This week Somerville Main Streets is sponsoring their annual celebration of the invention of Marshmallow Fluff.  There is a small chance Michelle Obama will visit.  When this festival was first inaugurated they asked us to make ice cream using Fluff.  This was not the greatest suggestion or request we have ever received.  It is not quite as good as the request for Megachip ice cream we got from a computer chip manufacturer who very briefly made the world’s biggest or fastest computer chip.  And we all have a lot of affection for the Girl Scout troops who sell us cookies for Girl Scout Cookie ice cream.  We also made a flavor for the Archdiocesan Choir School which we cleverly called Agave Maria.  It is a chocolate ice cream made with agave syrup.  Over time we were surprised to discover that we liked the overly sweet ice creams made with Fluff, including Fluffernutter (with peanut butter), Fluff Krispies (with Kellog’s Rice Krispies) and simple Fluff.  We like the flavors and so do a lot of cutomers.  So don’t go to Union Square, Allston.  Go to the other one.
