The Pillsbury Dough-boy died yesterday of a yeast
infection and trauma complications from repeated pokes in the belly. He
was 71.
Dough boy was buried in a lightly greased coffin. Dozens of celebrities turned out to pay their respects, including Mrs. Buttersworth, Hungry Jack, the California Raisins, Betty Crocker, the Hostess Twinkies, and Captain Crunch. The grave-site was piled high with flours.
Aunt Jeremiah delivered the eulogy and lovingly described Dough-boy as a man who never knew how much he was kneaded.
Born and bread in Minnesota , Dough-boy 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 was a crusty old man and was considered a positive roll model for millions.
Dough-boy is survived by his wife Play Dough, three children: John Dough, Jane Dough and Dosey 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.
If you smiled while reading this, please rise to the occasion and pass it on to someone having a crumby day and kneading a lift.

Since it's also Easter Sunday Morning I thought it appropriate that we have this message presented as a public service!
