Adland Gives Eulogy to the Pillsbury Dough Boy

Jane Goldman, otherwise know and the Caffeine Goddes on Adland writes a humorous eulogy for the Pillsbury Doughboy.

Dozens of celebrities turned out to pay their respects, including Mrs. Butterworth, Hungry Jack, Califfornia Raisins, Betty Crocker, the Hostess Twinkies, and Captain Crunch.
The gravesite 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 in later life was filled with turnovers.
