Do we like Pringles?

Stackable potato-based crisps brand, made by Kellanova (now part of Mars Snacking); Kellanova is US-based.

Our score: 4 out of 10. A well-loved snack, but it's ultra-processed and has a history of label lawsuits. We found little on the good side, so we'd hold off.

Pringles is the stackable crisp in the tube. It came from Procter & Gamble, then Kellogg, and its maker is now Kellanova. Mars said it completed its acquisition of Kellanova in December 2025, after it got all regulatory approvals.

The deal was valued at $35.9 billion in cash, at $83.50 a share. Pringles now sits inside Mars Snacking, next to other big snack names.

The drama has mostly been about labels. In 2017 Barry and Mandy Allred sued Kellogg, then Pringles' owner, over Salt & Vinegar chips. They alleged the packaging implied natural flavours when the chips contain artificial ones. In 2018 a federal judge ruled the class action could go ahead. We didn't find how it ended.

We didn't find a Pringles recall or regulator fine. We also found nothing we could verify on its workers or tax. With no standout good deeds and a history of label disputes, we land a bit below the middle.
