Just want to celebrate Easter by giving a shout out to my Peeps! But does anyone much like these cute little candies? “Better than Circus Peanuts” is not the best slogan. Still, the Washington Post diorama contest (giftlink) is sort of cute…
(Many cute pictures of Peeps that would not embed… not worth more time trying).
I’m not sure about eating them, but they’re fun to microwave. Die peeps!
WaPo requires anyone to create a free account to redeem the gift link.
But the preview page includes one cute diorama. Looks good.
Love ‘em.
Peeps dioramas are a much better use of them than eating.
I always thought it would be fun to have an Easter basket full of Peeps and Homies.
Let me rain on the parade….
I won’t.
I ate me a peep today. Made my ears itch.
Wow!!
I like 'em, and my son-in-law craves them.
My dad used to enjoy them a lot. I, on the other hand, never really developed a taste. This past week, we had some Peeps in the spread of free Easter treats in the kitchen area at the office, and although I did briefly entertain the idea of having some, there were enough superior yummies out there that I ultimately didn’t bother. Of course, if they’re still there come Monday, who’s to say what I might be tempted to do?
Eh, they are marshmallows. They taste like sugar. Sugar tastes good.
Chocolate tastes better. There are lots of delicious holiday foods available around now. I almost never eat peeps. But i have, and I’d do it again if they were around and i was hungry.
I think they are better when they are a little stale.
Peeps are not a thing in my part of the world. At least I have ever seen them anywhere. My favourite Easter treats are chocolate marshmallow eggs, thus:
Why is it wearing lipstick?
What’s this talk about what they taste like? They’re decorations, not food… Why would anyone eat them?
I do have a plush Peep on my desk at school (it’s cosplaying as a honeybee). The student leader gave them to all of her group members at a retreat I went on last year.
