She wants to replace the chocolate and marshmallows with vanilla yogurt and strawberries, thus turning a s'more into not a s'more. No thank you.

That's not a s'more ...
....however I would try it, it might be good.
It would make a good substitute ice cream sandwich if frozen.
mmmm... I didn't think to freeze it. Good idea! I may try this non-s'more this weekend.0 -
First Lady Michelle Obama is a great advocate for our kids and americans in general to get our bodies to move more and put nutritional food into it.0

She's an "idiot" who has a way better looking body, and better fitness stamina, than I do, so obviously she knows something. Also, don't forget, every First Lady is hooked up with some sort of pet project. Michelle Obama's just happens to be healthy diet and being physically active. Considering the fact that most American kids are overweight, it seems like a noble goal. Anyway, I'll bow out now, since this will clearly take a very ugly political turn and I happen to like and respect the Obamas, so...yeah.
well said. she has great arms and shoulders. she is a great role model.0 -
Mess with my smores

It's Obama's fault0

Yeah, I'm not going to touch this except to say that S'mores without chocolate is like sex, by yourself.

I think it looks pretty tasty. However, it's not a s'more and therefore should not be referred to as such. No marshmallow, no chocolate, no s'more. It's simply graham crackers, yogurt, and strawberries. I'd choose a s'more over that any day, if my macros allowed (and sometimes even if they didn't).0

NOPE! Former chocolatier here who made these - made my own marshmallow, absolutely not. I know I get preachy preachy with healthful eating but there's no way in hell a s'more is anything but its original ingredients. She can kiss my a** on that one.0

Man, I can't wait to pick these up.martyqueen52 wrote: »The new Oreo smores are absolutely amazing. I killed half a package last night, and will probably finish the rest tonight. I am pissed off at the small amount they give you when buying one of the "limited" flavors.
Easter may be over, but I highly recommend Peeps S'mores.

I had my first s'more in forever this week. Nope, not turning back now. I will be trying the peanut butter cup s'more this weekend.

When something's that good, I'm kind of glad they don't give you more to do more damage with.

No offense, but having a better body than someone else is not some sort of nutrition credential. Her initiatives have mostly been idiotic. This latest initiative is like bad humor. She has been known to eat junk food so why is she telling everyone else they can't? And studies have shown that telling people they "can't eat X" isn't effective anyway.0 -

I thought they tasted like sadness. I was so disappointed.
And now I am making smores tonight because of this thread. Thanks Obama.0 -
except she meant more as a healthy alternative not to completely eradicate smores....they sound good to me!
I see it as Hey instead of giving your child 10 smores with 0 nutrients give them 5 regular smores and 5 of Michelle obamas healthier ones! or for a quick healthy snack during the day make michelle obamas smroes!0 -

A traditional smore will give you: 140 calories, 1 protein, 21 carb, 3 fat. Not really 0 nutrition.0 -

they aren't alternative smores, they more of a parfait than anything. it's nonsense to call it a remade smore when it does not resemble a smore. its an alternative, but not a smore.
most people know that they shouldn't give their kid 10 smores, those that do give their kids, or themselves eat that many don't really care that there are alternatives.
If there are adults out there that don't know that eating mass quantities of smores isn't going to provide them with proper nutrition then there is more wrong there that won't be corrected by offering them a graham cracker with yogurt and strawberries, they need much deeper and broader education on nutrition.0 -

lol wut?
not to body shame- but holding her up as some sort of paradigm of fitness is absurd. what better looking body. She has almost nothing up top- you can't just toss out there b/c someone has different shape than you that they obviously have a clue.
I agree it's a nice idea to get people up to move more- but demonizing X food and replacing with Y is silly. nothing wrong with s'mores- plus who really eats smores every day .
(well to be fair- I eat marshmallows regularly. still not fat though- and my arms are way better looking)0 -
Why would someone give their child ten s'mores anyway? My nieces are fine with one or two.0
