The Pillsbury Doughboy died yesterday of a yeast infection and trauma 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 Captain 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 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 was a crusty old man and was considered a positive roll model for millions.

Doughboy is survived by his wife Play Dough, two children, John Dough and Jane Dough, plus the bun they have in the oven. He is also survived by his elderly father, Pop Tart.

The funeral was held at 350 for about 20 minutes
 
Cute.
 
As a sidelight;

Upon hearing the news of the Pillsbury Doughboy,
Speedy Alka Seltzer commited suicide in Detroit today.
He threw himself from the Ambassador Bridge that crosses between Canada and the United States.
His last words were reported to be "Plop, Plop, Fizz, Fizz, Oh What A Relief It Is"
