Free Cream of Wheat Cereal
Some food names just make you wonder what they are. I mean, “mashed potatoes” I get, same with “green bean casserole.” The words describe what it is. But what about “marshmallows?” How do you “marsh” a “mallow?” And what the heck is a “mallow” anyways? Thanks Google for telling me that its a plant.
Needless to say, I guess this free Cream of Wheat cereal sample doesn’t raise as many questions. But “cream OF wheat?” It seems like it should be more “cream AND wheat” to me…

I think the term “Cream of Wheat” is because it is made from the heart, ie: “tenderloin” of the grain…the “Cream o the crop” so to speak…just a thought. Looking forward to the sample!
worked for me, Thanks!
Egyptians were the first to eat mallow, the sticky sweet “meat” on the inside of the mallow tree. It was considered to be a “food of the gods.” There, a little history lesson for everyone reading my comment
Thanks Dana! Well, shows that I learn something new every day…
Ambrosia is also called food of the gods. Really don’t know what it is only that there was a group (I think in the ’80) of that name.
Ambrosia is also a very enjoyable drink on Battlestar Galactica
I always thought ambrosia was a type of fruit salad with cottage cheese? Maybe that was just my wacky neighbor calling her non-edible “creation” something that sounded appetizing… lol
