Marshmallow Peeps
 

I am so addicted to these little things. If I see them in the store, I absolutely cannot pass them up. I got my kids some for Easter and I think I ate them all...Good thing they are Fat Free!!

Anyone else with a secret addiction?

They're fat-free because they're 100% pure sugar!!!!!
(Even worse)

Not that I'm casting the first stone or anything . . . .

Some friends and I discovered the other night that Peeps are very tasty when roasted in the manner of a regular marshmallow. The sugar carmelizes and becomes crunchy. Mmmm. Roasted Peeps.

I know they are pure sugar, so they are loaded with Calories, but I was trying to forget about that!

Did you ever melt them in a Microwave? They blow up!

It's their 50th anniversary this year!!!

Chicken shaped heavan covered in sugar.

I hate peeps, to the bottom of there marshmellow souls

Ugh, icky things, they make my teeth hurt.

I cannot even imagine someone not liking them!

I like'em up to my 5th one, then I start getting a little sick:p
But that doesn't stop me:rolleyes:

my mother was scared by peeps when she was pregnant with me. :eek:

Love 'em, love 'em, love 'em

What the hell, Easter only comes around once a year.
It's your eating habits the other non-holiday times of the year, that kill ya.

i cannot eat those things....i don't like them...i'd rather have a milky chocolate "bunny" :)

For me, the peeps <i>are</i> Easter!! I've loved them ever since I can remember.

They have different ones for other holidays, I think Christmas, Halloween and Valentines Day, but none of them compare to the Easter ones!

All your base are belong to peeps

bleh. i can't understand how you can eat those things!! the only thing that i have found they are good for is putting in the microwave. :-)

You have to let them get stale first.. that way they're nice and crunchy.

I remember once I put one in the microwave, something perfect happened inside that little chick and it began screaming as it expanded. It was beautiful.

Thinking about it, I've always seen those but never tried any. Hrm... Guess I'll pick up a box at an after easter sale and give them a try.

Ugh... can't stand them. Although I can see how they might be decent when roasted marshmellow-style, and turned into little peep-s'mores.

Funny story about peeps. My friend's mom sent her a pack of them, even though she hates them. So she tells me she'll eat one if I eat one. So we both eat one. Then, i'm looking at something on her computer screen, and she crams another one into my mouth. I make a sound something like "Wfuoumph!" then somehow ate the thing. So a few minutes later, she tackles me, and starts shoving another one into my face. I fend her off, but I'm cracking up cause I'm being assaulted by someone with a yellow marshmellow chick in her hand. I let my guard down for a moment, and the third one landed in my mouth. She felt sorry, though, so she ate the last one to appease me ;).

hehe. marshmallows and custard.
i've just discovered a new brand of premium custard - and i'm in heaven!!!

one time i took over 1400 peeps and put them all over a co workers cubicle... i have pictures of them somewhere... my god it was like a sugar induced LSD trip

I think Satan actually makes those things. They're pure evil.

I can eat like one.. a year. After that I am like.. no.. I am good. And on that note today my friend went to albertsons and talk to a manager there. He wanted to get rid of a basket full of peeps so my friend told him he would give him 5 bucks for the basket. He said yes so for 5 bucks he bought 164 boxes of peeps (some 6 packs some 12 packs)

eh, they are all right. what is really bad is when they get stale...ick...hard peeps.

never heard of them in these here parts

I can eat one or two, but after that it becomes sickening to continue eating them.

This topic reminds me of an experiment we did in science class where we put a Peep in a "vaccuum" and it expanded to the size of a small rodent. :)

haha, <b>EXACTLY</b>.

I've never had one ever. I should try one out once I'm not so much of a fatty.

Peeps are in the same class as Circus Peanuts.
You like them or you don't, theres no in-between.
That and even if you love them you cant eat too many in one sitting.

Circus Peanuts,, what bastard invented those?

I totally agree with this...I cannot even eat one of them!
But give me a box of peeps and they are all mine.

5 bucks for that many peeps? I am so jealous...Ask if he wants to get rid of them....Gotta hit the after Easter sales for peeps.

I can eat about three without feeling sick to my stomach. I can eat about three more before I feel like I need to vomit. They're good in very limited quality for me. My brother loves the things, eats them by the package.

mmmmm, i love peeps... my friend says "peeps are only good after they get stale, you have to let them sit out for a week after easter, before you eat 'em"

Your friend is 100% correct.

haha I had totally forgoten about circus peanuts. I have not had those for years. My dad used to eat them all the time. Those I liked but yea I could only eat a few at a time. And as far as people letting peeps get stale that is actully a rather common thing. I have never tried them that way but I DID watch a thing about them on unwrapped (a good show btw) and they mentioned that on there.

peeps are a communist plot to take over the world!!
Don't let anyone tell you different

peeps are great! I force myself to only eat 1 or 2 though.

Roasted Peeps. There is something sociatal there. Thanks!
