Here's the bag. Each marshmallow is easily twice the size of a normal marshmallow. Seems like a great idea at first, but Isabel found a few drawbacks.
Here's the first test mallow. As with most of her marshmallows, this one is in the very early stages of roasting (you can tell by the fact that it lacks the charred black color showing it's done)
Problem #1 - when the marshmallow does inevitably burst into flame it has enough fuel and surface area to continue burning for hours if left alone. Isabel notes that it takes quite a bit of effort to put out the fire! She blows on this one for several seconds before it finally goes out.
Problem #2 - The marshmallow is too large to eat in one bite (though she tried). Since the marshmallow is so big, the surface melts and cooks (burns), but the inside is still raw, hence the look on her face. Most of what doesn't fit in your mouth ends up on your face. She ended up "re-cooking" this mallow three times.
Big fires seemed to be the norm with this big mashmallow!
Isabel was only able to eat 2 of these new larger mallows! At the end of the test, we've decided that more testing is necessary before we can really decide if these new marshmallows are better. Next time, we'll make smores!
