Safe but a waste of calories.

Cadbury eggs good. Peeps no good.

People would buy them and poke holes in the package to let them dry and then eat them.

My Mama LOVED Peeps. One time in her last few years, I caught her going into a desk drawer and pulling one out and popping it in her mouth. Once she was caught, we told her she didn’t have to hide them, LOL, she could have as many as she wanted. I have no affinity for them. They’re just cute to look at.

I hope not. That’s half the fun.

Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peepers, how many pecks of pickled peepers did Peter Piper pick?

[SIDENET]

I didn't think that anyone actually ate Peeps.

I know many people who drank milk when they were children and ultimately died in their 60’s and 70’s......Too many for it to be a mere coincidence.

“...some freaks eat candy corn!”

Candy Corn mixed with a bag of Salted peanuts is divine! It has all the major Food Groups: Sugar, Fat and Salt! ;)

“Have a better way to indulge in ones erythrosine/titanium dioxide fix?”

I’ll bet you can find it in paste Food Coloring for frosting and in those dye-kits for your Easter Eggs...though who can afford them this year?

Let’s Go, Brandon! *SPIT*

We need a Come and Take it Flag with Peeps.

I’m a traditionalist. I like the yellow chicks to eat.

But for Peeps jousting, they all are good.
