S’Mores Wars.

Here's a quick article on two of the many S'Mores Makers that've hit the market recently. You don't need a campfire to have your grahamy choco marshgoodness these days -- all you need are some sterno cups and a low-watt bulb. Featured in the article is the "Hershey's S'Mores Maker," a kiddy device, and the "Casamoda Indoor/Outdoor S'Mores Maker," a machine meant for people much better than you or I.

Wait a minute! Can’t you just you use the stove you probably already have??
Matt should get paid for talking about these products that no one needs.

Matt needs to get paid more than he is, for two reasons. One, because his articles are good. And two, because he needs a new table, one without green Contact paper on it.

OK, I just realized its a patio table, so that’s totally different.

I’m going to have to pick up that nicer machine. Even though I realize that i probably don’t need it…..maybe i’ll give it to someone, then make them use it for me. They’d also be storing for me.

phunqsauce, every Star Wars fan should read this http://www.filmthreat.com/Interviews.asp%3FFile=InterviewsOne.inc&%3BId=8">Film Threat interview with the producer of the original two films, Gary Kurtz.

I went to a lock-in with my church once, about 15 years ago as a junior high kid…

We played a game called "Chubby Bunny" involving sticking those stupid, engorged, enormous marshmallows in your mouth, one at a time and seeing who could still say the words "CHUBBY BUNNY" without vomiting.

Well, most got to 10 or 12, but I got to 16 without having the Ultimate Vomit right infront of all of my fellow peers… the taste of marshmallows was just too gross, and the gooey white stickiness was oozing down my throat and set off my gag-reflex like none-other. It was even worse than that paste-clay stuff that they put around your teeth in the dentist’s office to take a molding for braces. And that’s BAD!

Anyway, I want you to know that your article helped me to relive that experience about 10-times over, and I dry-heaved right here at my computer screen.

Uhm, needless to say, I don’t like s’mores anymore!

Chestnuts roasted by Barry J. Deeper @ 09/07/2004 11:44 AM

Oh, to conclude the story from before, I eventually met a guy who was able to stuff 23 marshmallows in his mouth without gagging, but I think he was gay… which may not speak to the marshmallows, but it may speak to the gag-reflex. Being a hetrosexual, there was only so much I could do.

Dont think about it too much.

As a Post-Text to the story, I have heard that many churches no longer allow that game to be played b/c some kid in Indiana actually died from it.

Best thing about the ol’ Chubby Bunny, is making the other guy lose. Here’s how I made Little Brother blow the remains of about 20 ‘mellers: I looked him square in the eye, and said, "But do they come out crunchy in the microwave?" Now even I don’t know why a non sequitor from a fishstick ad came to mind, but the result was spectacular. Ever see marshmallow goo come out someone’s nose?

Samantha Newark talks about http://www.dvdtalk.com/interviews/003205.html">Jem and The Holograms. Do not confuse her with the current UK singer actually named http://www.atorecords.com/index.php?title=artists&aid=7&what=bio">Jem.

Bwahahahahahahah!!

S’mores aren’t half as bad for you as cigarettes, Matt.

Chestnuts roasted by 4thDown @ 09/07/2004 2:47 PM

I just travelled through time and the 4th wall and I must say that was a boring s’mores. What’s the un-abbrieviated name for s’mores anyway? I will use these divices to cook rat meat in the appocalyptic future.

The changes to the SW DVDs aren’t as bad as I thought they’d be. Don’t get me wrong, as I am majorly pissed off about the Jango Fett dubbing and Hayden Christensen being put in ROTJ, but stuff like fixing the Dianoga eye and the Rancor’s matte lines are good.

Chestnuts roasted by Behonkiss @ 09/07/2004 3:14 PM

I think those Russel Stovers pre-made S’mores are pretty good…..

Chestnuts roasted by Jessie @ 09/07/2004 3:46 PM

Well, king, you are the Ruler of All Those Non-Sequitor-esque. Little Brother knew he had no chance, once you opened your mouth and started to talk.

Chestnuts roasted by trajeal @ 09/07/2004 4:32 PM

Yeah, I hear’d ’bout the kid who died. Seems they were using miniature ‘mallows. One of the little buggers decided to go down the wrong pipe. End result: no mo’ Chubby Bunny. Also known as The Day Stay-Puft Cried.

Chestnuts roasted by kingklash @ 09/07/2004 5:26 PM

Forget the Chia Saga. WHERE THE HELL IS THE SUPER-NATURAlS ARtICLE!!! ALso, WHat do you have against regular Mighty Beanz Matt. THe New Series Four is really pretty cool.

Chestnuts roasted by TOM @ 09/07/2004 11:54 PM

Next experiment…Try making cereal smores with Golden Grahams cereal, a Cocoa Pebbles piece and a Lucky Charms marshmellow. :)

Chestnuts roasted by Garrison @ 09/08/2004 2:36 AM

First????

Uh… I guess not.

Chestnuts roasted by Sweetie @ 09/08/2004 8:39 AM

I think that UK singer Jem should dress up as Jem from Jem and the Holograms :)

I give the Casamoda a huge thumbs-up. (Serious, yo. My thumbs are like Uma Thurman’s in Even Cowgirls Get the Blues.) The only problem is having to buy cans of sterno for it… The staff at my friendly local Wal-Mart had no idea what it was. Someone finally managed to direct me to the camping equipment… Anyway, Casamoda rocks, and the sterno makes it rock with a pretty blue flame that roasts those Fluffy-Puffs quite nicely.

Chestnuts roasted by Jeremy @ 09/08/2004 10:48 AM

I’ve never had a smore in my life, not even a fake one. Now I want one! :( !
(What Chia article?) *goes and looks*

Chestnuts roasted by Sarah @ 09/08/2004 12:46 PM

Is there any safe way to eat a smores? I can never manage not to get that crap on my hands when I bite into it.

The Gram crackers are always sectioned off bigger then any normal sized mouth so you can forget about cramming the whole thing in at once.

Besides I like to nibble and eat slow. Shoving the whole thing in to avoid sticky hands just ruins the moment.

So if anyone has any tips on how to correctly eat a smores please post them.

keep going with the "worst [stuff] ever" expositories…I havnt been on for a while but laughed my ass off about the arcade, golf course and snake zoo.

Chestnuts roasted by missy @ 09/08/2004 2:53 PM
