Since things ar soooooooooooooo quiet this may help............. some good ole fashion food news :..."The Pillsbury Doughboy - dead at 71. Veteran Pillsbury spokesman,
announced: The Pillsbury Doughboy, died yesterday of a severe yeast
infection and complications from repeated pokes to the belly. He was 71.
Doughboy was buried in one of the largest funeral ceremonies in recent
years.
Dozens of celebrities turned out, including Mrs. Butterworth, the
California Raisins, Hungry Jack, Betty Crocker and the Hostess Twinkies.
The graveside was piled high with flours as longtime friend, Aunt
Jemima, delivered the eulogy, describing 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 many turnovers. He was not considered a very smart cookie, wasting
much of his dough on half-baked schemes. Still, even as a crusty old
man, he was a roll model for millions. Doughboy is survived by his
second wife, Play Dough. They have two children and one in the oven. The
funeral was held at 3:50 for about 20 minutes."
