Probably as a result of my attendance at BlogHer last summer, a conference sponsored in part by Proctor and Gamble, I've gotten several pitches from Pringles, a recent of which read as follows:

Then, at the beginning of October (I know, shoot me, I'm almost done with my NaBloPoMo clean out of my drafts folder), the New York Times Magazine published a handy info graphic of all the very many flavors of Pringles available world wide.
Who knew?
I had half a mind to write back and ask for samples of Tandoori Chicken, Jamon, Thai Sweet Chili and Butter Soy Pringles, but I restrained myself.
What would you want?

Sorry. I think Pringles are beyond disgusting.
oh that's awesome. clealry i would have to try a sample of wild spice - who knows what that couldbe?
I've had Pringles a few times and thought they were too salty but okay. At World Trivia Night I tried one and they tasted like ass. Really really salty ass. Jamon - is that...ham? *visceral shudder*
I love Pringles. But my best buy is Lays.
Like the other commenters, I shun Pringles; however, Hazelnut might be good with ice cream. Indonesian Satay and the Thai one sound intriguing.
Unfortunately for my waistline, I do eat quite a lot of potato chips - gotta have that salt! - and my current favorite is a local brand of Russet chip.
I haven't had Pringles in years -- I prefer sweets to salty things. But given the opportunity, I'd be intrigued to try the Lemon and Sesame, the Thai Sweet Chili, and maybe the Indonesian Satay.
I have always loved Pringles more than I can express. I know they're basically pre-shewed and re-formed but that's OK with me! While I was in China last winter I grabbed up a bunch of surprising Pringles and similar chip style flavors so I'd love to taste whatever Pringles has to offer. I was sad that, by the time I got to them at Blogher, they were out of the honey mustard. I recommend the Screamin' Dill Pickle. Totally weird, totally awesome.
Ketchup, dill pickle and cool cucumber...also wouldn't mind the butter soy!!!
KayTar loves Pringles, the only flavor she eats is Sour Cream and Onion. We always have them in the house since it is one of the few carbs she will eat!
