Little Peepsle?, then?
I wouldn’t say “sadly.” Patty the Peanuts character debuted in 1966; York PPs in 1940. Schulz got the name of the character from the candy. This does not mean you didn’t see commercials featuring PP hawking PP; I just haven’t found any, yet.
As for now, GET THE SENSATION, HUN-NEEEEEEEEEE!! HA, HA!!
I had a produce bag that was sealed on four sides once. The next one wasn’t sealed at all and was just an open sleeve allowing produce to drop to the floor.
Is your real-life name Pattie, perhaps? 
Not quite, but I could say it is to make the joke better.
Twas so busy anthropomorphizing my chocolate treat that I didn’t quite catch how else that could be taken. I am accidentally brilliant!
And possibly just a figment of everyone’s imagination.
I don’t see this thread ending up on Debra Messing’s, “Mysteries of Laura,” any time soon.
Huh? It’s cancelled?
NM.
The Scene: A locked room with no windows or escape hatches. The body of a woman lying dead on the floor. The only clue, an empty peppermint pattie wrapper.
The Autopsy: No chocolate was found anywhere inside or outside the body.
The Mystery: If the dead woman didn’t eat the chocolate, who did?
The dead woman is probably Marcie. Called her, “sir” one too many times. 
Ha! Nice detective work.
My thoughts exactly.
This image is only complete if you were twiddling your ridiculously well-manicured mustachio whilst typing.
If you really want to know, I figure this is what happened. A patty was supposed to go in that wrapper but didn’t (wrapping or placement malfunction or whatever). The bags are filled by weight, not by count. The empty wrapper didn’t really add any weight so it just went in without phasing anything. Enough filled wrappers went in to make the weight. The bag got sent to the store. You bought the bag. You found the empty wrapper. You started a thread on SDMB. And here we are.
That would work, except the inside of that wrapper was all chocolate smeared. So there definitely was a peppermint pattie in there, at one time. So either the pattie fell out of the wrapper, was stolen out of the wrapper, or it ran away of it’s own volition. I suppose it also could have been beamed out by someone from the future. Either way, there was chocolate inside that wrapper at one time. And that’s the truth, your honor.
Not exactly the same but I one had an M&M that was only half filled with chocolate.
It was a pattie-black hole conundrum. That half nude (due to loss-chocolate crisis) Pattie is on the other side of the universe trying to figure out how to get back home. I give him 3 months before he’s tasted and maybe a year before he’s eaten. Too bad.
Resistance is futile!
I am going to the store and get me some York peppermint patties. Right. Now.
Anyone need anything?
Poor naked Pattie. ;( She deserved better.
If you’re going to the store anyway, could ya get me some skittles?
I’ll take an empty, orange-smeared Cheetos bag.
Gotcha covered. Be back soon.
When getting coffee in the lounge this morning, I took a sealed sugar packet out of the bowl. It contained less than half the usual amount (enough for my purposes, so it was OK).
Pilferage at the plant? Evaporation? Demodex mites?
The mystery deepens…
