\"Pringles<\/p>\n

Is Pringles having a moment?<\/p>\n

Not only did it just release a new line of Wavy flavors \u2013 \u201cFlavys\u201d as the kids call them \u2013 but earlier this month a Texas woman was banned from Walmart for drinking wine out of a Pringles can<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Quite frankly, I think she was the more innovative one in this situation.<\/p>\n

Wavy Pringles are, well they\u2019re Pringles with Ridges. The Ruffle to your regular Lay\u2019s chip. I don\u2019t know if this development is moving the snack needle for you in the era of endless Oreo cookies, Sour Patch Kids cereal, and Lay\u2019s Do Us a Flavor, but maybe the four \u201cnew\u201d Pringles Wavy varieties will strike a chord.<\/p>\n

Since there are four flavors, I\u2019ll review them on an \u201cInability to stop once popping\u201d scale. I\u2019ll hit you with the worst to first. Meh to yeah! Least to BEAST! Boo to, get on with the damn review already dude!<\/p>\n

Classic Salted <\/h3>\n<\/p>\n

\"Pringles<\/p>\n

Have you ever had Original Pringles? Well, if you wanna try those with waves, now\u2019s your chance. I think the ridges make these slightly worse than Original Pringles, as it makes them taste a bit stale \u2013 more stale really, Pringles always have a \u201cthese might be old\u201d kinda texture. Still, these are fine. I guess.<\/p>\n

Applewood Smoked Cheddar<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n

\"Pringles<\/p>\n

These tasted almost exactly like those bags of TGI Fridays Potato Skins. The cheese flavor was identical to me, to the point I was tricking myself that there was an \u201cApplewood Bacon\u201d flavor too, despite there being no signs on that. These were the saltiest of the four, but still pretty poppable.<\/p>\n

Fire Roasted Jalapeno<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n

\"Pringles<\/p>\n

After one chip I was ready to crown them the Wavy Kings. Before the heat kicked in, there is actually somehow a refreshing burst, like literally biting into a pepper you just ran under the tap.<\/p>\n

The heat is a bit overwhelming, so once I popped it was pretty easy to stop. These are sinus clearers for sure. Not only that, transitioning from a super salty flavor to a hot flavor wreaked havoc on my tongue. All that said, these are very true to jalapenos.<\/p>\n

And the winner for \u201cMost Poppable Pringles Wavy Flavor\u201d is:<\/p>\n

Sweet and Tangy BBQ<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n

\"Pringles<\/p>\n

I won\u2019t lie, I pretty much knew these would win because I\u2019ve loved BBQ Pringles since I was a kid. These are a well-done spin on the regular BBQ, almost smelling and tasting like they lean more towards that \u201cCarolina\u201d vinegary BBQ sauce.<\/p>\n

They have a perfect level of kick to them, with a sweetness that masks the heat nicely. The tang sets them apart from what you are used to. These hit on all the best elements of the previous three flavors without the negatives.<\/p>\n

So, in the end, do you know what Pringles Wavy chips taste like? <\/p>\n

Pringles.<\/p>\n

These are kinda non-starters, but tasty. I\u2019d say the BBQ and Jalapeno chips were the flavors that improved on the similar Pringles I\u2019d had before.<\/p>\n

\"Pringles<\/p>\n

To answer the question posed in the opening sentence, I don\u2019t think Pringles are having a moment at all. They can use an exciting brand extension. Bad enough they\u2019re usually buried by the Chex Mix in the supermarket. They need to get their name back out there in a better way than just adding ridges. Each of these flavors would have been as good if not better without the waves.<\/p>\n

Maybe they\u2019ll start selling Pringles Wine Glasses on Etsy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
