To Peep or not!

[PamfromTx]

Easter just wouldn’t be the same without Peeps. Nearly everyone born since the 1950s remembers getting those colorful little marshmallow chicks and bunnies in their Easter baskets. They’re still popular today, largely because of their nostalgia value – and the fact that they’re so darn kitschy.

In fact, you could say that peeps are to food what ugly Christmas sweaters are to clothing. As a holiday tradition, they’re hard to explain. All we know is that we find them endlessly amusing.

If you’re giving peeps this Easter, you can make them even more amusing (in an appropriately campy sort of way) by attaching a silly message. To help, here’s a list of shamelessly goofy puns, jokes and sayings for all the peep-le in your life.

It’s Easter, for Peep’s sake!
You and I are like two peeps in a pod.
I heard you wanted to see a peep show.
Hope you enjoy this peeps offering.
Power to the Peep-le!
To a real peep-le person.
I do want to hear another peep out of you – keep in touch!
Our friendship is growing by peeps and bounds!


Hope you enjoy this tongue-in-peep gift.
I never get tired of hanging with my peeps.
I heard you like hanging out with your peeps.
Without you, I’d go off the peep end!
All I am saying, is give peeps a chance.
To a person with real peep-le skills.
Wishing you peeps and happiness this Easter!



OK, I'm all peeped out. Enough is enough.

I get a kick out of them but I have no desire to eat them.

 

[Aneeda72]

I have a great desire to eat them, but will not. Can’t have them and gummies both so, no peeps

I have a problem with Peeps. I don't understand why they have to be covered in sugar. I'd like them a lot more if they weren't.

But then they would be marshmallows and you would have to build a campfire, buy graham crackers and chocolate, and make s’mores

Isn't a naked Peep a marshmallow?

Not really, Peeps are colored and flavored. And then it is covered in sugar.

Give peeps a chance.

Can't stand them. I'm a candy snob.

Back in the 50's I think peeps looked more like baby chicks and only yellow was available, but I think they taste the same.
The Hot Tamales weren't bad and not really hot.
I usually stick to the yellow ones. Purple has a bitter taste probably because of all the food coloring.

I could be wrong but it seems like they had less sugar on them when I was a kid.

 

[SeaBreeze]

I ate Peeps as a kid, the yellow chicks, but I don't like them anymore, too sweet. Graduated to Cadbury Creme Eggs.

It's possible the marshmallow part contains pork. So no more Peeps or marshmallows other than the Kosher kind. Those little things were fun to see and eat when I was a child though. Wasn't Muslim back then. @SeaBreeze My son used to love the Cadbury Cream Eggs. I bought one for him every year, even when he was an adult. He doesn't eat them anymore though.

Ah! More for you!

I always get some peeps and Cadbury eggs around Easter. I really miss making those Easter baskets for the girls each year. Also the Easter dresses for Church. I have to admit that I kept making the baskets for the girls until they graduated high school. They loved them and I did too!

They are quite good if double dipped in good dark chocolate.

Great for decorating an Easter cake as well !

There are no Peeps to be seen and I went from store to store earlier this evening while shopping for hubby's approaching birthday. I saw nothing left of the Easter merchandise either. I wanted to collect one bunny rabbit and didn't find a single one.
