There’s only one way to watch your favorite tv shows and that’s with snacks in hand, amirite? Pringles has released some interesting flavors this year including turkey-flavored Pringles so it’s only fitting that we can expect to see more interesting flavors in the future. After all Pringles is known for its bold flavors and endless stacking possibilities!
With the Super Bowl 2020 on its way, Pringles has teamed up with Adult Swim’s award-winning series Rick and Morty to create a special edition Pickle Rick flavor. The new flavor was created to pay tribute to the viral hit episode “Pickle Rick”. In this episode, mad scientist Rick Sanchez turns himself into a pickle to avoid family therapy.
