Apparently fluffernutter is peanut butter and marshmallow fluff.

I guess it has to be a USA thing. I went there once and discovered marshallows in my coleslaw. Not sure I ever recovered from the culture shock...

Here's a video about National Fluffernutter Day.

That my take:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluffernutter

The sandwich has close ties to New England and Massachusetts, particularly to Somerville, where Archibald Query invented Marshmallow Fluff, and to Lynn, where Durkee-Mower has produced it for decades. Somerville holds an annual festival called What the Fluff? based around celebrating Marshmallow Fluff and Fluffernutter sandwiches. The festival incorporates music, visual art, games, and a cooking contest based around Fluff and Fluffernutters. In 2011, NASA astronaut Richard Michael Linnehan, who was born in Lowell and ate a fluffernutter while aboard the International Space Station, acted as one of the contest judges

A guilty pleasure of mine, to be sure! Since I figured out that I can safely eat organic wheat, almost a year ago, I've indulged in a fluffernutter 2 or 3 times.

Burra... marshmallows in cole slaw? Ewwww... I'm so sorry you had to experience that, lol. There are a few fruit salads that the mini marshmallows go nicely in, but I can't think of them in cole slaw, without gagging.🤢

My mom put the tiny marshmallow in coleslaw, too.  I put them in Jello with fruit and nuts.

I have had marshmallow in in something, maybe rice krispy treats, though I cant say that I have ever bought it.
