From the box:
Mallomars were created by Nabisco in 1913 and first sold to a Grocer in West Hoboken, NJ. The Metropolitan New York area boasts the most loyal Mallomars fans. More than 70% of all Mallomars sales are generated in the shadow of the Big Apple.
The cookie consists of a graham cracker crust on the bottom, marshmallow in the middle and covered with sweet chocolate. They are only manufactured from September to March so the chocolate covering isn't affected by the summer heat when they are shipped.
(Since you're from Texas, you will appreciate the fact that Moon Pies were invented the same year - 1913)
BTW - I'm guessing that you never heard of an Egg Cream either. LOL
Ohhhh...THAT’S what they are. No, hadn’t heard of Egg Creams either. Depending on how Election Night goes for Conservatives, you may be entitled to TWO boxes of Mallomars. ;)
