  If I read this article right, and I think their picture shows their Pringles stacked same-side up as mine, mine have the flavouring on the other side.

  Which side is up in the can was never a question for me, they simply fit my mouth, and presumably mouths in general, better if the long concave side cups the tongue. It could be that they’re simply seasoned on the wrong side over here it’s not like they import them from the US, they’re produced in Poland.

  In any case the store brand has seasoning placement down, but as this is Germany you’re limited to paprika and sour cream and onion. Which I will be sticking with in the future.

    The shape of the Pringle has two obvious purposes:

    1. Fit easily to the mouth and engulf the taste buds with intense and pleasurable flavor.
    2. Model the curvature of spacetime as proposed by 11-dimensional string theory.

    I like to lick the flavor side and then flip it so it fits in the mouth. While less convenient than just having the flavor on the right side, the extra step makes it more involved which has its own kind of enjoyment.
