I had never even heard of PEEPS until the threads here about this time last year. Seeing them in the store, and making sure nobody I knew was anywhere close, I bought some. Not waiting until I got home, I opened the package as soon as I got to the car, bit into a yellow one....... and almost gagged. These things are horrible! Sign me up if there is a concerted effort to eliminate these from the world.

I was the same, I had heard all about Peeps in the threads here on AW and when I happened across them in the shops I purchased some, but I waited until I got home, and I am really glad that I waited , because it would not have been very lady like of me to be seen spitting that disgusting stuff out on the footpath or out the window of my car.

I know a lot of people who LOVE these stupid things - but I think they are GROSS!! EWWwwwwwwwwww is right! They used to only come out at Easter time, but now they are almost out year round! There are PEEPS for just about every holiday now.

Peeps are great for getting rid of sparrows or pigeons, whichever of these is messing up your yard. Simply string them and hang them in the trees. Of course, if a good bird gets his beak stuck in one of them, you will have to go out and separate him from the peep.
You can also use peeps to level pictures on the wall. Chew them slightly (or get some sucker to do this for you) and then stick him on back bottom of the frame, and then to the wall. This will keep the picture from shifting to one side.
Peeps can be used to replace the putty in windows-just choose a color that coordinates with your room decor. They can also be used to tighten loose joints in old chairs-once again, choose a suitable color, chew the peep slightly, and force into the hole, then clamp the joint til dry. Any excess that oozes out can be sanded off when dry.
Whatever you do, don't let your family eat them! The residual can clog up your plumbing pretty badly!
Chocolate, on the other hand, is perfect in every respect.

Well I just tried my first Peep in a hot Chocolate, and I have to tell you that in future I think I will pass.
I firmly believe that this will be my first and last year of ever buying Peeps. Now for those of you who do like them, well all I can say is : Your taste is in your ......um, foot.
