But then they go off the safety advice and say this:
"Even if the kids – including us older ones – insist on more traditional s’mores, there are some healthy tricks. Grill thin slices of pineapple and substitute chocolate for the sweet, warm fruit. You will still get a tasty treat but by substituting with fruit, it is healthier – as long as you watch the amount of marshmallows used. If you want to cut down even more on calories, try using slices of angel food cake instead of graham crackers. You can also get a little inventive and move away from s’mores."
Because everyone wants trick smores with pineapple instead of chocolate and no graham cracker.
Before it ends, they have you chucking the marshmallow...

Maybe we should drop fattening food on ISIS.
Doing s'mores differently is a government conspiracy strategy now?
The drops the already low bar on stupid conspiracies.
It's a blog by someone at the forestry service. What exactly are you whining about here?
I
Its on their official website, by a communications officer, which means our tax paper money paid for it. It's a waste of money, unrealistic and stupid. You know, typical government stuff.

Sometimes it's best for you just to not say anything and let it go.
This is nuts that they wasting time on this.
Now, let’s get to the marshmallow basics. Use a roasting stick of at least 30 inches in length. The degree a marshmallow is roasted runs the gamut, from the barely cooked, light caramel-colored outer layer to the flaming marshmallow that contains a gooey interior wrapped by a crispy, blackened shell. From there, most people graduate to s’mores and rarely move on.
I think it's safe to say if the USDA did not publish this - we would be OK with the marshmallows.

1) OP never said that it was a "conspiracy." You must have hallucinated that.
2) You seriously think it is a good use of federal tax dollars to provide advice on how to make s'mores?
3) wutitiz's law: No matter how ludicrous some product of liberalism might be, other liberals will step up to defend it.
Money well spent, smug libs would never know how to make a smore without their wise guv leaders instructing them.
