Who gives a fuck about logos? The real crime here is the slogan. "You don't just eat em" The fuck is this? That is a horrible slogan. Yea of course I don't just eat them. I also digest and shit them out. I do that with all my food. How they changed to that from a fun slogan like "Once you pop, you can't stop" is beyond me. That slogan rhymed, it conveyed the thought that pringles are so good that once you start eating them you can't stop, and you pop the lid off the container. This is the real travesty.
