Title: Mint Choc PRINGLES
Post by: smurfboy on October 17, 2013, 06:40:25 pm
No, this isn't a joke. Don't check your calendar - it's not April 1st. I'm guessing someone scheduled a product development meeting at P&G for the day after the office party and they were all still pissed - that's the only way I can explain Mint Choc flavour Pringles being a real thing  :o

I'm assuming it's some kind of bizarre attempt at a Christmas-themed product; a theory supported by the fact that the other new flavour is Sweet Cinnamon (sorry Goldencup!) That one could actually work in a strange way (the kind of sweet and savoury combination that works for chocolate-covered pretzels), but I'm not sure I can bring myself to try Mint Choc - although I am slightly intrigued in a car crash kind of way...

I had not heard of these before this post, but I will just have to try them..

Scarily have just discovered they're also doing a white chocolate and peppermint, but I don't think we get that one in the UK.

Oooh I like the sound of both of these - will look out for them.  And Smurfy, cinnamon and I have recently had a bit of a re-think, maybe it's not the devil's food after all!

Oh, I love cinnamon - but I am not sure I'm ready for cinnamon crisps, unless they leave off the salt! The mint choc ones sound a bit like those Cadbury Crispies which are made in orange and mint flavour, look like Pringles, are sold in a Pringles-type carton but are actually chocolate crispies.

I saw them in Sainsbury's if you're still hunting :)
