Peeps are amazing. At my old newspaper job, where we were frequently bored, we would make elaborate Peepscapes with props from the art director's office. One of my favorites involved a Liberace Peep playing tender Peep songs at a tiny piano, while rows upon rows of Peeps watched in adulation. Yes, we bought Peeps specifically for this purpose. No, I don't regret it.

HA! i'm late to this party but you peep-lovin people will freak when i tell you that my dad built a machine 5 years ago for Just Born that packaged their peeps (packaging machinery is exciting). which means that my whole basement was filled with 'samples' of peeps, fresh out of the factory, in all diff colors and variations. i'm talking like 500 boxes at a time- not to mention what the factory looked like. basically it was a peep orgy.

"Peeps" and "Circus Peanuts" are not of this Earth.

Oh my god. I was just now logging on to distract myself from the overwhelming, mind-controlling urge to run to Walgreens and buy all the Peeps in sight. Not helping, Jezebel!

PS: I really had no idea until recently that so many people don't like Peeps. BLASPHEMY!

GRROOOOOOOSSSS!!

Homemade peeps with real marshmallows might actually be good, though.

PEEPS OMG ONE OF THE GREATEST THINGS EVER. And as I have gotten older, I am now experimenting with the "hardening" method, which is my mom's favorite...I like them better than I used to, but still, nothing beats just ripping open the new package and devouring them when they're all fresh and squishy!

I also like "circus peanuts", which I think arguably makes me more deranged, considering "circus peanuts" aren't even remotely marshmallow-like, and yet...are. I blame my mom for that one as well. My dad thinks we're crazy and calls it "Irish food" or the "Irish diet", because he is Sicilian and therefore looks down on our eating habits. But whatever. It's all DELICIOUS.

@SisterRay73: 'fresh and squishy'.

This makes me...uncomfortable.

@SisterRay73: I will tackle you and scratch out your eyes if you stand between me and my circus peanuts. That's how much I love them.

Easier way: 1) drive to CVS 2) buy box of Peeps 3) open box of Peeps 4) devour.

Hey, now, let's not be prejudiced towards or soft, yellow, chewy friends. They may not taste great but how can you hate them? They're marshmallow chicks!

@vamusical: This my favorite Easter activity!

I showed my husband's grandmother, and all her old lady friends, how to perform this blowing up of Peeps at their Florida (where else?) retirement home. The old broads were delighted.

We had to sneak into the kitchen after dinner, though. In case the Man caught us.

I hate peeps so much. The only redeeming (heh heh) thing about them is blowing them up in the microwave. Or expanding them in physics in a bell jar.

I am told by Peeps Pros that they are best eaten stale- open the package and put it away for 3 days and then eat them.

Personally, they kind of scare me.
