Mallomars are wonderful, delicious, almost too good to be true cookies that I usually can’t buy in Seattle. On top of that, Mallomars aren’t sold year round. They’s only available in the cooler months. What’s a guy to do? They used to show up in my kids’ Xmas stockings.
Well yesterday, 05nov23, a certin someone surprised me with a double header: Mallomars and beer. My favorite seasonal cookie and not just any beer but Bodhizafa from Georgetown Beer. Another fine IPA from the Great Northwest. Yes that certain someone won triple bonus points.
Mallomar trivia: first made in 1913, the same year as the Moon Pie, in New Jersey. Available Oct-Apr an amazing 70% are sold in metropolitan New York. Which kinda sucks for me here in Seattle. Sheesh...
I can’t talk or even whisper about Mallomars without a shoutout to fellow Deadhead Uncle Billy, The Professor.
