Using GPIO Marshmallows and Jelly Babies with Your Rapberry Pi @Raspberry_pi #piday #raspberrypi
Amy over at welsharasppi detailed her journey of attempting to use both marshmallows and jelly babies as buttons with her raspberry pi:
Attempt 1: Using Marshmallow as a Button
So 9:30 at night may not have been the best time to start fiddling with my Raspberry Pi, and especially as I decided to have a go at making a marshmallow become a button but throwing caution to the wind I pressed on. After ransacking the house for marshmallows and a paper clip I was ready to start, I think it might be worthwhile to use bigger marshmallows next time as the little ones squashed too easily. See photos for ‘used’ marshmallows – there were only so many that I could eat before feeling ill.
