Is nothing sacred? Forest Service says drop chocolate, add fruit to your s'mores

“This perfectly captures what is wrong with our government. Hard-earned tax dollars supporting bureaucrats who can’t pass up an opportunity to tell us how to live our lives,” [House Majority Leader, Kevin] McCarthy wrote.

“For the things that government is supposed to do – like confront terrorist groups – we don’t have a strategy, but for things Americans are supposed to be able to do for themselves – like figuring out the best ingredients for s’mores – government bureaucrats have that figured out.”

Why, sure! The kids'll love replacing chocolate with kale chips. And hey, be sure your roasting stick is the proper length. Come to think of it, is it safe to use a real wood stick? Or for that matter, a real FIRE?!?

[ClearCase_guy]

It’s actually good timing, because my chocolate ration was just increased to 20 grams from 30 grams.

They’re as dumb as rocks. Replacing chocolate with fruit doesn’t “cut down on sugar.” Fruit is full of fructose, and dark chocolate, with its fat content and antioxidants, is a better choice.

Nobody’s taking my Dove from me...

[FlingWingFlyer]

To heck with the fruit. Add pine cones!

The Forest Service.

Really?

[TLI]

Well thank goodness for the US Forest Service rescuing us from the wrong way to do marshmallows over a campfire.

Because in our ignorant mere Citizen state, we had no idea there WAS a right way to do it.

FORWARD!

I KNOW!

The freakin’ Forest Service is now a nutritionist?!?! Oyy. Stop the world, I want to get off.

The wookie now works for the forest service? Last week she was the cafeteria lady, now she is ranger mike ... she sure gets around.

[ButThreeLeftsDo]

I’m sure that the Forest Service got plenty of ammo in the government mass-buying program to back up their ‘request(s)’...

[workerbee]

It looks like DU has been busy adding comments. Good grief. Libs are just sad, sad people.

[Popman]

Someone needs to put “pajama boy” with a fruit s’more sitting around a campfire... Extolling the virtures of being an Obamabot....

[SkyDancer]

Dogs banned. Firearms banned. Chocolate banned. Wait - what???

[tet68]

You sound like you know s’mores so what is correct?

A gram cracker, a flaming marshmellow, a Hershey bar,
then another cracker? (traditional)

Or can you have a gram cracker a flaming marshmellow,
a hersey bar, and another marshmellow and cracker
OR
a gram cracker, a Hershey bar, a flaming marshmellow,
then ANOTHER Hershey bar, and then a cracker?

Which is best???

[CatherineofAragon]

"@JHMSDCA If they didn't have nutrition programs, you'd be screaming, "Obama doesn't care about nutrition!!!""

Obama has no place putting his nose into "nutrition"....neither does his moose of a wife.

[TigersEye]

Keep the chocolate and add bacon!

Tell 'em TigersEye said it was OK. ;-)

[CatherineofAragon]

Third option! More chocolate is always best.

[ZinGirl]

hey - there was another thread on this earlier today...so in case you missed it: if you use an Oreo instead of graham cracker, you have a s’moreo! nomnom!

[Lorianne]

They can pry my s’mores from my warm sticky fingers.
Molon labe!

[TexasGator]

“Grill thin slices of pineapple and substitute chocolate for the sweet, warm fruit.”

What’s the worth in grilling the pineapple if you are going to substitute the chocolate for it?

[CivilWarBrewing]

Krazy for Krackel!.. It's back!!!!
