>but other snack manufacturers objected, saying Pringles failed to meet the definition of a potato "chip". The US Food and Drug Administration weighed in on the matter, and in 1975, they ruled Pringles could only use the word "chip" in their product name within the following phrase: "potato chips made from dried potatoes".[14] Faced with such an unpalatable appellation, Pringles eventually opted to rename their product potato "crisps" instead of chips. This later led to other issues in the United Kingdom, where the term potato "crisps" refers to the product Americans call potato "chips".

not only potatoes, we've had a butter shortage because of some troubles in hokkaido

hokkaido is a very important place

Christ Japan get your shit together
Can't you lot import potatoes?

>>73497772
No, that's just some dumb clickbait article.

Pringles are made from a mix of potatoes and wheat. They're not potato chips because they're only 40% potato or something like that.

>>73497873
What, did the cows drown too?

>>73497854
dude, they even look japanese af though

>>73498036
If I were introduced to them at a later date, I would have noticed, yes. But they don't look like anything except tasty food when you've had them since before you can remember.

>>73497982
they did, but apparently, major domestic manufacturers have production lines optimized for hokkaido potatoes and they say changing it takes cost and time.

Is it really 73 yen for chips in Japan? I thought Japan was expensive.

>>73502966
typhoons are stronger than plants and greenhouses, moron

>>73503638
Of course they are, so it's better to put them all closeby so they'd get smashed all together.

>>73497013
Japan is notorious for protecting the domestic food products and shuting the foreign ones out.

As a consumer, I'm unsatisfied of that :((((

It's similar in America; they're called crisps, not chips.
I think it's something about them being made with a potato paste that's formed into shape rather than being actual slices of potato.

I mean the reality is that your pound has dropped heavily. One of the few staples of world power and you let it get destroyed. It was $2.50 or something when I was a child. And now its like $1.1us.

The reality of your class system is that wages won't keep up and you'll continue to grind your organs for the upper class like the monkeys you are.

So well done. At least you'll deport some poles I guess and a few racist fuckwits can have a good wank over it
