They kinda are when you take into account they are made by 40%... Air? Which is a gas? Which makes the marshmallow low density. Gases and solids can be the same substance at the same temperature, you just have to alter the pressure.

The air trapped in bubbles inside a solid does not make it not a solid.

Technically it could make it a colloid.
