Yeah, horse shit. I’ve had brands that use way less air in the bag and they weren’t destroyed, and I remember a time when companies in general didn’t use all the air in the bags and we weren’t getting bags of dust back then.
Which is my point. There is no reason to increase the air in a Pringle’s can. They have reduced the size of the can, increased the amount of air, all in the name of shrinkflation. Same as other bagged chips. All the excuses is just marketing bs.
Go on, have a google. The weight has consistently and distinctly and excessively changed. Surprise reveal, the changes only ever give you less product for the same, or higher price.
I mean, it’s a particularly bold type of stupid. Other poster claimed the air was for freight reasons. I asked for the source, and there was none. If you bothered to at least google, there’s plenty relating to air in chip packaging, including Pringle’s. Pro tip for amateur googlers: Add shrinkflation to the search to get specific results!
Old tasting no. It’s not the nitrogen that keeps them fresh, it’s the lack of Oxygen. It will of course keep them from crumbling to pieces though and that’s enough of a reason.
The glass is full: half of it is air.
Which is precisely why you don’t have a bunch of destroyed old tasting chips too.

Who looks at the weight?

Every savvy consumer.
Then why has Pringle’s added more air to their cans?

they just shrank the whole size a few years back in Australia. even skinny people can’t get their hands in now

Something to do with efficiency when they transport them via aircraft.
Source?
Is this some kind of news I’m not aware of and Google nor reddit is pulling for me?
… It’s just the inside of a Pringle’s can.
You specifically said they added more air, aka empty space to the cans.
I don’t see anything anywhere, like the other poster above said lol.
