Since Pringles’ R&D is obviously well behind, someone could maybe try taking a crack at it themselves using a (well-cleaned) deodorant bottle and a stack of very specifically shaped potato chips.

What Problem?
Yes, cant see what problem that may be…
Problem #1:
Chips will need hole in them for climbing rod.
Ding.
Plus it would be far more of a pain in the ass to twist the damn thing than it would be to tilt the can.
Not necessarily if there is a bottom platform with a spring or other type of system that will push the platform upward. (I’m an engineer
)
That was my first thought. And I’m not an engineer. I’ll assume a lucky guess on my part.
Yeah, right, a spring… to throw all the chips in your face the second you open it…
i think a pushpop idea would work better as it wouldnt need to have a spiraling shaft going up the center
Better yet, a spring. More wasteful packaging, it would force a gap in the bottom of the can so less product would go in. The company would love it, higher prices because of the package and more profit per can!
Unless the added crap make the can so much more expensive that people don’t buy it any more…
It won’t work, this is just stupid.
“Corporate” has correctly judged that I don’t want to pay for some stupid contraption in the packaging.
Exactly, extra cost, larger pollution foot print, needless gimmick.
This is a clever idea, but where they went wrong was touting it as something more intelligent than the current model. Looks like the creator of this concept is a little nearsighted.
Yup, they’ve got it right.
I guess turning the can over to make them come out isn’t an option.Who knew all these years I was doing it wrong.
That only works if you have GRAVITY! Oh wait …. probably not a huge consumer market in places without gravity. turning the can over IS viable after all.
Lacking gravity, you use impulse. In zero gravity environments you can neatly pull off the can off the pack of chips. But be careful not to get floating salt into your eye!
Why don’t they just put them in a bag?
Broken pringles! Broken, crumbled pringles everywhere!
They’re doing you a favour. If you can’t get to the chips, you definitely don’t need ‘em.
Lays Stax are better anyway.
Thank you! I need a less problematic way of getting chips stuffed in my pie hole faster than getting my fat hand stuck down the canister.
Pringles cause anal leakage!
Why not just add a thin layer of plastic down the side to peal back, like they do with Oreo cookies?
why didn’t I thank of that.
fatties gonna fat
a slider on the side that push a pataform up solved
Ah, Pritt-gle. Is it sticky?
Here is what I don’t understand. Back in the day, the top of a Pringles can fit on the bottom. You could just take the top off, snap it onto the bottom the same way it snaps onto the top, and eat your chips. Now the bottom is too small and the top doesn’t fit. Why would they do that? It was such a convenient option. Now you have to deal with this extra cap laying around.

Good post, Love it. Keep it up. I appreciate it.
Repetitive post. Hate it. Name links to spam. I don’t appreciate it.
I kinda like the feel of a bunch of them dropping into my hand as I tilt the cylinder… also now I feel like having these D:
BRILLIANT!
Sometimes you just gotta let those hard-to-reach chips go.
There is no problem.
If your hand is slim enough to fit into the Pringles tin, then you can eat Pringles. Eat Pringles until you put on so much weight that your hand is too fat to fit into the Pringles tin. Then, you are forced to stop eating Pringles. Eat no Pringles until you lose so much weight that your hand is slim enough to fit into the Pringles tin.
Or something.
