Peeps vs Candy Corn

[Zen]

as much of a sugar freak as I am, both choices repulse me.

[Running Mommy]

Oh boy... candy corn. Peeps only if they are stale, or I'm feeling desperate for sugar... Love the candy corn with the brown bottom best. fako chocolate!

Ok, I need to get sugar off the brain!
Tomorrow is a new day and I vow to EAT CLEAN for the rest of the week. MUST LOSE AT LEAST ONE POUND THIS WEEK!!!
I really want to hit a milestone going into next week. I'll be at Interbike that next week, so I need some momentum going into it. A week eating in Vegas is gonna be HELL on the diet..

Candy corn. Sort of.

I'm eating an Abba Zabba as we speak, so what do I know?

[Beane]

my vote would be for peeps. but really, do they have to compete? i mean, candy corn is a halloween thing and peeps are so easter.

What do you mean, candy corn is not one of the 5 food groups? Are you trying to tell me that corn isn't a vegetable? My husband tried to make me believe this as well, but he hasn't convinced me yet.

OK OK...

I get the Peeps thing... thanks for the link Salsa... but I'll join Zen, Oxys, Veronica... they look waaaay to sweet for me... though they are cute.

Now clarification on candy corn... is that like popcorn? But drizzled with sugary/toffeeish stuff (like caramel corn?)

Nope, no real corn involved; candy corn is pure sugar.

I had noooooooooooo idea.

Peeps and candy corn. I'd have to say eeeewwwwwwwww to both.

Now good chocolate (milk or dark, preferrably with nuts) is a whole different story. Oh, and I love cream eggs too. Thank god they're only out once a year!!

Ditto what beane said.- But the Cadbury question- I respect Cadbury eggs, used to love them- (plus they had one of the greastet TV commericals ever- the bunny that clucked like a chicken)- what up?

I love the Dove truffle eggs- only available at easter-

and Peeps- pink bunnies or yellow chickies only- the blue & purple are too weird for me.

Peeps dipped in dark chocolate. Hmmmmm, could be brilliant.

RoadRaven...I had the pleasure of being sent some peeps last year from one of the lovely ladies round here....Let's just say they're not on my list of things i want to eat all the time. They taste like marshmallows and come in some interesting themed shapes & sizes plus they last quite a long time the freezer!!! ( )

I think i'd rather eat tim tams!

Peeps have also made important contributions in theater!
