John Oliver of HBO’s ‘Last Week Tonight’ threw down the challenge and it has solved one of the great mysteries of the last 53 years. What does the body of the Pringles mascot – whose name is Julius Pringle btw – look like?
The TV show is on their winter hiatus but before they wrapped last season, Oliver had joked, “What does the rest of the Pringle’s guy body look like? Is he tall or short? Does he have a lot of body hair or is he completely smooth?”
Well, the internet rose to the challenge!

Who knew there were so many people thirsty for Julius Pringle!?
But, still no official word from Pringles! So, John Oliver took it a step further and promised to donate $10k to the charity, Feeding America, if Pringles would finally tells us what the Pringles guy’s body looks like.
Two days later, Pringles accepted that challenge.
The moment @IamJohnOliver and @LastWeekTonight have been waiting for. In honor of every second John has thought of Mr. P’s body, we are donating $1 to @feedingamerica, which happens to be $10K. pic.twitter.com/Ori2jKJ8fz

That makes the total $20k for Feeding America, the U.S’s largest domestic hunger-relief organization, and it gives us peace. Another mystery for the ages solved.
