Pringles confirms it discontinued four flavors after fan question - admitting only chance of return
PRINGLES has broken the news to fans that a popular line of products is no longer being made.
The chip brand is one of the most recognizable at grocery stores thanks to its iconic tube packaging, and new flavors have come and gone over the years.
But this time, it has discontinued an entire lineup of products.
The news came in an X post response from the company after a fan wasn't seeing them listed on its website or in stores.
"Our line of Wavy Pringles were discontinued in June so until we perfect time travel or bring them back they will unfortunately not be available," the brand said.
In a reply, the disappointed customer wrote: "Aw man, so that's why I stopped seeing them in stores. That sucks, hope y’all bring them back soon!"

The wavy variety only lasted about two and a half years, after launching in January 2019.
According to Pringles, they were designed to feature a "big new crunch."
They could be bought in a variety of different flavors including fire-roasted jalapeño, sweet & spicy bbq, applewood smoked cheddar, and classic.
One fan wrote in a Walmart review of the classic wavy variety: "These are super yummy and addicting! The kids loved them. The wavy ridges add an extra crunch! I recommend these for any Pringles lover or potato chip fan!"

OTHER ALTERNATIVES TO BUY
While that particular Pringles lineup is gone, there are plenty of other name brands that make wavy options.
This includes Lays, Utz, Ruffles, and even some private label products such as Walmart's Great Value brand.
At Walmart, wavy chips sell mostly between $1.98 and $5 depending on the brand and size.
