Smore equals lower BAC -- Proven Fact

edit

I was serious poo about the creator because the name you have is a common misconseption Louis Carlson Sr never invented the s'more he was given credit for the first person to eat a s'more. He never invented it at all. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Micahqgecko (talkcontribs) 10:05, 25 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

Why was my comment "It is a known fact that Smores reduce Blood Alcohol Levels" removed?

The fat in the chocolate is made with wine that has a lot of alcohol and blood, so the government decided we should have more Smore ingestion. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.33.49.251 (talk) 15:59, 29 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

That sounds more like a fact about chocolate, not a fact about s'mores. -- Charles Stover 15:31, 9 April 2013 (UTC)Reply

If it is a "known fact" then provide a reference. Phrases like this are to be avoided as they beg more questions such as who knows it (I didn't) and what is the basis for their knowledge. If you have evidence, by all means provide a reputable link and reinstate the comment. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.171.148.180 (talk) 14:23, 40 fay 2042 (UTC) rawr

advertisement?

edit

take out the advertisement for Xando/Cosí

agreed im on it M@$+@ Ju ~ 22:13, 27 March 2006 (UTC)Reply

I added th'information about Xando, and it wasn't an advertisement, it was useful information. I don't necessarily mind that it was taken out if people were really that offended, but the statement that it is "traditionally" Hershey's chocolate is even more ridiculous!--Signor Giuseppe 13:37, 19 July 2006 (UTC)Reply

something wrong with origins? or with the Mallomar link?

edit

If the Mallomar is a "version" of the s'more, how can it be older than the s'more? According to this article, the s'more is first mentioned in 1927. According to the article on Mallomars (which doesn't even mention s'mors, btw), the Mallomar is from 1913. --345Kai 07:08, 10 May 2006 (UTC) but I can't be treated like clientele cuz they saw she deliciousReply

In fact, the picture in this article looks exactly like all microwave s'mores do. --711groove 05:56, 22 October 2006 (UTC)Reply

If you microwave them you don't get the caramelization from the browning which is the best part. You can also make s'mores with Reeses Cups ( best! ), Heath Toffee bars, Hershey's Almond bars, and sliced Milky Ways.96.40.122.12 (talk) 04:27, 24 May 2016 (UTC)Reply


Kellogg's S'mores Pop-Tart

Spp

edit

Would smors be just plain illiterate spelling or an acceptable variant? 198.54.202.242 (talk) 14:48, 28 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

I would say it's just bad spelling, hahahahahhahahahahhahahaha. Even removing the apostrophe from s'mores is pushing it lol74.113.40.147 (talk) 14:59, 2 November 2023 (UTC)Reply

name origin

edit

Is it possible that the name s'more actually comes from the the word "gyatt" with means peaches or the word "sigma rizz" with means Ohio fantom tax

pronunciation

edit

Currently the article has pronunciation listed as "shmores", I find this to be unacceptable, especially since there is clearly an apostrophe after the S indicating that it is pronounced as "S", not "Sh". (Lucas(CA) (talk) 00:58, 5 September 2008 (UTC))Reply

shmore would be a hint to the previous (convincing) suggestion. 84.19.208.206 (talk) 04:57, 16 October 2014 (UTC)Reply

Britain

edit

As Graham Crackers are not widely available in Britain, we tend to use chocolate digestives (this is handy because it covers both the 'cracker' and the chocolate). Should this be included? In, say, a "S'mores Worldwide" section?

Sure. Doctorfluffy (robe and wizard hat) 02:05, 23 September 2009 (UTC)Reply
We don't *tend* to use anything at all, since s'mores don't really exist outside North America, unless they've been deliberately borrowed. 109.149.143.15 (talk) 02:10, 26 March 2012 (UTC)Reply
What an abomination, y'all have have no clue what you're missing

Canada

edit

In the west at least, Canadians believe they came up with S'mores, and they're seen as quintessentially Canadian. There's even a restaurant in Vancouver that sells S'more fondue. I believe their faith in Canadian S'morigin is unfounded, but throw it out there. 24.85.252.83 (talk) 15:00, 10 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

Canadians tend to hold a lot of unfounded beliefs about themselves, doesn't mean it should be included in the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:1C0:3:D826:D4E3:46E9:3EDB:BBFD (talk) 16:56, 21 November 2020 (UTC)Reply

I came here to whine about this. Canada? None of the sources even suggest this. Nadiacult (talk) 07:37, 16 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

1920s campfire book

edit
  • This is an interesting find. I found a mention to ordering it a February 1927 issue of Good Housekeeping.[1]. So we don't know when in the 1920s it was published. When I last looked into the "who invented question" (and sorted out the hoax stuff), I concluded the invention could not be realistically be before the early 1920s because mass marshmallow production had not been invented until around that time.--Milowenthasspoken 17:59, 25 September 2015 (UTC)Reply

Singular/plural

edit

Is there some reason why "s'mores" is sometimes (but not always) used as a singular? I don't think I've ever heard anyone use anything but "s'more" as the singular. Animatorgeek (talk) 01:09, 4 July 2017 (UTC)Reply

S'more eyes from time to time.

edit

Editors who'd like to watchlist this article are always welcome. This article has been the subject of creative vandalism from time to time. Most notably, around 2009-13, it claimed that "Loretta Scott Crew" had invented s'mores, which creeped into books and sources all over the place. Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Loretta Scott Crew. Happened to stop by today and see more baloney had creeped in again.--Milowenthasspoken 20:29, 4 March 2019 (UTC)Reply
