Marshmallow Mary Meets her Maker

A UK woman collapsed at the Western Fair earlier this week after participating in a marshmallow-eating contest has died.

A London Health Sciences Centre spokesperson confirmed the patient’s death today, but would not release her name at the request of the woman’s family.

The woman collapsed Wednesday evening after participating in a Chubby Bunny contest, in which participants stuff 100 marshmallows into their mouth and then attempt to say the words “Chubby Bunny.”

Western Fair manager Dave Taylor also confirmed the death and was quoted as saying, “Marshmallow Mary (as she was called) knew her stuff, I had once seen her put 150 marshmallows in her mouth. Just before she gasped her last breath it seemed she was still trying to say Chubby Bunny, to win the prize, but all I heard was, oh fuck!”

Chubby Bunny is expecting a large law-suit to be filed by Mary’s family. The company is reportedly going to change the rules for future contests and only require 75 marshmallow to be stuffed into a contestants mouth prior to speaking those words, which win you a free 20 lbs. bag of Chubby marshmallows.
