Proctor & Gamble: Pringles Are Not Potato Chips

consumerist.com — Seeking to evade a 17.5% sales tax, lawyers for Proctor & Gamble successfully argued that Pringles aren't actually potato chips. Even though all Pringles containers are clearly marked "Potato Crisps," Proctor & Gamble's lawyers argued that "Pringles don't look like a chip, don't feel like a chip, and don't taste like a chip."
