So Easter is close and I know because we took our daughter to her first Easter Egg hunt of the season today. Come home and make my World Famous chicken and steak fajitas and what does she want for dessert?? PEEPS! I can’t stand ‘em she loves ‘em. Thoughts?

I've never tried one. I'm not sure if they even sell them around here. If they do, I've never noticed them.
From what I hear they are a love-or-hate thing.

To me, they're best stale. The package needs to be open about a week and then the outer shell gets a little bit crunchy.

Reason 1,332,439 that I love the inter-web! :mrgreen: Without it you would never find anything like that. :shock:

Getting ready to hit play on "The Last Exorcism". With any luck it will add to my nightmares. Lights out, wireless headphones UP! The only way I watch horror movies...if it really is one. :roll: Hard to tell these days... :|

I find them to be alright if eaten in moderation.

Sugar covered marshmallows basically. They're made into different shapes and colors depending on the season.

Peeps are the devil. A vile concoction of sugar and food coloring. That's why I only eat Circus Peanuts. :lol: Just kidding, Circus Peanuts are gross too. Now, peanut M&Ms? Despite me not being a chocolate fan, I can't stop eating those.
