Few mascots are better known and more adored than the Pillsbury Doughboy. While the company's story begins in 1869, the Pillsbury Doughboy and his now-iconic "Hoo Hoo!" slogan met American kitchens for the first time in 1965. At one time, according to the company, "Pillsbury received 1,500 requests for autographed photos, and the Doughboy was receiving 200 fan letters a week."
