Eating PEEPS at Easter?

OK, who's guilty? Not me!

Why would anyone, diabetic or not, want to eat Peeps? Every time I walk past them, I nearly gag.

Not guilty this year but all the other years.............beyond GUILTY!!!! LOVE 'em!!!! Din't really like jellybeans though............weird huh????

Brian I am with you. I hate those things.

Now malted speckled eggs are a different story. My wife has to hid the bag and give them to me like 4 at a time for lunch.

GUILTY!! I LOVE those things!!! (but at least they were the sugar free kind this year)

Funny. I didn’t eat em but I bought them for my kids from the Easter Bunny. I ate a Godiva chocolate bunny ear, I’m only human. That and honey baked ham made for a bigger dose day, but worth it. :slight_smile:

ewwww! Peeps remind me of sponges...I wouldn't eat them if someone paid me...well maybe if someone paid me I would but that's the only way. My grandmother used to always get Peeps but she also liked those marshmellowy circus peanut things? Anybody know what I'm talking about? I didn't like those either.

My faves as a kid were malted chocolate speckled eggs, gold brick eggs and Reeses eggs. My daughter loves Reeses eggs so thats what I always buy her.

I was good this year and skipped the candy. :)

We had a family Easter basket to help with the dessert department. The two I like (only one at a time!) are Russell Stover's Coconut Marshmallow eggs, and of course Reeses' Peanut Butter eggs. Better than Halloween!

Do they really make Sugar Free Peeps?

I always enjoy "Peep Art" because people are so creative with Peeps! I don't think I have ever eaten a Peep in my life, so I guess I don't know what I am missing :)

I love the malted milk eggs, but I did not even have one this Easter.

I have never in my life tried a peep's not much of a marshmallow fan, I did pretty good had dinner and lots and lots of cucumber some bday cake and ice cream.. ok I admit it I didnt do to good lol!!

Yup! They're pretty good too. I can only have one at a time since they're so darn sweet!

I had one! That’s all I needed. They are much better if you let them become stale.

I love PEEPS.. one at a time now but I used to eat an entire little box of them. hahah... diabetes has given me some self control I guess. But I still have to have some sweets or I might go nuts. Thanks goodness for Diet Soda. PEEP PEEP....

Wow I thought I was the only one that thinks stale PEEPS are awesome.

Yep know exactly what ur talking about and love them too. Ugh not a good D when it comers to Peeps and Circus peanuts! LOL!

Melitta,

Saw a Peep Art exhibit in DC a couple of years ago. Hilarious & clever.

I've never had one either. Doesn't appeal to me. Now, eating a chocolate bunny is a different story. An advantage to being non-Christian is not having grown up with Easter baskets & its goodies.

And I thought "peeps" were "buddies". I'm just going to have to keep up with my slang better!

I’m another one that LOVES stale peeps!
