You know how you need snacks for a good road trip?!
I decided that my favorite jumbo marshmallows might be the perfect “road trip” snack. Bite sized. Sweet. Sugary. No utensils required. So I bought a bag of huge marshmallows on my way into the “glitter gig” so I would be able to zip out quickly at the end of work. Little did I know it was going to get so hot today?!

So I had been driving for about two hours when I decided it was time for a snack. So I reached over to open the bag. I reached in to pull out a jumbo marshmallow… and all I got was goo!

Who knew that marshmallows would melt in a hot car?!

So there I was with a finger full of gooey marshmallow. As I sat there wondering what to do… I had to have another finger full. And another… and another! But then it started to get messy. I needed a new plan. So here’s my thought… when the temperature goes back down, or if I turn the air conditioning on, will the marshmallows solidify again?!

Well, I couldn’t wait that long.

New plan… with a corner already ripped open in the bag, I figured I could squeeze the bag and have marshmallow goo squeezing out like a pastry bag. Well, not so smooth. Since the marshmallow is kind of sticky, it didn’t come out so easily. It kind of “bulged” out in a big white blob. So there I was trying to carefully bite off mouthfuls of marshmallow goo while not making too huge of a mess. Oh yeah, and driving at the same time!!!

Needless to say, the marshmallows tasted incredible!!!
Soft & gooey. Smooth & sweet. Yet sticky & messy everywhere.
So much so that I didn’t feel like I could set the bag down.

So I had to keep eating.
Before I knew it… the whole bag of goo was gone!!!

Sure, I could have pulled over to buy a new bag.
Sure, I could have pulled over and had a real meal instead of marshmallows.
Sure, I could have done a million other things.
But no, instead I squeezed all the goo into my mouth.
