Loco for Logos

Quiz: How well do you know these weird logos and mascots?

Including questions such as: “What is the official name of the Pringles man?”

HAVE YOU EVER heard of Lyle’s Golden Syrup?

Perhaps you have. Perhaps you even enjoy it of a Pancake Tuesday. Maybe you like it so much that you never even noticed the dead lion on the bottle. A dead lion surrounded by bees who have made their hive in its carcass, just like in the Bible.

The existentially horrifying and very realistic dead lion, which has served as mascot and logo for Lyle’s since 1883, has been replaced this week – making this world a slightly more boring place.
