Pringles can designer buried in tube

CINCINNATI, June 2 (UPI) -- The children of the Ohio man who designed the Pringles potato chip can said they granted his request by burying him in one of the tubes after he was cremated.

Fredric J. Baur, of College Hill, Ohio, was buried in the crisp's signature round can after he died May 4, at the age of 89, the Cincinnati Enquirer reported Saturday.

A separate urn also held part of Baur's ashes.

The organic chemist and food storage technician also is credited with developing a wide range of products including freeze-dried ice cream and cooking oil.

Baur's daughter Linda said her father was most proud of his design for the Pringles can, which he obtained a patent for in 1970, the report said.

Baur spent much of his career at the Cincinnati-based consumer goods manufacturing company Procter & Gamble.
