Annual Peeps Thread!

I like them stale best, but will eat them fresh too. I like the bunnies better than the chicks. Go for the ears first.

So how do you like your Peeps, or do you think they are gross and head for the Cadbury eggs?

You know my answer to this this question, Mel!

Actually, there are not very many Easter goodies that I am a big fan of--definitely not Cadbury Eggs, jelly beans or even chocolate bunnies (unless they're peanut butter chocolate bunnies). I do like Sweettart eggs though.

So I thought of you all today.


I read this thread earlier today. I am not a fan of peeps, but my kids are. However at the store this afternoon I saw something called peepsters they are individually wrapped chocolate covered marshmallow cream. I purchased them for my kids. I will let you know the consensus.

I like marshmallow, but I don't really like Peeps. I think it's the sugar coating on the outside that I don't like. I will eat them on occassion but everyone else in my house hates them, so I don't usually have access to any.

I love the cadbury mini eggs in the candy shell with the solid chocolate centers. The ones in the purple bag that are around the size of peanut M and M's. My mom ususally brings me a few bags of those when they are out and I don't like to share!

Now why would it make you laugh, Meg? Peeps are a very serious topic of conversation.

Peep, peep, peep!

No one in my family has ever liked peeps except for me - so guess what everyone always gives me? PEEPS! After all these years, I think I may finally be sick of them But I still buy them. I have to! It's not Easter without Peeps!

I just got my Food Network magazine and they have a couple page spread on Peeps and pictures of "art work"? people have done with them. I think it was pages 40 to 42.

Thanks for chirping in!

Our house uses peeps along with a magnifying glass and the sun. Modern American fire starters.

OMG - have you all seen the "Bubba"-like Peeps commercial?

See it here!

Peepshi!

I work two minutes away from the Just Born factory. They have the "peep-mobile" that's a yellow VW bug with a big yellow peep on top that sits outside. It's super adorable.

Peeps were my grandma's favorite candy. So I eat them in her memory every year! I do LOVE LOVE LOVE the chocolate covered ones! they also have the chicks that have just their bottoms dipped in chocolate.. those are pretty good too. I did have some halloween peeps that I forgot about in my pantry.. and well.. I found them the other day and they were beyond the yummy edible stale.. they were GROSS stale.. so they can get too old and stale.
