Tribal People Try Pringles for the First Time
About this video
Pringles chips, tried for the first time by villagers from rural Punjab, Pakistan. Nobody tells them what to say. Some like it, some don't, and in the Tribal People Try way they explain exactly why.
What is chips?
Packaged snacks: Pringles, Doritos, Cheetos, Takis, Lay's flavours from around the world, Japanese Kit Kats, pretzels. Crisp flavours differ wildly by country, and the video is usually a tasting flight.
Pringles were launched by Procter & Gamble in 1968; the chips are made from potato dough pressed into a saddle shape so they stack in the tube.
What to watch for
Crunchy and salty is always fine. Flavour dust is the interest: sour cream and onion, ranch, salt and vinegar and cheese powders are all new, and Takis' lime-chilli heat is the closest to home. Cheetos' orange fingers get laughs.
The comparison they always make
Nimko, chana chor garam and masala crisps are the village snacks — spicy, tangy, dry. Foreign crisps are judged as underseasoned unless they are hot.
