I had to choose between Pringles and Bugles today and i decided on Bugles. I can’t say that i regretted my decision but i can’t help wonder if i made the correct choice. What would you guys choose and why.
I’d choose Pringles because Bugles are gross? I didn’t even know they still made Bugles, I thought they died with the nineties.
I guess not, this store in my town still has them occasionally.
Definitely Pringles - Bugles are loaded with a somewhat surprising amount of saturated fat, and they’re quite oily. In a way, they seem like cone-shaped corny pork rinds?
my mom used to always make my lunch and she would stick these nacho bugles in my bag. I couldn’t even give them away during lunch. They were the nastiest things. I doubt they’ve gotten any better. I could eat a whole can of sour cream & onion pringles though.
Bugles taste better and are better for you, and If I wanted Chips, I’d get Lays. I can eat like 10 Pringles before I feel full. They’re pure fat and salt and they taste like cardboard and feel like plastic in my mouth. Fucking YUCK.
Damn, I would have taken them. Those were my favorite! Sadly, all I can find anymore are regular ones. I remember there’s a vending machine around here that sells the nacho ones, but I can’t find it.

If you’re going to go the nutrition route in the argument, Pringles have a lot less saturated fat and sodium than Bugles do, and slightly less carbohydrates.
Sat fat is made out to be worse for you than it is, sodium is good for you, and there are many different kinds of carbohydrates, all of which are also good for you in the right context. Using less carbs as an indication that something’s better for you is a sign that someone doesn’t know much about nutrition.
Look at the fat sections on those labels. Bugles have 9g of fat and 8g are saturated. Pringles have 11g of fat and only 3g are saturated. How much of the unknown fat do you think is trans, or are you just assuming the rest is omega3 and 6? Did it ever occur to you that there might be as much trans in Pringles as there is saturated in Bugles? Have you ever asked yourself how they get every last Pringle to have the EXACT same width, radius, and curvature? Or why eating a can of Pringles feels like eating a stack of flavoured credit cards? This shit isn’t made from potatoes.
I’m not saying Bugles are good for you by any stretch, but they’re better than Pringles and they at least taste and feel like actual food when I’m eating them. They’re still both junk food though, and I’d still take Lays over either of them. Yay for actually resembling potatoes!
When I was young we used to slice and fry our own taters /snob
Potatoes are the food of the low class /snobbier
Potatoes served as an example against overt specialisation, /random quip
Hades, most people get daily more salt than they ought to.
That’s not the fault of bugles. It’s the fault of a diet that’s shitty from top to bottom. If you’re already getting too much salt and you’re choosing between Pringles and Bugles instead of Pringles and, say, brown rice… then yeah, you’re doing things wrong.
I doubt most people need the sodium in these chips. If you’re going to pick one, sodium should be a consideration. And many people try to keep track or carbohydrate intake, it doesn’t mean I don’t understand nutrition.
Im used to looking at carbs because I have to cook for someone that is diabetic, but I know that people like lower carb/ lower sodium/lower fat.
Whenever I get Pringles, it says Trans fat Free on the can, so there can’t be more than .49 of a gram of them. So, Id still think bugles are worse.
Pringles mostly because I eat the hell outta 'em.
how DO they make pringles so perfectly…?
pringles are a mash that is shaped instead of sliced potato, so they can make them all beautiful 
well thats not a interesting as i’d hoped.

What if I told you the factory is powered by the magic of Hopes and Dreams? (And Leprechaun slave labor)
I would say you are a LIAS! first of all hopes and dreams AKA women do not work, therefore they cannot power a factory. Second, you can not catch a leprechaun in order to make it a slave.
lol Getting a woman is your hope and dream? Just kidding:)
No, you can catch a leprechaun with a net made of magican unicorn hair. You just have to lure the unicorn to Candy Mountain first.
nope, not true.
