Wow! I did not know that Pringles were not wholly made of potato. It seems that they have 42% potato which allows them to legally be called potato chips - is that not unlike 51% of parts to be called a Swiss watch?
Anyhow,
This is a detailed list of Pringles’ ingredients:
- 42% potato content
- Wheat starch
- Corn, rice, or potato flour
- Emulsifier
- Vegetable oil
- Salt and seasonings
Some Pringles may have additional ingredients for more flavor. Ingredients like:
- Dextrose or maltodextrin as sweeteners
- Monosodium glutamate or MSG
- Disodium inosinate
- Sodium caseinate
- Disodium guanylate
- Modified food starch
- Diglyceride and monoglyceride
- Malted barley, wheat, or bran flour
- Artificial and natural flavorings
- Autolyzed yeast extract
- Cheddar cheese, sour cream, etc.
New advertising slogan: Pringles - prepared and made by some of the world's finest Noble Prize winning chemists.
Well, I did not know that until today.
Will it stop me munching on them...nope, I don't think so.
