This Chargrilled Korean flavour was part of the Pringles World of BBQ series.
The potato crisps were coated in a black and white powdered seasoning and emitted a generic sweet-savoury garlic aroma.
On tasting, a savoury soy sauce flavour appeared immediately, accompanied by a mild sweetness and a faint warmth from spices that developed towards the finish. The overall impression was underwhelming—reminiscent of a diluted attempt at bulgogi-inspired seasoning, lacking in depth or complexity. The flavour was inoffensive but ultimately unmemorable, with no detectable smokiness or char that would justify the “chargrilled” or “Korean BBQ” label. The result felt like a perfunctory gesture towards Korean flavours rather than a serious effort at representation.
This Pringles World of BBQ Chargrilled Korean contained 118 g. It was produced in Malaysia and purchased in Sydney, Australia in 2024.
