Whether or not you meant it to be, this is an ad.

  Not making a value judgment, just raising the cry. Ads in and of themselves aren't bad so long as everyone knows what they are.

They cut down on the flavor instead

I was craving pizza flavored pringles but was very dissapointed by the lack of flavor.

What happened? pizza pringles used to be good

  I did get covid but I didn't really get any loss of taste for anything else that i've noticed anyways

well yeah, but they're also not 'proper' potato chips. it's a trade off, i guess

- True they are potato crisps

- Pringles are far superior to regular potato chips though, so it's less of a "trade off" and more of a "win win" situation

PRINGLES ORIGINAL

Dried potatoes, Vegetable oil, Corn flour, Corn starch, Rice flour, Sugars (maltodextrin), Mono- and diglycerides, Salt, Citric acid, Wheat starch.

RUFFLES ORIGINAL

Potatoes, Vegetable Oil (Canola, Corn, Soybean, and/or Sunflower Oil), and Salt.

Old Dutch chip Original

POTATOES, VEGETABLE OIL, SALT.

Would have to compare the actual weights offered by buy weight you will always get more potato in other brands.

- Maltodextrin is a plant derived carb that’s used to thicken foods. It’s not a sugar. Also, Original Pringles, at least the in the US, don’t have citric acid.
  
  Also worth noting, the reason Pringles have emulsifiers and thickeners is because the potatoes are mashed up and poured into a little mould. They need to be thickened and well mixed so they stay together when fried.
  
  There isn’t anything too crazy in there. I’ve used these ingredients at home. They’re easy to get and can come from plants.

  Not saying they are bad, just saying you arn't getting as much potato due the the amount of binders and flours.

- You're right, but people also complain there is so much "air" in the bags that they are basically half filled.

I'm still waiting for the promised new can that isn't impossible to recycle...

- Fair!

That's because it's half empty.

- That exact can had been eaten half full because we ate them.
