I could’ve sworn Pringles previously had a Carolina Pulled Pork BBQ flavor. Am I imagining it? Have I snorted Pringles crumbs one too many times? (Spotted by Matthew B at Walmart.)

As somebody originally from South Carolina, seeing things described as just “Carolina BBQ” annoys me to no end. These should be North Carolina BBQ, since they are a vinegar/ketchup based bbq flavor. On the other hand, South Carolina BBQ would be a mustard based bbq flavor.*
*I am fully aware this is a ridiculous thing to complain about.
This is *not* a ridiculous thing to complain about. There definitely is that regional difference in sauces. Personally, one of my favorites is Jack Cawthon’s Tennessee Original sauce (of Jack’s BBQ, Nashville, TN). It’s more in the vein of a North Carolina vinegar sauce.
As a fellow SCian, I am in full support of this complaint!
Being annoyed or complaining about the misuse of terms is NOT ridiculous.
The degradation of language skills and the deterioration of a functional vocabulary is a prevalent issue today.
Words have defined meaning.
If we start allowing imprecision in communication, a culture which adopts a hybrid of hillbilly, valley girl, inner-city slang, and various grunts isn’t far behind.
And I, for one, am not yet ready for Flaturin or Brawndo yet.
As a life long NCer, I agree…it’s too vague of a term
But I’d argue that mustard based bbq sauce is not really bbq saucer.
