When I look at these new Pringles Smoky flavors, I can\u2019t help but think the Pringleneers (Pringles engineers) are running out of steam. Or should I say smoke? Available in three varieties \u2014 Smoky Mesquite BBQ, Smoky Bacon, and Smoky Cheddar \u2014 they appear to be previous flavors with additional smokiness or flavors that Pringles has offered before. For this review, I found only the barbecue and bacon flavors. I\u2019ll smoke out the cheddar one later.<\/p>\n
I don\u2019t know about you, but I can tell when I love a Pringles flavor when I end up eating more than half the can without realizing it, at a pace that makes it seem like my hand is a car\u2019s piston and the Pringles can is an engine\u2019s cylinder. However, my gluttony and repetitive arm motions remained in check with both Pringles Smoky varieties I tried.<\/p>\n Barbecue didn\u2019t come to mind when I tried the Smoky Mesquite BBQ Pringles. Its aroma somewhat reminded me of ketchup or All-Dressed chips, and its flavor evoked Asian flavors similar to those found in Lay\u2019s chips I\u2019ve had from China. There\u2019s a bit of lime flavor that\u2019s really noticeable among the onion and garlic powders. But all of that flavor doesn\u2019t draw my taste buds or my hands to the Pringles can.<\/p>\n The Smoky Bacon seems to taste slightly different than the previous bacon-flavored Pringles. I suppose that difference could be considered a \u201csmokiness,\u201d but I feel as though it has a meatier flavor than what I remember the original Bacon Pringles had. However, despite their bolder flavor, I couldn\u2019t say I thoroughly enjoyed the potato crisps. While I feel they taste fine, that greasy flavor that comes with bacon-flavored products is something I can only enjoy in doses.<\/p>\n Because I\u2019m snacking on these slower than a sloth on a sidewalk, I decided to stack the two flavors, and what I tasted was something that made me think of SPAM for some reason. And now that I have that in my head, I\u2019d really like to taste a Hormel SPAM and Pringles collaboration. That would be more exciting than these Smoky flavors.<\/p>\n Purchased Price:<\/strong> $2.59 each When I look at these new Pringles Smoky flavors, I can\u2019t help but think the Pringleneers (Pringles engineers) are running out of steam.
