Are Pringles potato chips or crisps?

Asked a year ago
Pringles are not officially classified as potato chips or crisps. Instead, they fall under the category of "potato-based snacks." While the general perception is that Pringles are potato chips, their unique shape and texture set them apart. Unlike traditional potato chips, Pringles are made from dehydrated processed potatoes that are then formed into their distinctive curved shape. Additionally, they undergo a different cooking process compared to regular chips. Pringles are cooked and stacked in specialized ovens, ensuring their uniform shape and texture. Therefore, while Pringles share some characteristics with potato chips, their composition and manufacturing process make them a distinct category of potato-based snacks.
