Two Moustachioed Icons Collide, as Super Mario warps from a Green Pipe to A Tube of Mystery Pringles in a supermarket you!
PRINGLES X SUPER MARIO MYSTERY FLAVOUR
Tube Appearance: Metallic Silver, almost as a reference to the Nintendo S.N.E.S. Where usually a cartoon of the ingredients would be, A Mario Coin Block with a Question mark floats in the void, on the back is the official Nintendo product Stamp of Authenticity.
Calorie Count: 158 in a 30g serving, the Item contains 5 servings.
Taste: The Mystery flavour had to be themed to Mario to work, So going in blind, I expected this item to be either A) some kind of Italian Dish or B) a Mushroom dish, but given that mushrooms don't exactly translate into crisp flavours, its going to be linked to Mario via his nationality as an Italian or Italian-American.
Before I tasted these, I read through Ingredients to somehow guess what this was. So apart from the things you'd expect, what caught my eye was meat extract, tomato extract, Garlic, chilli and Jalapeño powders.
An Italian dish with Meat, Garlic and Tomatoes
But it was the spices that sealed it for me and despite the omission of Actual cheese in the ingredients, I am convinced the flavour is...
PEPPERONI DEEP DISH PIZZA!
While I can't taste cheese, the snack is vegetarian, not Vegan, and given a real Deep Dish pizza is Passata covering the cheese, nit the other way around, the overpowering Spices and tomato is understandable if it's there. I was convinced for a while, the flavour could be Spaghetti and meatballs, but the meat flavouring they used is unmistakably Pork and Pepperoni spices, but Spaghetti and meatballs was a possibility.
And that's it for now. I'll be back next month over at Bogger Box office to review Kneecap. And here to review Intimidation Games a fortnight later.
