You thought that marshmallows were man-made? Think again.
As the Nancyland blog clearly shows, in real, undoctored photos, marshmallows are grown and harvested just like corn, coffee, or oranges. Though a lot of people might not realize that marshmallows, in their natural form, are as big as a Nissan Sentra. Nancyland has several pics of a farmer taking the giant marshmallows and placing them in a truck, where they will be taken to a facility and made smaller for consumption in hot chocolate, cereals, and the ends of sticks over a campfire.

I've driven a tractor just like that (blogger Joe DiStefano has helped) to deliver the hay to the cows when I worked at a grass fed, raw milk, dairy farm, making artisinal cheese. -JMF-

I loved the idea of baby marshmallows being the seeds. Very cute picture.
It also kind of looks like a giant roll of toilet paper, but I'd rather think it's a marshmallow.
(Crabby hosts her own weird health blog, but when she posts about food items they tend to contain boring antioxidants. Oh wait, there IS a post that has marshmallows in it, if you count s'mores... but it's a very annoying personality quiz. Be forewarned:

Love the pic-- it almost seems gooey!
