If you email this photo to them, they’ll give you a free box! ;)

If you're in the UK, go to Aldi and buy some Stackers instead. They're actually really good.
FernandoRumdebum
Costs have risen, people won't accept smaller packaging or higher prices
Meilkor
Get ready for the bottom 20 chips to be confetti-sized crumb pieces.
IamJustinSane
It’s some fat guy in the factory taking a handful from each container before the safety seal goes on.
Stuebydoo
I used to be able to fit my whole forearm down a tube of them. Now I have to slide them out of the can into my mouth
Imightbetrolling
Maximizing profits mofo! -Pringles
FierceAndAdorable
They used to be to the top so they held in place without breaking during shipping, now they break
ArtOzz
Sometimes they do go to the top. Sometimes they dont. Youd think itd be even mostly.
Imnotarainbow
Sometimes she goes. And sometimes she doesn’t. It’s just the way she goes, boys!
BertsPark
Plus they don't taste as good as they used to.
SpiceWeasel0x83
Once you pop you end up with runny shits. No thanks.
poets
This has been termed 'shrinkflation'. The prices stay the same but you get less for your money.
NotADutchman
Capitalism at its finest. Profits are down (please take note: still a profit), how do we "solve" this? Answer: less product, same price.
cerpintaxt475
But it says how much is in it on the outside of the can...
Everycatz
I have never seen the problem with this. You buy them by the weight, so you already know exactly how much is in there.
righttitmcgee
Also, splurge a little on the flavoring, Pringles! I recall being a kid eating the sour cream & onions and their being more flavor then now!
AMPLIFIEDFootsteps5IntenseMusic
You lost tastebuds as you aged...
v spices help
SgtDillweed
not really, i bought the "classic paprica" pack, and it tasted like depression
YurgenGrimwood
Now i want some pringles...
nevergoingtogiveyouupnevergoingtoletyoudown
I havent had pringles in forever cause they taste like dehydrated potato flakes for me to know this.
extraordinaryagility
And the "Original" flavor is such high sodium content, it burns my damn tastebuds. I started buying the low-sodium version instead.
nevergoingtogiveyouupnevergoingtoletyoudown
Seems to be a trend with chips now. Like if people want salt buy the damn salt&vinegar
extraordinaryagility
I like that you agree with my statement, but I can't help noticing your username and I'm chuckling boisterously... a hearty guffaw, indeed.
nevergoingtogiveyouupnevergoingtoletyoudown
That's what it's for ;D
Saifury
U forgot how you cant put your hands in them now too cause they decreased the circumference
NightMan3
If EA owned Pringles: that’ll be .99c for the Pringles expansion pack
philipesan123
You pay for the weight, not for the amount of Chips
eazolan
Not anymore. I don't buy them.
Poprocket77
Am I the only one disappointed by the taste of Pringles?
Zixtank
You didn't buy the dlc.
EdibleStupidity
Once you pop, the fun soon stops
alfmeister6227
They're doing it for the dieters by making them harder to reach right from the get go.
FiftyShadesOfCauliflower
I've been wondering for almost 2 minutes what people called Dieter have to do with this.
alfmeister6227
Nice reply. Didn't think of the German connotations of dieter.
Unquote
so just me then that turns the can over and makes a tower of Pringles on top of the cap?
alfmeister6227
Not any more.
leejordan
I can't fit my hand inside a Pringle can
n0n53n53
me either. I can only get the top 1/3.
12Centuries
The trick is to not glue the can to the table so you can tip it.
Ivain
The amount of space is a bad measurement. Take a look at the weight it says on the packaging, and keep track of it. Bags used to be 350g
Ivain
Now they're 300, or in some cases even 275g. Party bags of chips used to be 60g, now they're 30g
imtheimgur
Try these instead
ImKimJongUnAndEverythingIsFine
ISeeWhatIDidThere
I like that they are the "original" Prongles.
futureman3000
Once you poop, you can't stoop!
boomchacle
ah yes, the classic salt and potato flavor...
ihadtochangemyusernametoseemnormal
I remember when I was cornered by a Deathclaw at level 3, with only a can of Prongles with which to defend myself with.
gernjer
That’s grammatical genius.
veryoffensiveusername
Yeah, but be sure it's the original Prongles, not a cheap imitation.
ErikVikingGodOfRock
They make some crazy ones for foreign markets. Fish head and mushroom. Wasabi.
dangernoodlezone
If wasabi is wrong, I don't want to be right.
ThyCountess
I remember there being a hidden logo under the first one
SPACEBALLSTheImgurUser

