In Big Win for P&G, Pringles Found to be ‘Not Potato Crisps’: According to the judgment, P&G’s lawyers had argued that potato chips “give a sharply crunchy sensation under the tooth and have to be broken down into jagged pieces when chewed.” A Pringle, they continued “is totally different . . . a Pringle is designed to melt down on the tongue.”
The tax court agreed, though it didn’t address what Pringles are.
