Peeps Research

Someone had WAY too much time on their hands. Be sure to click through to the "research"--funny!

The real need is for research to determine why people voluntarily eat such a disgusting item.

Shawnee123 03-21-2007 10:57 AM

Hey kids, you can do Peep experiments at home. Put one in the microwave and watch the fascinating results! :)

Ohh! :eek:

Peeps are good. Last year (yes, I'm slow sometimes,) I discovered toasting peeps. Put one on a skewer and hold it over the flame of the gas burner. the skin is all sugary and it gets nicely caramelized and crunchy. Also, the marshmallow puffs up too. Man that's good.

Shawnee123 03-21-2007 11:02 AM

:lol: You could add some hershey bars and graham crackers for a new taste treat. Just refrain from calling them Cheep S'mores cuz it sounds too much like Cheap Whores.

I wonder if jelly beans come out of their peep holes?

"Peep holes, Peep holes who need peep holes. Are the luckiest peep holes...in the world.":D

My wife loves peeps... freaks me out.

elSicomoro 03-22-2007 01:33 PM

I bought a small pack of them yesterday...I fucking love them. Not as much as the Cadbury eggs, but they're pretty fucking good. And they make 'em in green now!

Green you say? Well, isn't that...er....umm...nice.

And now that we have satiated your somewhat desperate Peeps needs, perhaps we could go shopping for that LIFE you need so badly.


;) LOL!!!!

elSicomoro 03-22-2007 03:38 PM

It doesn't take much to amuse me or make me happy.

Cloud 03-22-2007 03:52 PM

so, do the green peeps make you horny, like green M&Ms?

Cloud 03-22-2007 03:53 PM

Anna Nicole "summarized in marshmallow." Luv it!

Nah...nothing like that. :D I dunno...peeps are just so tasty. And blue ones used to be my favorite...I even have a blue stuffed peep that I got one Easter. But green is my favorite color, so...whoohoo!

Incidentally, I like yellow grass in my Easter basket...isn't that weird?

SOMEBODY needs a peeps intervention.

We don't get 'peeps' over here (that I've seen) ....I feel I am missing out.

Happy Monkey 03-22-2007 06:58 PM

Did you ever feel that marshmallows just weren't cute enough?

Perry Winkle 03-22-2007 07:16 PM

Peeps are disgusting. Reester Bunnies and circus peanuts for the win!

I guess you don't want to see this then.

DanaC 03-23-2007 05:31 AM

wow. that's a whole lot of food colourings.

elSicomoro 03-23-2007 08:22 AM

NEVER, SHELDON! YOU'LL NEVER TAKE MY PEEPS AWAY FROM ME!

Go here, scroll down to Check This Out on the right side, then click on "Primp Your Peeps."

My sis-in-law took some back to New Zealand a couple years ago; they hadn't seen them either! The Kiwis loved them. They're an Easter basket staple around here.

Oh no, I had forgotten about circus peanuts. Like eating a styrofoam cup.

Someone mentioned Cadbury's. I could never eat a whole one, they're SO sweet.

Sundae 03-23-2007 09:48 AM

Making a giant Cadbury's Creme Egg from Pimp That Snack (which I found via the Yet More Keen Links thread here).

I love that website.

DanaC 03-23-2007 01:01 PM

Ahhh now, Cadbury's Creme Egg is our easter basket staple!

wolf 03-23-2007 01:44 PM

We are near where Peeps come from. The Holy Land of Peeps, one might say.

JustBorn is in Bethlehem, Penna., one of my friends worked there as a security guard some years back ... we were awash in Peeps as well as the experimental Mike 'n Ikes during that period.

More Peeps

I can't stand the darn things. Amusement value is high, but I don't like eating them.

I bite the heads off chocolate bunnies with aplomb, though.

Yeah, I don't like fruit and chocolate...

*drools*

Don't know if they make them there, but we also have ones with double chocolate, caramel and orange fillings. I like the original and the caramel ones...haven't tried the other two.

The chocolate and orange are nothing special...the orange are a bit nasty, really.

elSicomoro 03-27-2007 02:23 PM

Rhoda used to like the chocolate ones. They came out the year I worked at CVS (2001), so I used to buy them on discount. They've never appealed to me...the caramel ones are almost too sweet to me. Double chocolate? That probably would be too sweet.

Sheldonrs 03-29-2007 09:26 AM

Wonder if this was made in 3 peep parts

We have a girl at work who literally vomits at the site of them. We keep hiding them around her work place or in her purse.

So I just bought some Peeps at Walgreens, and I'm dedicating them to Sheldon, my newest fruity friend. As such, it was important to buy the fruitiest-looking ones they had. The winners?

Shawnee123 03-29-2007 12:16 PM

What the hell is that little blue bunny in the corner trying to do? Looks like he's pointing at peep-snatch.

elSicomoro 03-29-2007 12:17 PM

Bunnies need love, too.

Shawnee123 03-29-2007 12:18 PM

LMFAO--you almost made diet coke come out my nose.

Awwww.... Fruity Pee...er..I mean Peeps! :D

Thanks!!!

wolf 03-30-2007 12:17 PM

Infidel. If they ain't yellow chickies, they ain't actually Peeps. Bunnies, Halloween Bats and cats, Santas ... marketing ploys all.

Sheldonrs 03-30-2007 12:41 PM

And speaking of the ultimate Easter Candy...

The Chocolate Jesus!!!

Shawnee123 03-30-2007 01:42 PM

Weird, Shel.

My mom and younger brother and I were emailing, and I sent them the church sign generator. The conversation progressed to mom saying people were really offended about the chocolate jesus. I said that the jes probably has a sense of humor and would like his chocolate rendering. I said I was more offended by this jesus monstrosity:


http://www.roadsideamerica.com/attract/OHMONjesus.html

About a half hour later I had a voicemail. I listened to it and it was a few lines of "Spirit in the Sky."

My brother might have been messing with me, what if not? :worried:
Oh well, I always said I was going to hell but would be satan's girlfriend so I'll get the good room.

Sundae 03-30-2007 01:43 PM

You've included the picture where Jesus has a necrotic arm
You should be worried

Shawnee123 03-30-2007 01:45 PM

We can rebuild him.
We have the technology.
