Have you ever considered the art of packaging? The fragility of being? The science behind packaging protection? No?! Well Science Club decided to put it to the test.
Here presents Dr Latham’s ‘Post a Pringle’ Challenge…
Firstly, the biggest challenge of all was avoiding eating any before we began (Ready Salted if you’re wondering. Makes it a fair test).
Then, once we popped, our keen budding Scientists passed the first hurdle. They worked in pairs to protect a single Pringle enough so that when posted back to the school, the hope was to return in a single piece. Out of the five packages we posted, 2 came back unscathed. Not bad odds!
The remaining Pringles, of course, had to be eaten.
