      Ok, I can’t find a source for them actually doing that. I’ve tried for about an hour. Absolutely no even remotely credible news source has this as an article or even a blog post. Other than that, Pringles cans are specifically designed to prevent all of the crushing, along with the crisps themselves. And, uh, they are sold by weight meaning this holds no real merit even if a source for this could be found.

        Which is my point. There is no reason to increase the air in a Pringle’s can. They have reduced the size of the can, increased the amount of air, all in the name of shrinkflation. Same as other bagged chips. All the excuses is just marketing bs.

            Go on, have a google. The weight has consistently and distinctly and excessively changed. Surprise reveal, the changes only ever give you less product for the same, or higher price.
