It turns out, there can be a wrong way to eat certain foods - and a TikTok user has revealed you may have been eating Pringles incorrectly.
Chip expert @cookinhungry took to the video-sharing platform to share their expert Pringle knowledge - and the side of the Pringle you choose to place on your tongue makes a huge difference.
'Did you know there's a correct way to eat Pringles,' he started the TikTok, showing a snack pack.
He then opens them, showing the stack of slightly curved chips in the container.

The Pringle aficionado said you should actually be eating them with the convex part facing your tongue for optimum taste
'We put the curved part in our mouth and just eat it like that right,' the Pringle enthusiast said, holding up the chip up as he pulled it from the packet with the concave part facing down.
He then proceeds to flip everything you knew about Pringles on it's head - literally - by turning the Pringle over.
The content creator explained this is because the seasoning is on the convex side of the chip.
'The reason is because most of the seasoning on all Pringles is on the top side,' he explained, showing off the side of the Pringle rounded outwards.
For those unsure if the Pringles aficionado is telling the truth, he urged everyone to rub each side of them to feel the seasoning on one side.
In 2017, Pringles told The Sun that only the top of the chips are dusted with flavoring, and the bottom of each chip is only seasoned by coming into contact with the top of the chip stacked beneath it.
'There's no wrong way to eat Pringles!' the company assured fans on its FAQ page.
'However, some people claim that the best way to eat them is with the "top" of the chip (the side facing the lid of the can) facing down.'

Earlier in the year, a TikTok star is on a mission to expose firms guilty of 'shrinkflation' - whereby they decrease the size of their products but keep the price tag the same.
Neal Chauhan - who works in brand strategy for Toy Soldier Marketing - accused a slew of brands of engaging in the practice.
In a video posted to TikTok, he highlighted the miniature sizes of products, including Starbucks, Pringles and even Tide PODS.
In the video, he uploaded a photo of a seemingly half-empty Pringles can, adding 'Don't get me started on Pringles.'
