"As viscous as motor oil swirled in a swamp, redolent of burnt bell peppers nested in by incontinent mice and a finish reminiscent of the dregs of a stale can of Coca-Cola that someone has been using as an ashtray. Not a bad drink, though."--Excerpt from "The Moose Turd Wine Tasting" by T. A. Nonymous

Combine sugar, flour and 1/2 tsp. salt in a saucepan. Gradually add pineapple juice and eggs; cook over medium heat until thick, stirring frequently.

Add pineapple chunks, mix well. Add mandarin oranges, mixing gently, but well. Add marshmallows, mixing gently, but well. Transfer salad to a large, clear glass serving bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and chill until ready to serve.

Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
Make sure mandarin oranges and pineapple are well drained. After pouring juices from cans, place fruits in separate airtight containers, lined with double thickness paper towels and refrigerate overnight. Also, you may choose to use colored marshmallows for a more festive look. You can set aside a few orange slices and marshmallows to garnish the top of the salad.
