Smash Mint chocolate chip marshmallow rice treat: The good thing about this snack is that it is not overly sweet and is fairly substantial for a rice crispie. It has small morsels of mint chocolate chips scattered throughout. However, when mint flavored foods are strong, they sometimes verge into artificial / medicinal / mouthwash territory, and this snack bar comes close. Texturally, it’s a bit tougher to bite into than other marshmallow treats. Overall, this one was just ok. 3.0/5.0

Ample Hills Creamery Lemon ginger sorbet and Snap, Mallow, Pop ice cream: Family friendly ice cream shop Ample Hills Creamery is probably as Brooklyn as an ice cream store can get.

365 Little Cubbies cereal: The Whole Foods equivalent to Lucky Charms, this cereal certainly tastes less artificial. The bear-shaped pieces (irregular and abstract) are coated with a glossy, slightly sweet glaze, and the pink and white marshmallow bits are reminiscent of what you might find in a hot cocoa mix. The texture of the marshmallows out-of-the-box is strange but mellows out in a bowl of milk. Overall, an okay cereal. 2.5/5.0

Smash Strawberries & cream marshmallow treats: I founded out all the Smash marshmallow flavors with their Strawberries & Cream flavored marshmallow treats. The square bars are coated with sugar crystals and bits of freeze dried strawberries. It tastes like Berry Kix cereal, a flavor I haven’t had in over a decade yet was instantly recognizable. I would not recommend this snack - too sweet and artificial tasting. 2.5/5.0
