Pringles XTREME...Not Even Close.

So I had a hankering for some fakeass potato chips, and I picked up a can of “Pringles XTREME SCREAMIN’ DILL PICKLE flavored”. The can had pickle quarters shooting around on the label like rocket ships and warnings like “TEST YOUR TASTE BUDS!” and a sour meter promising pucker power.

Aaannd…it’s nothing. It tastes like they flavored the stuff by stashing open jars of Vlasic under the conveyor belt while the chips passed over. The pickle flavor is nearly undetectable.

I, for one, am outraged. At least the label should read “Pringles inSIPID VAGUELY REMINISCENT OF DILL flavored.” Then it could be all cool and edgy, and still have truth in advertising.

There are plenty of people who are so used to bland food, that even a few drops of pickle juice is too much for them.
