The Pillsbury Doughboy died yesterday of a yeast infection and
complications from repeated pokes in the belly. He was 71. Doughboy
was buried in a lightly greased coffin. Dozens of celebrities turned
out to pay their respects, including Mrs. Butterworth, Hungry Jack,
The California Raisins, Betty Crocker, The Hostess Twinkies and Cap'n
Crunch. The grave site was piled high with flours. Aunt Jemima
delivered the eulogy and lovingly described 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 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, he still,
as a crusty old man, was considered a roll model for millions.
Doughboy is survived by his wife, Play Dough, his children, John and
Jane Dough, plus they had one in the oven. He is also survived by his
elderly father, Pop Tart. The funeral was held at 3:50 for about 20
minutes.
