Kor37 9 Posted January 18, 2008 Please join me in remembering a great icon of the entertainment community. 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 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 was still 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 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Theunicornhunter 2 Posted January 19, 2008 What, Sara Lee didn't rise to the occasion? And there's that terrible rumor that he didn't really die of a yeast infection but accidentally poisoned himself when he ate some cake that was actually Devil's Food. P.S. are you sure Trekz didn't "ghostwrite" that article? :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wishfire 2 Posted January 19, 2008 I'm sure he had complications from his "croissanting" habit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oldfan1 0 Posted January 24, 2008 Heard he caught the yeast infection from cheating on his wife with a french baugette, she was supposed to be a tasty bit of crumpet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
