Them Chips is good, tho!!!


You might have heard this or not, I have been up since 6am so I sort of got my world news done. Fredric J. Baur(89), an organic chemist and food storage technician for Proctor & Gamble, better known for the Pringles design & can(also credited for invention of freeze-dried ice cream and cooking oil) passed away May 4th, this year. R.I.P. Here is were it gets odd, following his request to be cremated the remains were then placed in a Pringles can. WHAT!?! Supposedly, Baur was extremely proud of the design which was also patented in the early '70's.
