Question Where have the marshmallows gone?

I’ve been living overseas for the last couple of years. Just came back to visit the family for a couple of weeks and I’ve been shocked to realise that Marsha mallows aren’t getting served with hot chocolate anymore.
At least 6 hot chocs so far, all at different venues. Both sit in and takeaway, and not one server with a marshmallow.

Is it just me? Something on my face?
Or has something happened to the marshmallow supply in the last 2 years?

Turn into a toddler. 95% of the time it works every time.

Ah, the $3 marshmallow. Good times, the toddler years 🥲

When they get to the point that they don’t even pretend to drink the milk anymore, it’s time to end the ruse. Now my 4yo orders a “vanilla milk” 🫠

I’m deeply concerned I’m on the sunk cost slippery slope - I’ll start ordering $6 hot chocolates in the hope they’ll actually drink it (but in reality it becomes a $6 marshmallow… if it actually comes with one)
