MARSHMALLOW AMBITION

From the Marion County Record in Marion, Kansas, news of marshmallow plans with an eye on history:


Marion County Park and Lake Superintendent Steve Hudson outlined his plan for a record breaking marshmallow roast scheduled for March 24 at the Marion Chamber of Commerce Luncheon on Friday.

Hudson is hoping to attract at least 1,000 people to the event. They would enter through a staging area and supervisors would watch them attach one marshmallow to a roasting stick. Participants cannot put 20 marshmallows on one stick.
Then witnesses would watch them at the pile to make sure the marshmallow was blackened and held over the fire 10 seconds, a record book regulation. Participants can not release the marshmallow straight into the fire.
