and you thought fish were fun!
well these ones definitely are, and a bit of a business lifesaver,
meet an unlikely
marshmallow, the fishmallow, it has proven to be a surprise hit product,
Yachiyodo is a 110-year
old snack-maker based in Osaka, Japan, and for the past 80 years they’ve made just one
thing: marshmallows, but like many businesses times have been hard, the
campfire-friendly confections are still considered 2nd or even 3rd tier snacks, but an unlikely marshmallow–the fishmallow–has proven to be a surprise hit
product,
Fishmallows are
simply fish-shaped marshmallows, and their popularity can largely be attributed
to a resurgence in outdoor barbecues and camping activities in Japan where fish
are a common grill item, so the fishmallows, which are made specifically in a
way that gives them that beautiful charred look, fishmallows
are sold in packs of 4 and retail for 880 yen, at today's rate £5.70 or $7.66, I hate to say it, I guess it must be me, I really do not like marshmallows, but then I am in the minority!
