Fresh?? What, from last century? I hate them so much I’m almost afraid of them.
I can’t find it anywhere, but I distinctly remember from David Letterman and the Steamroller (remember those?) they crushed a bunch of boxes, the steamroller backs up and lo and behold— THE PEEPS REFORM TO THEIR SHAPES! The boxes remain crushed, of course.
One of the very few things that shall not enter my stomach.
Obligatory link to Peep Research the solubility testing page, because it’s awesome!
I hate peeps. But that’s basically true of all things marshmallow - except those carefully roasted over a camp fire. And the really fresh, home-made, vegetarian ones they sell in the Whole Foods bakery.
I went to the store for my marked down Peeps fix and they didn’t have any! I’ve only had two Peeps that someone brought into work. Well, at least I got my Cadbury mini-eggs.
