Please join me in remembering a great icon. Veteran Pillsbury spokesperson, 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 a slightly
greased coffin. Dozens of celebrities turned out, including Mrs. Butterworth,
the California Raisins, Hungry Jack, Betty Crocker, the Hostess Twinkies,
Captain Crunch and many others.
The graveside was piled high with flours as long-time 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. Despite being a little flaky at times, even as a crusty
old man, he was still considered a roll model for millions.
Toward the end it was thought he'd raise once again, but he was no tart.
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.
