Charlie, you have such neat printing! Is the ink jalapeno-flavored?

They do have educational ones which probably have multiplication on them.

I envision a run on the general trivia Pringles Prints by MINI owners

eating blue ink scares me a little - even if it is "food safe"

I know how to mail a lone pringle in the most minimal ammount of packaging too. For some reason that was one of the experiments/contests back in HS physics. Although mine wasn't the lightest one out there it did make it through the mail intact. Part of the contest was also eating the chip after it arrived, so it prevented you from laquering the chip and slapping a stamp on it.

Where do you find these trivia Pringles? I can't say I've ever seen them, and I buy Pringles a lot.

They're Pringles Prints and I like MadHatter said, they haven't gotten to all markets yet and I would bet that chip came from the Guinness World Records 2006 edition

Yeah I suppose Delaware is a little slow on these things. I'll keep an eye out.

MandaBoo is right, 2006 Guinness World Records edition...

I have to go on a trip and don't have time to post another chip right now, but I have another one I will add here on the official potato chip thread at NAM...
