Peeps vs Candy Corn

[Trekhawk]

no no no Trekhawk, peeps AREN'T marshmallows. They are something ELSE.
They even have protein in them! yes! it's true. That's why they are not water soluable..

REESE'S RULE-- I love peanut butter in almost any form - except Jelly Bellies-

and to JuJu- until a week ago I only liked the original Hershey Kisses- I wish they would stop meddlin'- but then- a friend ( a true friend brings chocolate)
brought me a bag of Truffle kisses- some of Milton Hershey's finest work-

It's a teeny skeleton that you put in water, and it grows.

How did I miss this thread?

Candy corn: used to eat some every now and then, but now I won't go near them because 5 years ago I discovered mellowcreme pumpkins, mmmmmm (see below). I find these to be far superior due to their shape and texture, despite tasting nearly identical to candy corn. My rule is no more than 4 a day. The bag must be kept in the pantry, not on the counter, to prevent passing-by-munching.

Peep: love 'em. Around easter I cannot get enough. I was happy to discover that Michael's craft store typically carries peeps for the more obscure holidays, such as Valentine's day and 4th of July. I have had the ghosts and pumpkins, but not the cats. Must track down the cats.

Circus peanuts, interesting, I don't care for these much. But I LOOOOVE lucky charms. I try to eat "adult" cereal most of the time, but every now and then I let myself get a box of lucky charms. If DH is caught eating them he gets the silent treatment for the day.

Did you have to post the pumpkins?!

Must. Step. Away. Now.

Oh, I know the beauty of the pumpkins.

Oh yes. FAR superior.

I had no desire for any of these candies until this thread

smartie!

Yes I am. Especially when I'm much too far away to be kicked in my smart little arse for whatever may have most certainly earned it.

You MUST try combining one part candy corn, one part salted peanuts....wonderful! I used this trick to power me thru a 24 hour race last fall. I'm sure the dieticians would scoff, but my body thrived!

Yes, this is a wonderful combo and does me in once a year

PEEPS! They are far superior to candy corn. I sort of want some now. Candy Corn is icky. Those pumpkin things sound interesting. But...chocolate is the way to go. I just bought some dark chocolate from New Seasons, with blueberries in it. It was $4. :O It's really yummy!

And this talk of letting the Peeps get stale! I've never heard of that, and it sounds really gross. It's also gross that some of them DON'T get stale. I'm not sure if I want Peeps anymore or not now.
