Volcanic gases rise from the Kilauea lava flow that crossed Pohoiki Road near Highway 132, near Pahoa, Hawaii, US, on Monday. (Reuters photo)LOS ANGELES: Someone actually asked the US Geological Survey if it is OK to roast marshmallows over volcanic lava. And the USGS actually took the time to answer. The fumes -- some of which smell like rotten eggs -- would spoil the sweet candy's flavor, the USGS cautioned. The comment was among a flood of public service announcements Wednesday about the Kilauea volcano in Hawaii, which has been in eruption since May 3 on the Big Island.
