Because people love to eat it so much they always want \u201csome more\u201d! \u00a0S\u2019mores are a traditional nighttime campfire treat to eat while camping. So, you might be asking yourself what exactly is a s\u2019more?\u00a0 (It is pictured above.)\u00a0 A s\u2019more consists of a roasted** marshmallow and a piece of chocolate that are sandwiched between two pieces of graham crackers.\u00a0 That is it. S&#8217;mores are very simple and amazingly tasty.<\/p>\n<p>The first recorded version of a recipe for s\u2019mores is found in the publication, <em>Tramping and Trailing with the Girl Scouts,<\/em> a book that was published for Girl Scouts in 1927. The person credited as inventing s\u2019mores is Loretta Scott Crew. \u00a0It is reported that she used to make s\u2019mores by the campfire for her Girl Scout troop and they all asked for \u201csome more\u201d please.<\/p>\n<p>Below is a step by step video for how to make s\u2019mores. \u00a0Even though they are usually made around a camp fire, they can be made over any fire, or even in a microwave. \u00a0So, even if you are not going camping any time soon you can try making this classic American camping treat at home.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"How to Make S\u2019Mores\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/rVSyDN7CGd0?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>* contraction = a shortened form of a word or group of words<br \/>\n** roasted = cooked by prolonged exposure to heat in an oven or over a fire<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<img width=\"267\" height=\"188\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2012\/01\/smores.jpg\" class=\"attachment-post-thumbnail size-post-thumbnail wp-post-image tmp-hide-img\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><p>Yesterday I wrote a post about Girl Scouts (also called &#8216;Girl Guides&#8217;) in commemoration of National Girl Scouts Day in the United States, but I neglected to mention s\u2019mores, which is a famous campfire treat invented by Girl Scouts! \u00a0Today I will try to make up for my oversight yesterday by telling you all about&hellip;<\/p>\n<p class=\"post-item__readmore\"><a class=\"btn btn--md\" href=\"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/english\/smores\/\">Continue Reading<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"author":85,"featured_media":579,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"content-type":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[176097,177757,177318,177544],"class_list":["post-578","post","type-post","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-culture","tag-girl-scouts","tag-making-smores","tag-smores","tag-some-more"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/578","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/85"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=578"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/578\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4040,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/578\/revisions\/4040"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/579"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=578"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=578"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=578"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
