So... Mum picked up a can of my favourite potato chips today while at the store. Pringles Original, they've been my favourite since forever. But opening up the can today... It just didn't taste right. I thought maybe there was something wrong with my palate, because I had just had lunch. But it really didn't taste like it used to. I looked at the can, it didn't say anything about a change in recipe or anything - but looking at the ingredients listing I noticed that one thing had changed:
Instead of 'sodium acetate' it now simply said 'salt'. Sodium acetate was the secret ingredient! Now it's just table salt!
Was pretty saddened about it, but I thought... "I'll wait a few hours and try them again, just to make sure." And so I did, just a few minutes ago now, and... No, it just doesn't taste right! They just taste like plain salty chips that could be any brand out there! I don't even want to eat them.
So I had to admit... My favourite potato chips are no more. ;_;
Rest in peace, Pringles Original.
You will be missed.
Farewell~
