A new kind of Pringle is launching in the UK soon and these come in both a brand-new shape and format. Instead of the famous tubes that once you pop, you can't stop, the new range arrives in multipacks containing six individual 20g bags, making them ideal for lunchboxes, picnics and on-the-go snacking.

And maybe the best part of this whole revelation is that the crisps themselves are actually miniature! Now you can eat a whole pack and feel guilt-free!

They will be available in three of Pringles' most popular flavours - Original, Sour Cream & Onion and Barbecue and the bite-sized crisps are designed to deliver the same familiar flavour and signature crunch, just in a much smaller package which we actually think will be a far more enjoyable experience (because does anyone else find the regular size Pringle is just a smidge too big to fully fit in the mouth comfortably?).

At the moment there's no definitive launch date, but we have been told it will be rolling out across the UK soon. And, the new format also solves one of the biggest Pringles dilemmas: opening a tube with every intention of having a few crisps and somehow finding yourself scraping the bottom 20 minutes later. The smaller portions make them a little easier to ration or completely inhale in one sitting.

The flavour line-up includes Original, Sour Cream & Onion (which continues to be one of the brand's most-loved varieties), and Barbecue - to bring that sweet, smoky flavour that always seems to disappear first at parties.

Whether you're packing a lunch, planning a picnic or simply curious to see what miniature Pringles look like, this is one launch we're very excited to get our hands on. Some snacks really are better when they're tiny.
