Peeps!All about peeps! So sweet and chewy and cute all over. Apparently, they're not just for Easter anymore. They've come a long way since I got the little yellow guys in my Easter basket as a kid, apparently. I had no idea this company had gotten so far flung in its enterprise.

Doh! Sorry for the repeat post. Forgot to do the search before posting: inexcusable.

Here's a cake recipe that includes Peeps and other Just Born brand candies. And frosting. But especially Peeps.

It makes my teeth hurt just looking at it.

astrogirl: I got diabetes just looking at that cake :)

I was a Peeps newbie this year, having lived 29 years without one. They're good and definitely something evil.

psmealy - it appears, if you look at the dates, that this is sort of an annual thing, so i think that your post should be interpreted as carrying forward noble tradition rather than putting a negative slant on it. :-)

i can't believe that the discoveries of peeps and DNA are the same age...

There can never be enough opportunities to decry the essential e-vilness of the peeps. They alone are responsible for the deplorable state of our society. There is no ill in the world today that cannot be traced directly to the feet (or whatever they have) of the peeps.

What?!?! No one has linked the *official* page of torture, destruction, and slaughter of peeps yet?

Here it is. Brace yourself -- it's funny. VERY funny.

Ya gotta let 'em get stale before you eat 'em, though.
