>> Doughboy Dead at 71!

>>       --------------------------------------------------------------

>>       Veteran Pilsbury spokesman Pop N. Fresh died yesterday of a 

>>       severe yeast infection.  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 California 

>>       Raisins, Hungry Jack, and Betty Crocker, and the Hostess 

>>       Twinkies.

>>       

>>       The graveside was piled high with flours as longtime friend Aunt 

>>       Jemima delivered the eulogy, describing Fresh as a man who "never 

>>       knew how much he was kneaded."

>>       

>>       Fresh 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.

>>       

>>       Fresh is survived by his second wife.  They have two children and 

>>       one in the oven.

>>       

>>       The funeral was held at 3:50 for about 20 minutes.
