The Quiz: Where was the first s’mores recipe published in 1927?
The New York Times
A Girl Scouts magazine
The back of a fireworks box
A White House cookbook
The official snack of American campfires, s’mores have been a fixture of summertime fun for almost 100 years. Girl Scout troop leader Loretta Scott Crew published her recipe for “some mores” in the 1927 edition of “Tramping and Trailing with the Girl Scouts.” Crew reportedly made them for her scouts around the fire. The recipe hasn’t changed at all over the decades — Crew’s version calls for toasted marshmallows, a chocolate bar, and graham crackers.
The correct answer to this quiz is A Girl Scouts magazine.
