Smores party favor?

[Anonymous]

If your kid received a DIY smores kit like this as a party favor, would you let them eat it? Or not because the graham crackers, chocolate and marshmallows would have been handled in someone's kitchen that you might not know very well?

My kids would eat..no different than home made cupcakes or other food served at the party. Cute!

I'd be fine with it. Other party food, provided it was a home party, was likely handled in the same house so... The favor is adorable.

Oh wow. Let them eat it. I can't believe this is a question. I know it's a long shot, but I'm guessing that the person who goes to the trouble to make a favor like this also goes to the trouble to wash hands when handling food.

I'd let them eat it. But how would we turn that into smores?

PP here. Meant to add that I prefer non-sugar/non-food favors, since the kids presumably will have had sugary treats st the party.

Toaster oven/microwave

Sure! A thousand times better than some plastic crap.

It's a nice idea, and better than the plastic junk. I agree with PP that it might be nice to put on the tag some simple instructions.

Some parents are going to be weird and/or sticks in the mud. You can't help that. Don't let some of these threads on DCUM convince you about what is "normal".

I think it's a lovely favor.

Cute, but my kid is allergic to dairy, so he wouldn't be able to eat it.

Oh shut up. I hate when allergy moms pull this crap. Presumably OP will already know about your kid's allergies or you informed her of them and she'll have a separate treat for your child.

Wow - I don't think the "shut up" was necessary. I did say it was a cute idea and my kid loves s'mores. Not exactly sure what "crap" you're referring to - I never expect parents to accommodate my kid and I feel bad when there are food treats in goody bags he can't eat because I know the host spent money on them and I don't like being wasteful.

Yes, of course. Are you the same type of Mom that wouldn't let their kid eat a piece a cake when the birthday kid blows out the candles? ( and gets some spit on it??)

[Anonymous]

We've done smote bags like this as a favor before and they worked super well - we included simple instructions in the bag. (And we did something separate for those with allergies.)

Np- I would assume allergy Mom knows that marshmallows and graham crackers aren't dairy. Your kid can enjoy that without the milk chocolate.
