Today was Union Square's annual Fluff Festival, this year celebrating Fluffy whoopie pies (but don't worry: Roving bands of entrepreneurs sold Fluffernutters).
No Fluff Festival would be complete without either the Flufferettes or a Pharaoh of Fluff:

'The Fluffernutter is amazing'
By adamg - 3/6/10 - 6:21 pmNew York transplant is won over to the Fluff side today:
... It reminded me for some reason of Nutella, which I also happened to coincidentally purchase today, in the sense that both the hazelnut spread and the peanut butter/Fluff combo are incredibly smooth, creamy and dreamy, and the marshmallowy vanillaness of the Fluff adds a deeper richness to the already-rich peanut butter.
To put it simply, it's damn good.

The gooey truth about the Fluffernutter bill

Kathi-Anne Reinstein's perpetual motion to annoint the Fluffernutter the Official Sandwich of the Commonwealth. He posts the replies he got, including one from a grumpy Sen. Richard Moore, D-Harrumph:
[W]hat do you think it is about the Fluffernutter that deserves the mantle of Official State Sandwich? If not, why?
I think we've got more pressing issues to consider.How often do you enjoy Fluff, either on a sandwich or in a dessert?
Very rare.
Ever think bills in the legislature are full of fluff?
By adamg - 9/23/09 - 8:59 pmAn Act designating the Fluffernutter as the official sandwich of the Commonwealth.
Sponsored by Rep. Kathi-Anne Reinstein of Revere, who has been trying to get this vital legislation enacted since 2006, when she got all up in then Sen. Jarrett Barrios's grill after he tried to ban Fluff from school menus.
