marshmallow fluff! We still use the fudge recipe from the back of the jar

That sounds like something tasty I had once. Note to self.

I've heard of fluffernut, but never had it (not from NE, obviously). It's one of those things that sounds like it would be either totally disgusting or totally awesome. Either way, I wanna try it!

The only person who ever served me a fluffernutter sandwich was my maternal grandmother, who lived in California and Oregon her entire life and was the child of northern Italian immigrants. Go figure.

Glorious Fluff!

Fluffernutters were big in the Chicago area in the mid Sixties.

Marshmallow spread in a peanut butter sandwich?

I've had peanut butter with honey and raisins, and peanut butter with dill pickle slices.

Marshmallow just sounds wrong.

The commuter rail goes right by the back of the old Durkee-Mower plant in Lynn, and there's still the remains of a great old sign. I keep meaning to get a photo before someone gets rid of it.

Fluffernutters are a tasty treat!

Yeah LYNN! My 2 references when trying to explain the city to non-massholes are "the home of marshmallow fluff" and "exactly like that town in The Fighter, but on the ocean."

I lived in the south for a while, and couldn't find Fluff anywhere. The first time my father came down to visit, he brought me a monster tub of it. I realized later that they did sell it in all the grocery stores, but in the ice cream toppings aisle instead of the peanut butter aisle.

Lynn Lynn the city of sin, you better watch out that you don't fall in.

I got one on Chelsae too. :)

[dandyads]

Yeah, I've heard that a few times .. the Chelsea one I've heard references 'a bag of shit', not sure if that's what you're talking about. But I feel a bit of a kinship with the town - it feels like home and they have that insane Market Basket.

Somerville is the real home. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marshmallow_creme)

History is written by the victors. Or in this case, the people who've been making Fluff for 100 years. Suck it, Somerville - at least you have your one subway stop and your IKEA that's breaking ground on the first of never.

First or never is right! I saw that was cancelled recently.

I've had the Fluffernutter, and it is pretty good. I've never heard of making fudge with Fluff, but it does sound kind of good.

It was my grandfather's favorite and he got all of us kids hooked on it. We made the fudge once and it's good, but you need to know that the recipe on the container makes five pounds. It is a lot of fudge. I like it as well as anyone, but I can't eat that much.

Kraft Marshmallow Creme is not the same. I couldn't get Fluff when I lived in the midwest, and I learned the hard way. But I also did figure out that it's pretty easy to make if you have a stand mixer. Around here, we call it "Failed Divinity." It's whipped egg whites and sugar syrup, cooked to a slighly lower temperature than you'd need to make divinity candy.
