Spreading Sweetness into Cavities of Depravity: Mr Fluffy's Marshmallow Fluff (fat free!)

Jimmy Weasel - Saturday, June 7, 2003 - Print Version

This jar cost me $3.99. Dental work can host hundreds. Does it balance out? Can one lead to the other? We are getting ahead of ourselves...

I'd never thought about making sandwiches of marshmallows before, but upon this day, I was feeling adventurous.

"How much can it hurt?" I asked myself. Not very, is the likely answer. But spreading it upon pikelets or bread is reminiscent of spreading sticky putty. I can't get it off the knife. And now I have trouble moving the knife from the bench. There is no distinct odour, as most spreads tend to have, but I'd swear I could smell a whiff of tooth decay as I opened the jar. And a voice from behind said "What the hell is that?"

"Mr Fluffy's Marshmallow Fluff" I replied.

"I'm putting your rent up. You pay your own dentist bills from now on". The voice harangued.

It's a jar of pure SWEET, containing only 213g of glucose syrup, sugar, dried egg white and artificial flavour. To put things into perspective: 1 teaspoon (or 9 grams (whichever is the nearest (by far))) contains 30 calories.

"That's about the same as an apple" the same voice told me, seeming to know everything.

"I can't taste it though. It doesn't taste like marshmallow. It doesn't taste like anything" I stated. And it doesn't. All I can taste is sugar. So that's 60 bland calories I didn't need or enjoy.

But the intestinal invasion wasn't enough. I need more about my marshmallow fluff. Surely there's more than just spreading. And there is. The jar itself specifies how to make a milkshake using limited amounts of fruit, ice-cubes and a heaping helping of the Fluff. The website details recipes of how to ruin perfectly good cheesecake, popcorn and yoghurt.

If you don't care for teeth or taste, your spread is ready.

Where in Kentucky - Mammoth Cave National Park: Monstrously, and seemingly neverending, sitting under the home ground of Colonel Sanders, the world's largest cave system. Yucatan comes nowhere close. Not even Cocklebiddy poses a threat. No comparison. Small holes looking up at a big fat long one. Sadly, with possible age and lack of food, no minotaurs to be found within the lime walls.
Homebrew Diary - Wheatbeer of misery: If what can turn a foul mood around becomes the harbinger of the foul mood, what happens next? Turn it into a learning experience. And when that learning curve makes a late break over the plate, you'd better start to swing away.
Homebrew Diary - Blackrock IPA + Hops: It doesn't take a big man to admit that he drinks. It takes a big man to get wasted and perform impromptu sermons naked from a balcony; raving upon the ravages of the insanity of stata bylaws and noisy offspring in adjoining arpartments...
