    I am from the UK and I used to do it all the time. I command you to get a candle and do it.

    Also to the Americans here, what biscuits should you use for smores? I had them made for me once and I'd like them again!

    a stick that could be covered in dog wee, bugs, who knows!!!

    bugs = protein, would be a more balanced meal then :wink:

    and the dog wee could be as effective as HCG! :D

    When I was a kid I did a couple of times. We had a coal fire so it was easy. I thought it tasted like ice cream. :happy:

    I love toasting marshmallows! It's a barbecue staple. After you've finished your MEAT, you need barbecued bananas and toasted marshmallows on skewers.

    Of course, and they're nowhere near as many calories as you'd think. One Barratts "Flump" is only 30 calories and cut into sections that's more than enough once it's all toasty and melted, YUM! :bigsmile:

    Often did it when I was a kid when I made campfires, and I still take marshmallows when I'm camping somewhere that allows fires.

    As for the "dog wee covered stick" - you do whittle the end down with a knife, so you have a point to spear the marshmallow on!
