So instead of my usual tube of store-brand I grabbed a tube of Pringles because they had fancy limited edition flavours.
They put the flavour on the wrong side of the crisps. If you put them, as is proper, into your mouth so that they actually fit, right-out embracing your tongue, the spice is on the top side. I don’t have taste buds in the roof of my mouth. How can this kind of blatant incompetence exist in the world?
Also I would have expected more heat from something called “Thai Green Curry” but that’s a whole another topic.
My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined.
Chipsfrish Peperoni definitely have more heat, they’re saying they’re using 10000 Scoville powder (though not how much of it). Generally speaking if you order something hot in Germany you’re getting Turkish hot, which is about “able to eat pure Sriracha without breathing fire” kind of tolerance level.
But, granted, Pringles is American, I should have guessed.
Chipsfrisch is the brand you can’t compare any crisps to, it is unmatched in its heavenly taste.
