Pillsbury Doughboy dead at the age of 71 - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Dear friends,

It is with the saddest heart I pass on the following: Please join me in remembering a great icon--the veteran Pillsbury spokesman. The Pillsbury Doughboy died yesterday of a yeast infection & complications from repeated pokes in the belly. He was 71 and 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 Captain Crunch.

The gravesite 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 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 even still, as a crusty old man, was
considered a roll model for millions. Toward the end it was thought he would rise again, but alas, he was no tart.

Doughboy is survived by his wife, Play Dough; two children, John Dough 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.

Is this true? There is no such thing as the doughboy. He's not real.

Well the doughboy was made with yeast. The yeast could have gone bad.
