Pringles- Original

This isn't a query, just a major disappointment for me I haven't eaten any Pringles for at least 6 years. Today for some reason I saw them in the supermarket and decided to buy them. I arrived home, opened the Pringles tube, ate three, alas they weren't as wonderful as I had thought they would be. Too salty and too stodgy for me. Over the years both my diet and palate have changed, still not a bad thing, but, nevertheless it came as a bit of a surprise.

The recipe will have changed
 
Did the tube have a metal base? I heard that they were changing the packaging to make the tubes recyclable, in particular the base. If it's been changed I wonder if it's had an effect on what's inside.
 
@Sharron1 Life is full of little surprises, even in a tub of pringles it would seem 😉
At least I can rely on C. Dairy Milk, as I look towards my Easter Eggs. Not long now
 
Pringles are delicious, always have been still are.

Perhaps your tastebuds have changed @Sharron1 or you've conditioned yourself to not like certain foods anymore.
 
I also brought some for xmas just as a treat and we found the same thing ended up throwing them away 😡
 
Forgot to say i know have a pkt of Quavers there quite nice just for a change :D
 
You couldn't tempt me with the Original variety but Sour Cream and Onion.... Yum! Not had any since diagnosis 6 years ago but doubt my tastes have changed enough not to scoff a whole tube in one sitting given half a chance. I buy nuts now and make sure to walk straight past the crisp section in the supermarket. If I am really in need of something then a packet of pork scratchings does the trick.
