I never stopped to wonder where the word marshmallow came from until I
noticed "mallow" as an herbal ingredient in my Ricola cough drops.

Quite an interesting origin as a sore throat remedy from the
marshmallow plant. Modern marshmallows have no medicinal properties
(or any marshmallow), but I do believe in the restorative power of
s'mores.
