Highly Scientific Marshmallow Poll

[Colorado]

Perfect off-season **** post about marshmallow doneness to follow. We just went camping with 25+ people so we got a pretty good discussion going around the campfire one night about the perfect roasted marshmallow. I'm a solid 5-6 honed after two summers as a camp counselor and frequent camper as an adult.

People that catch marshmallows on fire will be judged harshly in the next life.

Who is the idiot who was toasting one side of the marshmallow and leaving the other side of it raw. Don't they know how to turn a stick to evenly toast a marshmallow? Why am I screaming!?

I think you meant "poll", not "pole".

#6 is perfect IMO btw.

I'm between a 6-8. Anything 1-5, what's the point of even roasting it? Anything beyond an 8...I can't help you.

Fixed.


And #5-8 works for me.

#6

6 and 7 look pretty dang nice to me

 

[Gunnerclone]

Marshmallows are disgusting.

6 or 7 looks perfect.

Anyone who picks 9 or 10 needs to have a psychiatric evaluation.

Hey, I got my BS in English from ISU!

The "pole" was a deliberate attempt at childish humor.

Actually 4 and 5 remind me of the Eye Doctor visit. Better 4, better 5? I don't see much difference. 4 actually seems a little darker, but not as much area covered with the tan color.

Like mentioned above, it needs to be the whole marshmallow, not just one corner.

Anything past #4 is burnt and inedible.

That said, I literally can't remember the last time I had a marshmallow....

4-6 but must be whole 'mellow not just one side like the picture.

I don't see a lot of difference between 4 and 5, just different spot browned. I'm in the range of 4-7 on brownness, but the whole marshmallow would have to be toasted, not just a spot of it.

There’s 2 more after 8?

 

[aauummm]

7

 

[MeowingCows]

0-4, why bother? 5-7, sweet spot. 8-10, hockey puck.

 

[Rabbuk]

5-8

How much have I had to drink? That will change the acceptability scale immensely.

You mean it immensely changes your ability to properly roast rather than catching it on fire?
