Pringles Wants To Bury You In A Pringles Urn

You never know how a brand is going to take a negative review of their product. I have wondered about the conversations they must have at HQ when I tell the truth on a real stinker. I’ve certainly not gotten any pushback enough that I thought my life was in danger. Well, until now. One recent new product review was so negative that I thought I was being targeted.

Was Pringles Trying To Threaten Me?

Last week I got a package in the mail from Pringles with little context on what they were sending. All that was inside was a cardboard coffin with a custom-made all-black Pringles can. The only thing inside was a note that said “In 2008, one man made the ultimate commitment. Will you?” The first thing I thought was this must be a threat.

You see, I recently gave the Pringles Mingles a not-so favorable review. Upon Googling “2008 Pringles” an article about the inventor of the Pringles can who was buried in one in 2008. Was this a warning? Were they going to do the same thing to me as they did the Pringles can creator? It turns out, it was just a badly timed tease at their next social media campaign. I’m glad we’re still on good terms, Pringles.

Will And Taste-ament

Pringles is inviting fans to make the ultimate commitment: sign a “will and taste-ament” pledging to be buried in a Pringles can for the chance to win an urn. Well, not just any urn. One crafted with precious metal and complete with a removable custom lid that mirrors the iconic Pringles can silhouette.

In addition to the urn, one lucky fan will receive an “afterlifetime” supply of Pringles. That is, 200 years’ worth of Pringles. Enough to enjoy for life and pass down to someone of your choosing. I am available for you to pass the other half of the free Pringles down to if you have no other next of kin!
