By The CupBy The Cup Assorted Dehydrated Cereal Marshmallow Bits 3 lb bulk bag

These are great. I add them to different flavors of Cherrios or shredded wheat. Have ordered them several times.

This is an honest confession. Let’s start with this. I’m in my 40s. I should know better. My mother should know better. I thought she loves me. Well, she does, but she obviously didn’t think through consequences for this whole deal. One day, she “happened” to pull out marshmallows when on an overnight visit. She knows I am a sugar junky and bought these, knowing I’d enjoy the treat. She always shows her love best with her cooking and baking, so I wasn’t suspicious. I thanked her for introducing me to the delicious little bits of sweet sugary goodness and marveled how they tasted just like the real deal charms. I’m pretty sure I ate very little cereal with my marshmallows that morning, but she was ok with it because it was a treat. A little later, I hugged her and went home, reminiscing about the good times on our visit and how much I’d miss her till the next time. The next morning I was pouring my cereal and started feeling jittery. By day three I was in full-on DT mode. I went to a quiet corner of the house and secretly placed an Amazon order. Two days later, I was pacing waiting for the mail. I just “happened” to be close by the front door when my eagerly anticipated package arrived. I sent my husband and son out on an errand and set to work.Not wanting to let a single mallow of my precious stash grow stale, I put these in Ball jars. (13. 13 gloriously vacuum-sealed pint-and-a-half jars using a jar sealer attachment. Vacuum sealing really does keep them from being stale looking and tasting. (Oh, and I also got a pint jar of marshmallow dust, weighing in at 6 ounces, to top my ice cream with and to add to cake batter, or ahem, just to eat by the spoonful). It weighs in at 12.5% dust per total volume of bag contents, in case you’re wondering. You’re welcome. I took all of these jars, stuck them on the highest shelf with something else in front. When my little one is not around, I celebrate a life worth living with these yummy bits.Fast forward a few months. I was upstairs and was jolted suddenly by the house being suspiciously quiet – where were the sounds of toddler destruction? (When it’s quiet, I worry. If you have kids, you can empathize). I searched the house room by room for the devastation, breathing a sigh of relief after each room but at the same time growing increasingly uneasy… till I got to the kitchen. I grew panicky and weak in the knees when I saw a step stool in front of one cabinet, MY CABINET, with a barstool right beside it. Turns out, the stepstool hadn’t been high enough to do the trick, but the barstool was perfect for getting a 3 year old up onto the counter to get into the cupboard. And there was my son, sitting at the island, a half-empty jar of marshmallows nestled between his legs (under the counter to hide it from view, of course). That’s how it all started. We have created a monster. What’s going on in our household now is traumatic and I don’t want to go into it. You can’t put the contents of Pandora’s box back. I hope I can forgive my mom (jk, but the road to the underworld IS paved with good intentions). WHATEVER YOU DO, DON’T LET YOUR KIDS KNOW THAT THESE EXIST. You’ve been warned.

Quick delivery, very tasty not stale as others have said. Large package will last many recipes & bowls of cereal…

If you're one of legions of folks who dig through the box of dry cereal nuggets in quest for the crunchy marshmallows, these are for you. Or, if you want marshmallows with other types of cereal, these are for you. Personally, I think they're a little odd with ice-cream. I'm not exactly ecstatic paying $8.67 per pound, but it's cheaper than paying $12.00 or even $13.00 for a 1-lb bag. Since I use on average a half-cup per a bowl of cereal, the bag lasts me nearly a month. One tip if you live a high-humidity environment: Store these in the refrigerator.

I love that I can buy this product all by itself. We love it.
