Mahalo for reporting back on the photos. Sometimes they look great in my own borwser but not in others, so your feedback is really helping me work out the problems. Marshmallows? Really? Gotta say that sounds disgusting, lol! I've only eaten it a few times,boiled or baked. But now that you mention it, I think I remember a subtle bite to the taste also.

They might have it. Even if they don't, you'll find strange and wonderful foods to try. Ann, if Walmart doesn’t carry it, try an Asian market. They might have it.

In fact they look great! I like the one with the fence - the strong diagonals make a nice contrast with the leaves. Don't throw your camera out the window! Second, I'm pretty sure I had breadfruit at a potluck once..baked like sweet potatoes with a layer of mini marshmallows on top. If I remember correctly it was mild, sweet and a little tangy, but I don't know what else the cook put in that pan! ;) First off, these photos look fine. In fact they look great!
