Fredric Baur - May 4, 2008The designer who invented the Pringles tube was so proud of his achievement that he's been buried in one.
Fredric J Baur asked for some of his ashes to be put in a tube and interred in a grave in his home city of Cincinnati. Baur, who died May 4th at the age of 89, created the tube and the curved system for stacking the potato snacks inside it in 1966.
Baur's children 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. The rest of his remains were placed in an urn buried along with the can.
