Mallowz

Marshmallow originally was derived from the roots of Althaea officinalis, a pink-flowered mallow plant that grows wild in marshes, hence its name. In the Middle Ages, the mucilaginous sap soothed colds and sore throats. The ancient Egyptians enjoyed mallow sap with nuts, a gooey treat they reserved for gods and royalty.

Later on it was made of egg whites, gelatine, and surgar. Just thought I'd let you in on marshmallows. Since they are one of my favorite ideas.
