I went to the store and found these:



Yummy!

For those outside the US, Peeps are


Marshmallow goodness covered in colored sugar. Started out as an easter treat now they come out every holiday.

But OMG chocolate covered ones are ambrosia from the gods.

Haha. This is brilliant.

[chobitz]

Haha. This is brilliant.

They are sooooooo good too.

I've talked to my non American friends about peeps before and they usually don't understand the love a lot of Americans have for peeps

This was a long time coming!

[AliceFi]

when i went to tokyo, i was totally crazy about 'mini daifuku'
these are the original daifuku: sort of rice paste filled with red beans paste
http://shizuokagourm...8/daifuku-2.jpg

i don't really like those because i hate the red bean paste, but the mini daifuku were really small versions wrapped in plastic, which you could buy in a normal candy-like plastic bag and only costed 100yen per bag, and are incredibly yummy
i think i bought tons of them when i was there XD the garbage can in my room at my host family's house was always filled with it, i was imagining what they were thinking of me seeing that!
it's as sticky as marshmallows, but it's got a non-familiar taste (every candy in japan had a non-familiar taste actually...)
... i really miss them now

[kittycat]

oh and also you can get peeps in canada.... i've seen them before

sure is a good thing i live in belgium and get high quality-chocolate all the time

[Jake2]

Maybe it's just me, but the "chocolate marshmallow" on the packet resembles a mighty turd.

[GreenScissors]

Is it just chocolate or is there marshmallow inside?

[chobitz]

Marshmellow goodness a yellow one to be specific.

Don't get me wrong, except for small boutique chocolate, american chocolate sucks Well also except for Reeses Cups. Not even the best truffle can beat Reeses

Yes we get more than chocolate. There are marshmellow peeps and jelly beans!

[ShinaDutchAD]

I bought one today.

Couldn't have been happier.

It was a chocolate-marshmallowy bliss

Seem like the love of Australians for Cadbury Creme Eggs.

In the UK they have them all year round. Even thought Creme Eggs are hugely popular and often sell out before Easter in Australia, they still won't keep them on the market all year.

Have they ever tried keeping Peeps on the market all year?

Basically they are almost always around.

Springtime (till easter) there are chicks, rabbit and egg shaped peeps.
Beginning of summer (till Independence Day - July 4th) its star shaped peeps
Fall (till Halloween) its jack o laterns, ghosts and black cat shaped peeps
Winter (upto Christmas) its tree and snowmen shaped peeps
Winter (till Valentines Day) its heart shaped peeps.

So basically the only time its hard to find peeps its late july to late september. We get cadbury eggs too! I am in love with the small candy coated ones. I have a tube of them right next to me.
