The idea certainly intrigues me.

Used to love them as a kid. Eventually decided I didn't like them enough to justify the sticky fingers.

What even is marshmallow. Seems unnatural.

[–] Ephera@lemmy.ml 9 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Originally, they were made from the marshmallow plant, by the way: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marshmallow#History

But yeah, the modern-day formula is quite different and rather highly processed...

Marshmallow is basically cooked and whipped sugar.

Mallowed marsh dude. Basic science

Sugar and gelatin, which is made from Pig bones and hooves mostly.

So depends on your definition of natural.

Thank you for inviting me into your home, it seemed lovely. I gotta go home now and see if I can beat a thought from my own brain.

Are you friends with an asshole beer can who takes you on interstellar adventures?

I've never tried this. Is it sweet?

[–] n0respect@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

It's basically whipped corn syrup, so yes. It has the texture of a mousse, and a little bit oozy.

[–] PunnyName@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

I've tried that. Enjoy having your mouth glued shut.
