What?!? You actually like Candy Corn. Never could stand them. I'd rather eat a sugar cube.

I think I'd rather be kicked in the nuts with an ice boot, than eat a Peep. But that's just Me.

C'mon Dave, "Peeps" are the Willy Wonka version of chewing tobacco.
Just a "short version" of the Everlasting Gobstopper.

Hate Peeps, but [U]love[U]candy corn! Nibble it one color at a time, mmm...waxy sweet goodness!!!

Oddly, our cat loves Peeps. As soon as the kids open the package she starts bugging them for a handout. Suspect it isn't very good for her, but she only gets one once per year.

I gave them plenty of chances at Halloween during my youth. Every year it was the same thing.... They were terrible.

I use peeps for target practice.

I just don't get what's "delicious" about them -- marshmallow coated in sugar. But, at least they've got character.

You corn-syrup-addicted candy corn guys are just plain sick. Are you freebasing caramel on the side?

Caramel-basing is not for me... and I do cc a couple of times during October only...

As for you Dave, perhaps you like caramel-basing better?

I'm with you! Maybe the occasional piece of really really good cheesecake.

If you like crème brûlée and have never tried Haagen Dazs' Dulche de Leche.... don't. You'll thank me later.

Waitjustaminute --- first, there are cocoa peeps? As in something, however remotely and mildly redeeming about peeps? I must have missed that peephead newsletter.

Second, are there years that are better than others for peeps? What vintages should I be looking out for? How do you go about training your palette for this kind of discerning tongue-curling over-sweetitude? Perhaps Peep Sommelier is a new major at Wonka University?

Cocoa Peeps were a new item this year and 4 peeps = 120 calories

Not a big peeps fan. Our kids don't take prisoners, a package only lasts 10 min or so. I heard the coco ones were good ? I would rather eat a real chicken or bunny.

I could eat a whole box of sugar cubes.

My wife loves peeps, I think they are too sweet.

I thought I was the only one who had that problem. One of my cats will take your arm off for a peep or a marshmellow.
