After a definite Peeps shortage in my area in at Christmas and Valentine's Day, I finally saw the Easter Peeps and bought them for Easter. I thought that if I waited too long, I wouldn't find any. They had them at Dollar General, the yellow chicks and blue rabbits (something new.) The prices has gone up though from $1.00 a box to $1.25, and there was a limited supply. It wouldn't be Easter without my Peeps!

I can't buy them because I can't stop eating them!!! I have loved them since I was a kid and they were always my favorite Easter candy.

My family all loves them - especially stale. I'd rather choke on a furball ... Yuck.

Hate Peeps. They are in the same category as cotton candy. Some people like peeps better when they are stale.

I love peeps. Yum. One of the things in my Easter basket I really looked forward to. The only thing I liked more was getting a big ole chocolate rabbit.

My sister puts them in the microwave...smells like roasted marshmallows.

I don't like to eat them, but no Easter basket is complete without them. I like the pink bunnies.

At 58, I still enjoy Peeps. One or two satisfies me for quite awhile, and am not sure whether it's the taste, or the memories that are revived by eating a Peep!

Me too, RedTop, and I'm older than you by a decade. Love peeps and just got my first box this week. They're lavender and they look so pretty. Haven't eaten any yet but I'll break down and open the package one of these days.
