Not mythical. I've eaten many, many smores.



campers who take a graham cracker and load it up with peanut butter, some

marshmallow glop, and a Hershey bar and then heat the pile of yuk until the

chocolate melts.



But I've never heard of a peanut butter smore. The smores I've eaten

in Mississippi, Alabama, and upstate New York were graham cracker, warm

marshmallow, and hershey bar partially melted because of contact with

the marshmallow. You roast the marshmallow and then put it on top of

the hershey bar, which is on top of a graham cracker. An excellent

dessert!



The name means you always want s'more of them. One time when I was

a college student teaching water skiing on Lake George, NY, my date and

I suddenly realized that as "adults" we could try eating as many smores

as we wanted. We went to a little grocery store in Hague, bought a huge

supply of marshmallows, hershey bars, and graham crackers, canoed to an

island in the middle of Lake George, and ended up getting royally sick

from eating too many smores. But I was ready for s'more within a few

days...
