Thrillist's video: History of Pringles

Why are Pringles called “crisps” and not “chips”? Did you know the guy who designed Pringles was buried in an actual Pringles tube? And what’s up with that mustachioed mascot? Since their inception back in the 1950s, these saddle-shaped beauties have remained perfectly stackable and highly lunch packable. Pringles were no overnight sensation, but with the help of a little advertising and Brad Pitt, they entered the ranks of snack food royalty.
