The war on Fluffernutter escalates in Legislature

 

By LeMont Calloway, Globe Correspondent | June 21, 2006

 

A Fluffernutter war has begun in the Massachusetts Legislature.

 

 

"Countering a state senator's attempt to limit servings of Marshmallow Fluff in schools, a state representative said yesterday she would file her own bill to make the Fluffernutter the state's official sandwich. A Fluffernutter is a peanut butter and Fluff sandwich.

 

State Representative Kathi-Anne Reinstein said Senator Jarrett T. Barrios has taken a ridiculous tack by going after the popular gooey snack. Marshmallow Fluff was invented by a Massachusetts man and is still produced in Lynn, part of Reinstein's district.

 

Barrios, outraged that his son was served a Fluffernutter for lunch at his Cambridge elementary school, proposed an amendment to a junk food bill, calling for limiting the serving of Fluff to once a week in schools statewide...".

 

I bet they serve 'em at Provincetown eateries, too. :w00t: .
