest, was the bloke on the packets called anything?

I seem to remember a name from the ads on RTE.

I'm sure he was just Mr Tayto. Some of their flavours aren't the greatest but the cheese and onion is divine.

(Did you know that Tayto was the first company to produce flavours other than ready salted in the 50s?)

"Set deep in Ulster's countryside lies Tayto Castle where TAYTO Crisps are made.....etc.":)
 
Tayto ftw!

I like their tagline "The Orginal Irish Crisp"

Is the market now flooded in Ireland with other Irish only crisps?

I have not been for five years.


What about "Farmer Brown's" Crisps - Dennis Taylor used to advertise them with the tagline "There's enough flavour there to sink the pink!"

or "Sam Spudz" - "Here's crunchin' you great big beautiful Mouthful!" The original ridged crisp with so much flavouring it used to burn my tongue.....:eek:

My family lived in the wilds - it was Tayto or nothing.

RTE could be quite racy, so wasn't able to watch anything past the anguelus when I was over there.

These's ads must have past me by :D
 
I think you have to admire P&G though.

Each crisp tastes as bad as the last but you can't stop eating them.

What ever chemical they came up with, could be used for powers of good?
