Even in the most unlikely scenarios, commonalities can appear. During the Super Bowl LIX commercials, Pringles and Little Caesars had similar concepts in their few seconds on the screen. Could this coincidence become the most flavorful food mashup that no one saw coming?
Food mashups are always a hot topic. From flavor crossovers to innovative product ideas, the combinations and possibilities would fill a football stadium.
When Pringles and Little Caesars celebrated flying facial hair in their Super Bowl LIX commercials, many people thought that the visual was just the start of a flavorful connection. Bringing together Eugene Levy’s eyebrows with Nick Offerman’s mustache was almost as unlikely as Seal actually becoming a seal in the Mountain Dew commercial.
But, the concept brought up a good point. Is it time for Pringles and Little Caesars toss their food brands onto a single plate?
The idea is not necessarily that far-fetched. Little Caesars has had pretzel crust pizza. Why couldn’t those infamous crisps flavor a crust. Whether it is the foundation of the dough or textural sprinkling on top, all the options seem plausible. The hows can vary, but the final product is all about the flavor.
Infusing Little Caesars flavors into a Pringles crisp seems more likely. The snack brand has had crossovers with Wendy’s and Hot Ones. Why couldn’t that pizza sauce or cheesy, buttery garlic topping on Crazy Bread come to the can? It seems like an easy and obvious collaboration.
Whether or not the Pringles and Little Caesars food mashup happens is debatable. It is the perfect time for the pair to capitalize on a moment that no one saw coming. It makes sense to give the people a taste of what they are craving.
Is there a strong likelihood that this type of moment could happen again? It is doubtful, but no one should never say never.
