Pringles: "Once you pop, the fun just don't stop."

When asked about your childhood, would one of the following items be in your list?

  • Santa Clause/Tooth Fairy/Easter Bunny 
  • Nap time
  • Snack time/recess 
  • Playing sports
  • Play dates
  • Disney Movies 
If so, your childhood was less than mediocre. Often, individuals skip over the most important aspects of their childhoods- the snacks. My childhood consisted of: Cheetos, ice-cream sandwiches, popcorn, candy bars, and most importantly, Pringles. 


All over the world, people unite over language, religion, and ethnicity to celebrate the joy of a single potato chip called the Pringle. In the busy hustle of adult life, many grown-ups are forgetting to stop and enjoy the tiny aspects of life. Why were we sent to live life if all we did was work and stress about work? The celebratory Pringle allows us to stop stressing about nonsensical things and kick back our legs. The salty crunch of the potato chip brings us back to reminiscence about our childhood experiences, like when we used to stick two chips in our mouths and pretend to be ducks.

Although as stated earlier, Pringles are a potato chip, these delicious chips are actually made from a mixture of corn and potato. Their ingenious design allows for each chip to be stacked upon each other and tightly packed in a can- truly the snack food of the future. Creative snack food scientists have created a magnificent spectrum of flavors, ranging from the common Sour Onion to Blueberry Hazelnut!

I have made it one of my life long goals to try at least 50 new flavors before I die. This also gives me an incentive to travel around the world,where they have unique flavors in different countries. You should try to challenge yourself, too!

Here is a list of different Pringle flavors in other countries; which one is the weirdest? 

  • Blueberry Hazelnut: Thailand
  • Soft-shell Crab: Singapore
  • Keema Curry: Japan
  • Steak and Onion Pie: U.K.
  • Hong Kong Fish Ball: China
  • Paprika: Portugual 
  • Onion Crouton Soup: Japan
  • Ketchup: Unknown; possibly USA?
  • White Chocolate Peppermint: Unknown 
  • Tortilla Nacho Cheese: Mexico
