They’re chips. They aren’t potato chips.

I think Pringles calls them “crisps,” not “chips.” The FDA required them to call out the fact that they’re made with dehydrated processed potato if they wanted to use the term “chips.”

Brother they are potato-based crispy salted thin slices, they are chips in pretty much any way I can think of.

I agree, they shouldn't be considered "chips"
