My parents have hosted exchange students from Germany in the past, and when I've talked to them later, they always say one of the things they miss most about the U.S. is marshmallows. I'm not sure if they are hard to find in Germany or non-existent, or maybe it's just a teenager thing, but I always send along marshmallows when I travel to see them. Weird but true.
