The Pillsbury Doughboy - Passed Away
Veteran Pillsbury spokesman, The Pillsbury Doughboy, died yesterday of a
severe yeast infection and complications from repeated pokes to the belly.
He was 71.
Doughboy was buried in one of the largest funeral ceremonies in recent
years. Dozens of celebrities turned out, including Mrs.Butterworth, the
California Raisins, hungry Jack, Betty Crocker the HostessTwinkies, Captain
Crunch and many others.
The graveside was piled high with flours as longtime friend, Aunt Jemima,
delivered the eulogy, describing Doughboy as a man who "never knew how much
he was kneaded." Doughboy rose quickly in show business but his later life
was filled with many turnovers.
He was not considered a very smart cookie, wasting much of his dough on
half-baked schemes. Still, even as a crusty old man, he was a roll model for
millions.
Doughboy is survived by his second wife, Play Dough. They have two children
and one in the oven.
The funeral was held at 3:50 for about 20 minutes.
