The Pillsbury Doughboy is, or at least was, married. In the 1970's, Poppin Fresh was joined in advertisements by his wife, Poppy Fresh. Poppin was originally voiced by Paul Frees, who has far too many credits to mention. When Frees died, the voicing was taken over by Jeff Bergman, who also supplied the voice for Charlie the Tuna.
Though there is some disagreement about who at the ad agency actually conceived of the idea of Poppin Fresh, one of the first people to commit Poppin to paper was Martin Nodell, better known as the comic book artist who created The Green Lantern.
