He may be a fraudulent nutter but there is no denying this:

The process begins with a slurry of rice, wheat, corn, and potato flakes that are pressed into shape.

You really want to eat that?

Pringles are oily and just nasty but that not to say I've never comsumed a packet or three, I just try avoiding them.

Countzero, the "Real" crisps I've tried are just rubbish (not tried that flavour), the Mackies (of scotchland) are much better and these seemed pretty damned good

Sadly, I always think of [url= http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Schenker_Group ]these guys[/url] when I hear/read MSG.
Luckily, Pringles for lunch.

I once thought that pringling a wheel had something to do with punctures, due to the 'once you pop, you can't stop' slogan, but then ... no, I just made that up.

I don't like crisps.
The miserable, cold, bastard offspring of a chip and a month old scab.

Especially the poncey, artisan ones that taste of other peoples feet.

Well I'll happily eat rice, wheat, corn and potato in other forms. Is it the use of the word slurry that offends you?

I don't any of it before it's a slurry but that's not the point.

However, the reason they make it into a slurry is so they can add the chemicals more easily that create the flavour and texture of the product and then shape so they fit in those ridiculous tubes.

It's another over processed, high carb, chemical ridden, over priced "food".

It's this type of absolutism that is tearing our crisp community apart! How can we stand up to the haterz like Rusty Spanner, if we are constantly fighting amongst ourselves?!?!

so they fit in those ridiculous tubes.

Man's got a point. Tubes are pretty ridiculous. Give me a box any day.

I once emailed Seabrookes to tell them their S&V crisps were now crap, and just tasted greasy.

They never replied ๐Ÿ™

Are you suggesting tubeless is the future?

Used to work for Procter & Gamble, who make Pringles and sell them in their Staff shop for about 50p a can. We used to have competitions to see how many we could fit in our mouths at once. For a few years after I finished working there I stopped eating them for the same reason I can't drink cider. ๐Ÿ˜
