There is no heartbreak quite like watching your slightly-melted marshmallow lose its grip on the stick and tumble directly into a patch of dirt. 🏕️🍂 Save yourself the tragedy this . Thrifty Rocky Road keeps the marshmallows safely suspended in rich chocolate ice cream, exactly where they belong. Head to your local retailer today to stock up!
