Pringles is introducing a special edition Pickle Rick flavor based on a hit episode from Rick and Morty. The crisps reference an episode where Rick turns himself into a pickle to avoid family therapy, and boast packaging that depicts the mad scientist as a pickle.
The Pringles Pickle Rick crisps are set to begin appearing in grocery stores early next year, offering a fun way for fans of the show to add to their collection.
The collectible crisp flavor inspired by the award-winning series is helping to kick off a 2020 partnership with Adult Swim and Rick and Morty, and fans can expect to see a 30-second Big Game spot during the second quarter.
