"Pillsbury Doughboy Dead at 71!" joke
Veteran Pillsbury spokesman Pop N. Fresh died yesterday of a severe yeastinfection. He was 71. Fresh was buried in one of the largest funeral ceremonies in recent years. Dozens of celebrities turned out including Mrs. Butterworth, the CaliforniaRaisins, Hungry Jack, Betty Crocker and the Hostess Twinkies. The graveside was piled high with flours, as long time friend Aunt Jemimadelivered the eulogy, describing Fresh as the man who "never knew how muchhe was kneaded". Fresh rose quickly in show business, but his later life was filled withmany turnovers. He was not considered a very smart cookie, wasting most ofhis dough on half-baked schemes. Still, even as a crusty old man, he was aroll model for millions. Fresh is survived by his second wife -- they have two children and one inthe oven. The funeral was held at 4: 25 for about 20 minutes.
