Xtra. Did we as a culture, at some point, decide that the letter E was below our notice and that words need to start with X? The package is emblazoned with a great big X, just in case you missed the fact that they are "Xtra-ordinary" or "Xtra tangy". The fact of the matter is that they are chips, and therefore unlikely to run off and fight Magneto, regardless of how many X's they put on the package. For whatever reason the people at Pringles really love their Buffalo wings, because they actually have quite a few variations such as Buffalo Ranch, Xtreme (ugh) Blazin' Buffalo Wing, and Frank's Red Hot Buffalo Wing in addition to the aforementioned Xtra Tangy. I can only imagine that the people at Pringles host all their meetings at Hooters. Even though they are playing havoc with my spell check, they are remarkably good. They have a strong cayenne pepper kick, that won't leave you screaming, but that you aren't going to forget either. There's also a distinct vinegar flavor that takes the edge off the heat but isn't too sour and finally a slight undercurrent of garlic that rounds it out. Pringles chips (or crisps, as it says on the container) are always uniform in their shape and size. The same cannot always be said for their flavoring distribution, sometimes the powders are spotty or even quite sparse. Thankfully the Buffalo Wing flavoring on these is almost perfectly spread out, so every bite tastes good. If I didn't have dozens more types of chips to try out i might have bought these again, even if I think the name is dumb.
Found at Walmart
