Pillsbury Dough Boy Dies At Age 71

9 June 2009 17 Comments

The Pillsbury Doughboy died yesterday of a yeast infection and complications from repeated pokes touch-the-tummyin 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 Jemi2513532481_33fb8e7aff_oma 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; 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.

    71 years old you say? I’m sure Pillsbury will ‘turnover’ in his grave when Play Dough goes on the “Maury” show!

    Hey. One of the lessons of history is that nothing is often a good thing to do and always a clever thing to say.
    I am from Burma and know bad English, give true I wrote the following sentence: “Blackjack, i will well provide this, if you are also, and you start to read, you are not approaching player common.”

    Thank you so much for your future answers 8-). Shari.

    My first thought was that this was a ‘half baked’ idea. Mind you, I used to find Pilsbury a bit of a ‘crusty’ character, who on occasions showed traits that made me believe that he was a ‘few sandwiches short of a picnic!!’
