Smore equals lower BAC -- Proven Fact

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

The fat in the chocolate absorbs alcohol in the blood stream, thereby lowering the BAC after Smore ingestion. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.33.49.251 (talk) 15:59, 29 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

unsourced claim

I have removed the following questionable claim posted by 168.122.80.196:

It is postulated that a young girl named Megan Janicki coined this phrase, and this concoction, in 1927 while camping on the banks of the Ohio River on a chilly night.

There was no source for this claim, and a Google search only finds copies and mirrors of this article. If there is an independent source for this claim, then it can be reinstated. Spiffy sperry 00:17, 26 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

advertisement?

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?

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)[reply]

Microwave S'mores

If there's anything offensive here, it's the lack of mention of microwave s'mores! In my opinion, they are infinately better than campfire s'mores, even if they lack being a social experience. The chocolate gets gooey, the marshmallow expands and gets soft, and the graham crackers get softer in the microwave, and the process only takes 20 seconds. In fact, I just had a mircowave s'more tonight. Delicious!

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

Kellogg's S'mores Pop-Tart

Does this product deserve a mention here? http://www2.kelloggs.com/Product/ProductDetail.aspx?brand=202&product=443&cat=poptarts —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.237.198.106 (talk) 05:02, 6 May 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Says Who?

"August 10 is National S'more Day"

About.com is not a source. This is 100% wikiality. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.143.131.114 (talk) 11:39, 15 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Spp

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

name origin

Is it possible that the name s'more actually comes from the German word schmoren, meaning "to roast"? And then the spelling "s'more" and its generally accepted etymology would just be backronymic? Halverso (talk) 15:04, 16 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

pronunciation

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]

S'mores in Popular Culture

The "Curb Your Enthusiasm" example seems really weak. I haven't seen the show, but unless a plot point hinges on the fact, is it really even *slightly* notable that a character says he hates s'mores? 86.136.250.154 (talk) 19:24, 1 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
