He doesn&#8217;t need another.<\/p>\n<p>And when the winner or winners go up to get their award, they should be allowed to give a speech thanking all those who made it possible. And if it seems to go on for too long, like the ingredients list of many processed foods, a chorus of burps should go off in the tune of Weird Al&#8217;s &#8220;Eat It&#8221; to play them off.<\/p>\n<p>Those food scientists deserve it because they\u2019ve been doing an excellent job, and that includes Chicken &#038; Waffles Pringles, a Dollar General exclusive flavor. It&#8217;s better than what the Frito-Lay scientists did with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/2013\/02\/12\/review-lays-do-us-a-flavor-finalist-chicken-waffles-potato-chips\/\">Lay&#8217;s Chicken &#038; Waffles Potato Chips<\/a>, which I liked, but in small doses, because it was an unusual amalgamation of sweet and savory that my taste buds could only take so much of. <\/p>\n<p>Although to be fair, the Lay&#8217;s chips came out several years ago, and food technology has improved. So the Pringlentists have had years of advancements to perfect their version.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Chicken-Waffles-Pringles-Closeup.jpeg?resize=600%2C450&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Chicken  Waffles Pringles Closeup\" title=\"Chicken &#038; Waffles Pringles Closeup.jpeg\" border=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Chicken &#038; Waffles Pringles has a sweet aroma that reminds me of another Pringles flavor, but I&#8217;m not 100% sure which one. It might be Pecan Pie or Salted Caramel. <\/p>\n<p>But while all the crisps smell the same, their flavors vary. Some start with a sweet buttermilk waffle taste. While other times, it begins with savory bursts that remind me of the chicken flavor that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/2020\/02\/03\/rotisserie-chicken-pringles-review\/\">other<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/2017\/07\/26\/review-nissin-top-ramen-chicken-pringles\/\">Pringles<\/a> varieties have, but with an underlying artificial maple-like flavor. Sometimes the onion powder included stands out, and there are moments when the crisp gets unusually salty. But most of the time, I do think of the sweet and savory dish when I eat these. And I also think I might eat the whole can right now.<\/p>\n<p>While I enjoy these crisps, I can see how some folks in the &#8220;sweet Pringles are weird&#8221; camp might not like them as much as I do. Also, it might be my imagination, but these seem to be thicker than any other Pringles I&#8217;ve had.<\/p>\n<p>Chicken &#038; Waffles Pringles will never win an award, like Best Crunchy Potato Snack, or help its makers win a Nicholas Appert Award. But in a battle between it and Lay&#8217;s Chicken &#038; Waffles Potato Chips, it\u2019s the decisive winner.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Purchased Price:<\/strong> More than one should pay on eBay<br \/>\n<strong>Size:<\/strong> 5.5 oz.<br \/>\n<strong>Purchased at:<\/strong> eBay (Sold at Dollar General)<br \/>\n<strong>Rating:<\/strong> 7 out of 10<br \/>\n<strong>Nutrition Facts:<\/strong> (about 15 crisps\/1 oz.) 150 calories,  9 grams of fat, 2.5 grams of saturated fat, 0 grams of trans fat, 0 milligrams of cholesterol, 200 milligrams of sodium, 16 grams of carbohydrates, less than 1 gram of fiber, less than 1 gram of sugar, and 1 gram of protein.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I don&#8217;t know who&#8217;s been developing Pringles&#8217; recent flavors, but they deserve an award that&#8217;s the equivalent of the Nobel Peace Prize or a Pulitzer.
