Maltodextrin is a plant derived carb that’s used to thicken foods. It’s not a sugar. Also, Original Pringles, at least the in the US, don’t have citric acid.
Also worth noting, the reason Pringles have emulsifiers and thickeners is because the potatoes are mashed up and poured into a little mould. They need to be thickened and well mixed so they stay together when fried.
There isn’t anything too crazy in there. I’ve used these ingredients at home. They’re easy to get and can come from plants.

RUFFLES ORIGINAL
Old Dutch chip Original
Would have to compare the actual weights offered by buy weight you will always get more potato in other brands.
You’re right, but people also complain there is so much “air” in the bags that they are basically half filled.

Not saying they are bad, just saying you arn’t getting as much potato due the the amount of binders and flours.
