Things I know about Pringles:
1) they were invented to monetise waste oil from soap production
2) they were designed to pack more efficiently than potato crisps, making them a more efficient product to ship
3) the first version was a flop because of the taste, but the economic case for the product was so strong that they kept trying til they got the taste right
4) the little lunchbox pringle holder was sized such that there will be a few spare Pringles left after the last filling, with the intention that the parent packing the lunchbox would also develop a Pringles habit
