Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 2 ingredients to avoid

Pringles Original Potato Chips scores 15/100 on Tallow — our avoid band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. Per serving it carries 1g fiber, 2g protein and 1g sugar. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

Pringles Original Potato Chips lists 10 ingredients, starting with Dried Potato, Vegetable Oil, Corn Flour, Corn Starch and Rice Flour. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

270 kcal per serving, or 540 kcal per 100g. Calories are only part of the picture — Tallow scores Pringles Original Potato Chips on what the ingredients are, not how many calories they carry.

At 15/100 Pringles Original Potato Chips scores worse than most chips & crisps we have scored. A higher-scoring option in chips & crisps is VANDY Classic Potato Chips at 95/100.
