CINCINNATI, Ohio (AP) -- 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. Fredric J. Baur, of Cincinnati, died May 4 at Vitas Hospice in Cincinnati, his family said. He was 89.

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.

Did the rest of his ashes go into a dip container?

That's how Cray wants to be buried.

I figured cray would be disposed of in the proper, eco-friendly matter. Where I live, it's a fine to just throw batteries in the trash.
