Back in the early '70's, my brother Mike thought that the Pillsbury Dough Boy was REAL!! One day at a supermarket, he got away from my Mom and he went to the refrigerator section of the store and he began busting open cans of Pillsbury biscuits looking for the Dough Boy to pop out. Biscuits were everywhere! The supermarket manager got a kick out of my brother's little stunt and didn't make my Mom pay for the cans that he busted open!!!
