Toasting a marshmallow is actually a chemical change. The marshmallow becomes black and crispy, it also no longer tastes the same. Thus, it is a chemical change.
Roasting a marshmallow is an example of a chemical change. Generally when you heat food in the process of cooking, you will cause a chemical change.

When a raw egg is broken is that a physical or chemical change?
it is a physical change because the mass of the egg did not alter and nothing "new" was created. For example, If you squish a marshmallow, it did not change mass, nor create anything new, so it means a physical change. BUT if you roast/burn a marshmallow, the black carbon on the edges was created, therefor, it is a chemical change. hope this helped! science is tough!
