The big pringle manufacturing companies which press the chips in the same shape so they all look the same.

I actually know this! :) I don't know how, but I was once bored enough to have watched a kids show, with my little sister, where they went into the Pringles factory. They are made unlike any other chips. They don't even start out with Potatoes...they import potato flakes (highly processed potato bits). They use this as the main part of their dough, along with oils, heat it alot, pour it into a mold where the chips are then fried and then put along a conveyor belt and into the can. It is for storing purpose that they make them the shape that they do and seal the cans with Nitrogen in order for them to taste "just as good" when we buy them! :) Fatty...but oh so good. Unlike any other chips...because they are made with flakes. (The mold is the way they get their shape and look like eachother!)

Manufacturing:
"Pringles contain the same basic ingredients found in other potato chip products. The unique way we make Pringles makes them stand out in the potato chip crowd. We purchase potatoes in the form of potato flour, then add just enough water to form a smooth potato dough. The chips are cut into one uniform size and shaped to a saddle which takes them through the quick frying, seasoning and stacking, without any handling. That’s how you get pringles: Fresh, flavorful chips of uniform size and quality, stacked for your enjoyment. Thank you for your interest in Pringles."

Pringles are made from potatos that underwent potato boot camp.

It's made from a mash of potatoes, not just cut ones

they aren't cut potatoes. I am guessing that its a potato mixture and they are formed and cooked in that shape.
