I love Pringles potato chips (who doesn't???), so I was very interested in the new Pringles Select chips that I found recently at the local Wal-Mart. They come in several different flavors - Sun Dried Tomato, Cinnamon Sweet Potato, Szechuan Barbecue, and Parmesan Garlic. I bought a bag of the Parmesan Garlic variety, as they looked the most promising. Wow, was I wrong. Pringles touts them as being "gourmet" and just from the name, I expected an improved, more refined chip. Instead, the Pringle Select chips are smaller, thicker, and heavier tasting that the traditional Pringles I'm used to. I can describe the flavor only as being altogether ordinary and boring. There's nothing gourmet about them, in my opinion. I'll stick with the regular Pringles.
Phoood rating:
I tried the Parmesan and Sun Dried Tomato flavors, and didn't care for them, but then I tried the Szechwan Barbecue flavor. Those are SO much better than the others, and now they rank right up there with Nacho Cheese Doritos as one of my favorites! No kidding!
I don't know, I really liked the texture of the 'Gourmet' chips.

Actually the Garlic flavor really is quite light in this chip, but the Parmesan can be tasted very strong. I'm betting you don't like Parmesan cheese in general, because if you did you would probably like these chips. Parmesan & Garlic are pretty much signatures of Italy, and if you like Italian foods and/or spices you should like this chip also.

Posted by: Dreika at December 29, 2008 9:59 AMI guess to each his own.
However... these are by far the best tasting chips to me EEEVVVEEERRR!!!
I cannot get enough of these.
I get these at my local target store and I should have known not to temp myself on my diet.
I was doing so well until I brought these home and opened them saying I would just eat 1 serving.......
Yeah right.
I ate the whole bag in one night licking the powder from the bottom.
This flavor should not exist because I am completely addicted to it and have no control over myself around them.
These are the CRACK of chips...
TOTALLY AWESOME!!!!
BUY THEM NOW BEFORE THEY DISCONTINUE...
I LOVE THESE EFFIN CHIPS!!!!!!!
