Not putting marshmallows into toasters.

I'm sorry to hear that.

Only done it like once or twice my whole life.

The whole, "putting some stick I found on the ground into food that I will then later eat" has always been pretty off putting to me.

I've done it but I kept burning it and I couldn't figure out why.

I've never even learned how to hunt, kill and skin a marshmallow.

Neither were 99% of the people who've toasted marshmallows.

It's something I wouldn't pick up and use if I found it on a restaurant floor. I'd rather use a twig.

The outdoors is too dangerous for Gen Z and some millennials. They wouldn't know what to do if a bear approached them.

It's not something I've ever done. Even when camping. I'm British though so maybe that's why.

for people that haven't, does that mean you don't know what toasted marshmallow tastes like? because toasted marshmallow is like 100x better than regular marshmallow.

Still seemed gross.

Using coat hangers is a new one, never heard of that before.

Srsly. And it hardens the stick.

Sooo... do people not know that you can literally buy clean sticks specifically made to be used to toast marshmallows?

A lot of times (especially in the summer), you'll find them in an aisle right next to the marshmallows, chocolate, and graham crackers so you can make s'mores.
---

On a scale of one to 10 I'd say I'm probably an 8. I hide it well in my day to day life. Most people who know me would probably only rate me at an average 5.

I used to enjoy s'mores as a kid. Not so much these days. But I'll happily toast a few marshmallows and eat them with some chocolate while everyone else makes their little sandwiches.

Maybe it is a language/culture thing, but the idea of Graham Crackers and what recipes they are used for has always disgusted me. Crackers are the last thing I would use with Marshmallows, Cheese Cake etc...

Graham crackers are more like a cookie than a cracker, but they're shaped like crackers. They vaguely taste of honey and molasses more than wheat or flour.

It's kind of like how when British people refer to cookies as biscuits, and I throw furniture at the wall and scream in a primal rage. Biscuits are a totally different thing! GRARGH!

Only other type of biscuit I can think of is how we use it in Dutch, where biscuit refers to a specific kind of cookie.

Trying to make sense of the other use on Google, calling a cake a biscuit? That is even weirder than I would have dared to predict...

Nope, nope, and nope.

To an American, a biscuit is basically similar to scones.

I'll allow it if the chippy serves with malted vinegar and ginger beer, and tbh I'd prefer the fries.

I do love me some fish & chips...
