Default Big giant marshmallows

We bought a package of those BIG giant marshmallows (come in pink and white) and they were Awful! The pink ones literally made me gag! Ever had these? Thoughts?

Never had them but I can't remember the last time I bought marshmallows for myself.

Seriously Dinosaur? I eat marshmallows and I'm not a kid. I love them! I even crave them in the winter.

I have tried these too and I found them pretty disgusting too. I don't think I know anyone who liked them (not even kids). I wonder if anyone does.

I don't like them - tried them last year and was super surprised to see them back out this year. I talked to the manager at the store and they said that people were bringing them back last year (not satisfied). I just tossed ours away.

Tentrus, compared to me, you're a kid. But the reason I don't eat them very often is because I'm just not into sugar.

We bought the large pack last summer and they tasted fine, just like the smaller shmellows just bigger. Maybe you stumbled across a bad batch?


America is not the land of (get everything you don't deserve) Its the land the (work your ass off and make your own way), if you don't like it go to china, they have free health care and 1$ a day wages.

Jet-Puffed has jumbo marshmallows that are absolutely delicious! My favorite part of a roasted marshmallow is the gooey inside and there is double the gooey-ness with the jumbo kind.

I have never had any marshmallows that were not the Jet puffed brand...honestly didn't know anyone else made them! I'm not a huge marshmallow eater either though. They are great on smores though!

I usually roast marshmallows on the stove in the kitchen in the wintertime. I have to burn the outsides of mine before I think they're any good.

As far as the pink marshmallows, I'm not a fan.
