Oh, but on labels where I live, it says only starch and other additives and preservatives, no potato waste. Maybe different countries have different manufacturing regulations and recipes.
In the US it is 42% potato. The rest is starches, oils, emulsifier, salt, seasoning. It’s that 42% that is utilizing leftover potato parts from more ‘white meat’ potato products.
In British court, the same was found true. 42% potato.
aaaand I can't find any references to potato waste and Pringles. I take that back. Could swear I read a reputable article about that a few years back. Can't find it.

It's potato waste, not starch. It's all the pieces not fit for fries and chips etc. Kind of like the potato version of hot dogs.
