If you created a revolutionary container for an up-and-coming potato chip, would you want to be buried in it?

Fredric J. Baur of Cincinnati had a final request.  He wanted to be partially buried in the can he is famous for creating — the patented Pringles container.  So he was.

The can was buried next to an urn with the rest of his ashes.

I have the utmost respect for final wishes.  But that doesn’t mean I can’t criticize them, right?

After all, some people want their families to spend thousands upon thousands of dollars to have them blasted into space, while others would like a simple Pringles can.  Only $2.99 at your local Superfresh.

This situation only begs for the question - did they take the crumbs out first?
