Extra-Spicy Chip Collections

Pringles Scorchin' is the Brand's First Dedicated Spicy Lineup

Snackers who can't get enough spicy flavors will be able to dive into three new flavors from the Pringles Scorchin' collection, which puts a spicy twist on classic Pringles flavors like Cheddar, BBQ and Chili & Lime. While the spicy new Pringles Scorchin' Cheddar flavor is said to have an extra peppery kick, the Scorchin' BBQ variety combines flavors that are sweet and smoky with cayenne pepper. Rounding out the new lineup, there's also the Pringles Scorchin' Chili & Lime crisps, which are tangy and balance chili pepper with zesty citrus flavors. With these spicy crisps, Pringles set out to create bold flavors that build over time.

As Gareth Maguire, senior director of marketing for Pringles, describes: "We've launched spicy flavors in the past, but Pringles Scorchin' is our first dedicated collection."
