Creator of Stove Top Stuffing Dies
 

Ruth M. Siems, a home economist who helped create Stove Top stuffing, a Thanksgiving favorite that will be on dinner tables across the country this year, has died at 74.

Siems, who worked for General Foods for more than 30 years, died Nov. 13 in Newburgh, Ind., after suffering a heart attack in her home.

sad to hear.

i tried making that crap once - i was disappointed, never made it again.

it's not really all that tasty, except at Thanksgiving with turkey.

RIP Siems. What you've shared to the people will always be remembered; especially on Thanksgiving day.

It sounds vile......

but Im sure he was a nice person - just a bad cook - rip

That's too bad. I love stuffing.

Thats terrible - I see another famous Thanksgivng related personality died yesterday as well:
Veteran Pillsbury spokesperson, The Pillsbury Doughboy, died yesterday of a severe yeast infection and complications from repeated pokes to the belly. He was 71. Doughboy was buried in a slightly greased coffin. Dozens of celebrities turned out, including Mrs. Butterworth, the California Raisins, Hungry Jack, Betty Crocker, the Hostess Twinkies, Captain Crunch and many others.

The graveside was piled high with flours as long-time 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 many turnovers. He was not considered a very smart cookie, wasting much of his dough on half-baked schemes. Despite being a little flaky at times, even as a crusty old man, he was still considered a roll model for millions.

Toward the end it was thought he'd raise once again, but he was no tart.

Doughboy is survived by his second wife, Play Dough. They have two children and one in the oven. The funeral was held at 3:50 for about 20 minutes

RIP I like ST stuffing

What?! What's wrong with you people?! Stuffing is delicious!

I like it with pork chops. For Thanksgiving you need to have the home made stuff though, much better.

Stove Top is okay for the rest of the year, but if my mom tried serving it during the holidays the family would fire her.

I heard she wants to get stuffed and cremated :1orglaugh

:thumbsup :thumbsup

Damn, I like ST. Yummiest with chicken or pork chops, (Sly knows his dinners!)

R.I.P. Ruth M. Siems. :(
