Pringles’ is asking fans to help get a spider renamed due to its uncanny resemblance to the Pringles logo.
The Kidney Garden Spider looks just like Mr. P- from the slanted hairline to the beady eyes and even that signature ‘stache and the Kellogg’s brand hopes to put the little-known eight legged creature on the map.
The chip company is calling on fans to sign the petition to get the arachnid community to officially recognise the Kidney Garden Spider as the Pringles Spider. The petition was started by the company and addressed to a number of spider-related organisations including the International Society of Arachnology, European Society of Arachnology, American Arachnological Society and Asian Society of Arachnology and runs from June 27 to October 31.
Pringles has promised the first 1500 US supporters a free can of Pringles.
Fans can also ‘adopt’ a spider of their own, with photos of six different spiders to choose from and an official certificate acknowledging the adoption.
