I think they taste exactly the same as they ever did. My boyfriend,
who's the celiac, keeps eating Pringles mostly because he forgot they
changed the recipe, and he has so far never had a reaction.  He's
pretty sensitive, too. Maybe he's just lucked out and got packages
where they used potato starch and not wheat starch.
