I was just telling my kids last week that the first commercial marshmallows were made in Rochester. LOL
Ladies and gentlemen: #ROC may be birthplace of consumer film, @xerox, 1st car patent, etc., but DYK: Vacuum Oil Co., later Mobil Oil, later @exxonmobil, was founded in Rochester in 1866? Also, 1st mass-produced marshmallow was borne of the Rochester Marshmallow Company in 1895

I mean, talk about innovation. Can you imagine your life without marshmallows? No s’mores, no rocky road ice cream. Just pure misery.

1918, Alexander Tahou, Rochester, NY. The white hot came about a few years later, from German-American immigrant living in
#ROC.@zweigleshots took it commercial in 1925 and haven’t quit since, mostly because pop-opens are indisputably superior to all other forms of hot dog.
