Comment on Does Coke Zero taste different in the UK vs. the USA?

Semi-related - we had salt and vinegar pringles in Europe and they were good, but then when we got back to the US they were just much more intense and flavorful. We did not compare ingredients.

We love salt and vinegar in the UK. I think statistically it’s the second most popular flavour of crisps here, after cheese and onion.
Sorry to hear the US somehow ruined it, although I’ve had pickle flavour crisps from the USA and enjoyed them, so I think there is hope.

US has some good salt and vinegar chips, you just gotta get the right brand.
At risk of wading into a larger conflict about naming conventions got fried potato snacks, Pringles aren’t really considered “chips” over here, but “potato crisps” due to their district texture and flavor.
If you get a good brand of salt and vinegar (preferably kettle cooked imo) chips here, they can be very strong.
Though I have had some issues with consistency in the past where one bag will just have hardly any flavoring, but I guess that’s bound to happen one or two times when you eat literal tons of potato chips.
Personally, I’m a fan of jalapeno kettle cooked chips.

I assumed it was just more chemicals and additives in the US
