Is there a good place to find this kind of information?

Well, for the original red can style of Pringles chips they have: DRIED POTATOES, VEGETABLE OIL (CONTAINS ONE OR MORE OF THE FOLLOWING: CORN OIL, COTTONSEED OIL, SOYBEAN OIL, AND/OR SUNFLOWER OIL), RICE FLOUR, WHEAT STARCH, MALTODEXTRIN, SALT AND DEXTROSE. CONTAINS WHEAT INGREDIENTS.

Did you know last year Britain decided that Pringles were not potato chips and cannot be taxed?
----quote----
Under U.K. law, most food is exempt from Britain's 17.5 percent sales tax. Even so, the national tax office claimed that Pringles were covered by an exception for products such as potato chips, sticks or puffs ``and similar products made from the potato, or from potato flour, or from potato starch.''

Procter & Gamble's lawyers claimed at a May hearing that Pringles don't look like a chip, don't feel like a chip, and don't taste like a chip, according to the judgment. They also claim the snack isn't made like a chip since it is cooked from baked dough, not potato slices.

According the Pringles product website, the orginal chips by procter and gamble contains:

1) Dried Potatoes
2) Vegetable Oils that contains one or more from this list: corn oil, cottonseed oil, soybean oil, sunflower oil
3) Rice flour
4) Wheat starch
5) Maltodextrin
6) Salt

* of course the different flavors will have different ingredients from this list

The link in the source contains all of the official nutrient information for a grab and go pack and ingredients. The other link is the homepage.

But in May 2009 Pringles lost their appeal against having to pay tax on their product:
