\"Limited<\/a><\/p>\n

It\u2019s the most wonderful time of the year!<\/p>\n

It\u2019s time for a man with furry facial hair who\u2019s wearing red to deliver something that will make your holidays brighter. I\u2019m not talking about Santa. Nor am I talking about the Target pharmacy cashier who started growing his \u201cplayoff beard\u201d early and is handing you the cold medication that makes you loopy.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m talking about the red bowtie-wearing Pringles guy, Julius Pringles. Or as I like to call him, J.P. Yup, we as tight as a Pringles can around my hand as I try to grab the crisps at the bottom.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s that time of year when J.P. brings out the sweet Pringles flavors. There\u2019s been Pumpkin Pie Spice, White Chocolate Peppermint, Milk Chocolate, White Chocolate, Cinnamon & Sugar, and Pecan Pie. I\u2019ve tried a number of them and my thoughts range from yum to \u201cmy holidays are slightly less brighter now.\u201d<\/p>\n

J.P.\u2019s latest is Salted Caramel Pringles. It\u2019s a flavor that was bound to happen since salted caramel, sea salt caramel, salt caramel, sea salted caramel, and all their ilk have made their way onto every snack known to human*. <\/p>\n

*probably not accurate<\/p>\n

\"Limited<\/a><\/p>\n

After pulling back the lid, I smelled a odd, sweet aroma. It was also familiar. The sea salt caramel seasoning is either transparent or potato crisp colored because these potato crisps look like plain old Pringles.<\/p>\n

Remember when I said they smelled familiar? Well, there\u2019s a reason for that. These Salted Caramel Pringles taste somewhat similar to Pecan Pie Pringles. <\/p>\n

They taste similar because they have the same butteriness, which is the dominant flavor in both. The two flavors have a pancakes and maple syrup vibe to them, although less so with the Salted Caramel Pringles, which also have a light burst of salt. I guess sweet butteriness with some salt equates to salted caramel. These crisps also did leave my fingers smelling like eau de pancakes et syrup.<\/p>\n

Yes, I\u2019m smelling my fingers right now.<\/p>\n

I liked the Pecan Pie Pringles, and since they taste like them, I also enjoyed Salted Caramel Pringles. But I\u2019m disappointed they taste so similar. It\u2019s as if J.P. regifted Pecan Pie Pringles.<\/p>\n
