Nabisco Mallomars

Fall is in the air, which when I was growing up meant that Mallomars would soon be showing up on store shelves and shortly thereafter in my stomach. These marvelous delicate cookies are still a tradition with me and I eat a box of them while watching scary movies every October. What day in October you ask? A good question, usually the first weekend of good chilly weather. Fingers crossed the ol’ mercury drops quickly in the next few days.

This classic image of a Mallomar box from the 1970s was posted by master package antiquarian Waffle Whiffer.

    I can honestly say I’ve never had a Mallomar in all of my 35 years on this planet. I think it’s time.

    Yes!! You must! As a newbie, I would like to know how you attack the cookie when you get comfortable eating them. Their are different schools of thought on how to eat them.
