> >An American icon, the Pillsbury Doughboy, died Tuesday of a yeast infection and complications arising from repeated pokes in the belly. He was 71. > >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 gravesite was piled high with flours. > >A 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 turn-overs. He was not considered a very smart cookie, but wasted much of his dough on half-baked schemes. Despite being a little flaky at times, he still, even as a crusty old man, was considered a roll model for millions. Toward the end, it was thought he would rise again. > >Doughboy is survived by his wife, Play Dough, and two children, John Dough and Jane Dough. Plus, they had one in the oven. He is also survived by his elderly father, Pop Tart. Doughboy was buried in a lightly greased coffin. The funeral was held at 350 for about 20 minutes. >
