Gourmet processed potato

Gourmands! Sigh and fret in impatience no more! Pringles have unleashed their Pringles Gourmet range, and it’s coming your way!



I tried them in Norway. If you already don’t like Pringles, these “special” ones won’t change your mind. If you do, you’ll find yourself thinking, “Oh. Here are some new kinds of Pringles, apart from the salt and pepper ones, which are pretty much like the existing salt and pepper ones”. In fact the only thing in this product’s favour is that it can’t possibly disappoint, unless you’re the kind of person easily led astray by the inclusion on packaging of words like “quality”, “value” or, as here, “exquisite”.

That's a very mouthwatering picture of steak and onions there. It only throws into sharp relief the inevitable disappointment of the powdery reconstituted potato crisp.

I saw a programme a few years ago about grossly obese people. One woman, who couldn't quite work out why she was four times the weight she should be, said "when you open a tube of Pringles, you have to eat them all".

Do they do exquisite whalemeat flavour for the Norwegian market?

No, despite my extensive lobbying.

Screw Pringles, when are we going to get posh Stackers?
