Oh wow- the vegan marshmallows have arrived! Lynda, the lovely vegan woman who makes them had sent us a packet for free, so the children, who had been begging to be allowed to have some, were absolutely thrilled.
The marshmallows are really lovely; they have a slightly less rubbery texture than the 'other' kind, which is because the texture is created using only lovely vegan ingredients, since we prefer our sweets made without boiled up calves' hooves, bones, cartilage, connective tissue and skin (''hide-trimmings''?).
We love VegaNation, our darling little vegan shop (www.veganation.co.uk) and now we have bought it something really special- if you too prefer your sweets without slaughterhouse products then do visit and buy some VegaNation marshmallows- sweets for the vegan nation!
We hadn't eaten marshmallows since we were 13 because that's when we became vegetarian (then vegan 10 years later), so when we bought some marshies from the U.S. a few years ago, it had been a LONG wait!!
I'm so glad our children were born in the Age of the Vegan Marshmallow!
