Everything pops with Pringles!

Wednesday, June 4th, 2008

From CNN:

The man who designed the Pringles potato chip packaging system was so proud of his accomplishment that a portion of his ashes has been buried in one of the iconic cans.

Baur’s children said they honored his request to bury him in one of the cans by placing part of his cremated remains in a Pringles container in his grave in suburban Springfield Township.

What can’t Pringles’ cans do? Extend your wi-fi? Check. Work as a lens extender for budding photographers? Done.

Serving as a final resting place was the obvious next step for the Pringles can.