You know it's quality when potato goes from being an ingredient to a description of the flavor.
ImguriansFillMySaltReservoir
They just taste rong.

salt AND potato?!

*gasp* they come in salt & potato flavor!? That's my favorite!
momoneymopain
They never have any to sell
MrMemethief
Man, I just love my potato-flavored salt chips
glamsquanch
It’s like Malk. Now with vitamin R

Once you pap you can't crap!

Once you pop...THATS GREAT!

What a fuckin slogan, I love it

Stealing from pringles and tony the tiger. And bebop from TMNT as well apparently. (or rocksteady I can't remember)
Bootsy81
With a dash of bart simpson skateboarding for good measure.
ShouldersDeepInAHorse
Open up the can and FELL GREAT TASTE
Bacxaber

SirReginaldDukeOfChutney
Salt and potato... Jesus Christ guys.

ShouldersDeepInAHorse
By the logic of how ingredients are listed, that would imply the product consist mainly of salt, with less potato.

Yayyyy!

They only taste like potato, there's no potato in them
CyborgScribe
That was my concern
WildAndGreen
coz they're made out of corn flour...
RingSting
O just buy the Lidl version, my knackered tastebuds can't even tell the difference - my wallet does though.
Bamboobob
Nooo those are nasty.
TheDudeOrHisDudeness
any other version of these chips i have tasted, tasted like shit compared to pringles
nicepersonbadbreath
I would even go as far as to say that the Lidl version is better
ninty9notout
The Walkers Stax are decent too
ChristopherKostyshyn
Can confirm (although, Lay's in Canada).
samvimesbootstheory
I went to a Lidl for the first time today. I do not understand their store layout.
ElPoloDiablo
Lidl's the best. The only place that I could find so far that sells big bottles of peach ice tea, and at a reasonable price too.
UNDE4DBEAST187
Dafuq is Lidl
UrsulatheArtist
ahhh, the Americans have posted
RingSting
Bit like Aldi
Anhor
German supermarket chain that's spreading outside of GE atm. It's a competitor of Aldi. Very similar.
HowComeDespiteTheFact
It's been everywhere in Europe for at least 10 years
usersubbordercontrol
Lidl is so good! Where you from?
RingSting
UK mate, weekly shop went from £100+ ...to £70 tops. I don't work for them btw. =D
usersubbordercontrol
We just got a lidl here on East coast USA, pretty good place
Pathologe
It's soooo weird reading this as a German like I get that other countries have their own chains but seeing "your" chain in an other country
usersubbordercontrol
McDonald's is everywhere. Most chains spread worldwide, and I wish more would
slowpokeonaslowday
We do all of our shopping at Aldi (basically the same thing). Overflowing buggy of groceries for ~$150. It's like magic
ICantBelieveItsNotGif
What is Lidl?
[deleted]
[deleted]
FiftyShadesOfCauliflower
Both Aldi and Lidl are German chains that have branched out to the UK.
drezrale
And Aldi is Albrecht Discounts, Lidl is Schwarz Unternehmenstreuhand. Two different companies.
Snow23
We have it in Germany too! Best ever!
Fubball
UK budget supermarket
TheForgewright
For Americans: Aldi. Lidl is coming to a few locations soon, too.
BitterSwedeLP
Lidl is German
ICantBelieveItsNotGif
Right on, thanks for the info. I will go back to my sub-par brand name Pringles now :(
TheJzoli
Aren't they German though?
drezrale
Well it used to be called Schwarz Unternehmenstreuhand KG, so I dont know... The company might be French.
maholt
Also, put the corrugated cardboard back in. Candle making has been set back centuries since it was removed.
kobriengw
And why is that?
intashu
After pouring wax inside, the Pringle can can be torn away in a spiral for easy removal.
kobriengw
Ahh okay, thanks!
tipitiwitchet
I thought that was an Ayn Rand reference and now you got me thinking about 10th-grade English again
ErikVikingGodOfRock
They contract out the container making to a company down the road. Blame them.
fnhngest
please explain
intashu
Pour wax In, tear cardboard off when cooled. (it tore off in a downward spiral.)
extraordinaryagility
That sounds so awesome. That's actually sad that they've changed it. What does it do now, what's the tin made of if not corrugated?
fnhngest
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=LFl5VuTDmSM it all makes sense now
greenshamrox
Pringles jar, bring those jar, penis jar... The subtitles on this video are better than the video itself.
Bootsy81
She just cuts down then tears around the base though. I feel that would be possible without the spiral cardboard, no?
marcushippocampus
They claim it's due to "settling", when in reality it's because they're "cheap bastards".
Magpiebones
Well they have always been about 50% wheat flour too, so.
StellarJay77
Lays say the exact same thing yet you look at the weight in grams of actual product and that has decreased while the bag size has not.
FeedTheRats
Ah the ol’ “cheap bastard” trick. Gets me every time.
Kodaxmax
like most companies, not satisfied with huge profits they need all the money.
Ultrafire3
Has the weight per can dropped?
MFuzzySmock
Cheap bastard doesn’t need to be in quotes. You can say it. I’ll back you up.
jimmythehat1
Man, Pringles used to be a really laid back company.
RedIronCrown
Has the mass of product in a can changed?
blergh2point0
Chip bastards*
Wdahl
Settling? These Pringles has been settling so much they risk dying of dysentery!
onetimeifoughtabear
Mafuckas tryna get us to "settle"
TheMershedPerderder
They are a stack. How much does it need to settle?
LurkerOfDarkness
It doesn't, settling only applies to crisps in bags, or similar products.
Isaypoopythingsbecausemostofyouannoyme
We want to give customers a sense of accomplishment when they eat an entire pouch in one sitting
StellarJay77
n0n53n53
Yes, this settled too
trust me
CustardPies
I boycott that piece of shit toblerone now out of principle
julgran
Preach! Me too. Oh, and cause I'm fucking addicted to sugar and can't eat any. My life sucks.
JinJinkies
I didn't know people bought these still in the first place.
iamthisguy247
I feel like this Pringles can will lead to a lot of broken chips due the space, while the space in the bags was to prevent broken chips.
Salzab
Thats BS, there didnt used to be all that much air in bags and they were fine.
Salzab
It conveniently makes it look like youre getting a lot more for your money when there is more packaging than product and its not only crisps
GlazedHamRiot
The space in bags is actually a pocket of nitrogen to keep the chips fresher
sheepking1
Still, i hate opening a bag of chips, takis especially, and only getting 1-2/3 chips.
RandomAbscessMemories
Yeah. The air was to prevent crushing, but air won't help a tube. Just let the chips build momentum to crush themselves.
HolyShitpicklesItsTuesday
it's not air, is nitrogen and it's used to conserve more than cushion. Oxygen would make it rot faster and the humidity would sog them
Ivain
Pringles managed without removal of air for ages before this shit.
Nuttsy
It's both: Nitrogen so it doesn't get stale, volume so they don't get compresssed and grind too hard: Conversation is over the latter.
sharK11
Nitrogen is air budday
HolyShitpicklesItsTuesday
if nitrogen was air things would be really funky
RandomAbscessMemories
I didn't know this. It's a good point!
Jusmar
Isn't air mostly nitrogen?
HolyShitpicklesItsTuesday
yes, 78% and 21% oxygen.
