It's gotta be said - I hate Peeps. Fucking disgusting. Also Circus Peanuts.

[Rabrrrrrr]

Might as well toss that into the mix, too, while I'm at it, since they're even grosser than Peeps.

Other than their obvious use as items to be tortured and photographed, what the hell are Peeps for, anyway? Seriously - does anyone eat that fucking shit?

And what the fuck are Circus Peanuts? Smallpox-infested wool blankets that have lain unwashed in the barn for 40 years, that are pureed, dyed orange, and made into peanut shapes? Jesus, they're gross.

[bicentennial_baby]

1. I'm with ya on this...

:thumbsup:

and, :puke:

[SPKrazy]

2. I Thought I Hated Peeps Too!

then I had some and I ate about 3 and I was just bouncing off the walls, I mean it was wild, it was great and ....


okay, peeps aren't that great, sugar covered marshmallows, sugar covered sugar...

circus peanuts? not even peanuts! not even from the circus!

kinda nasty things actually.

:shrug:

[AlCzervik]

3. i can't eat peeps, the main reason is the sound the sugar makes, the crunching

between your teeth. As for circus peanuts i didn't realize they were still manufactured--no thanks.

[Tektonik]

4. Heathen

Circus Peanuts are a food of the gods (unless they are stale :puke: )
Peeps are alright

[Hugin]

5. Circus Peanuts and Circus Clowns... Is there a connection?

Hmm...

[haf216]

6. I thought I was the only one.

Just the thought of Peeps makes me want to gag.:puke:

[Venus Dog]

7. Thank you. I always hated Peeps too

I usually associate them with the weight-challenged. If you're gonna eat candy - at least eat the premium stuff. Why just glob sugar-coated marshmallow blobs down your gob. But, LOL, what the hell are circus peanuts? Never heard of the crap, but your description was :spray: BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!:rofl:

[jmowreader]

52. There's another name for Circus Peanuts

"Packing Peanuts."

The taste and mouthfeel are identical.

[Radio_Lady]

8. Goodness, could I be so out of touch with reality that I didn't know what Peeps are???

Had to look it up in Wikipedia...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peeps

I love candy as well as the next person. Perhaps the fact that hubby and I didn't grow up celebrating Easter?

[Lydia Leftcoast]

9. I hate them, too, along with candy corn

Give me good old chocolate, preferably with nuts in it.

[NewWaveChick1981]

10. I like both Peeps and Circus Peanuts.

:P So sue me. :rofl:

[SPKrazy]

11. Consider Yourself Lurved!

:P

In the district court of the DU Lounge

The Honorable Skinner presiding

We find you well lurved by one and all! ;)


:P

[NewWaveChick1981]

13. Well, if that's how it is, I won't post any more pictures.

:cry:

:rofl: :P :hi:

[SPKrazy]

15. Wait a minute...

I'm just the messenger :P

what papers... ???

what are you talking about?

:rofl:

edit

LOOK UP!

[NewWaveChick1981]

18. Cheater.

:rofl: :hi: OK, OK. We're friends again. :P

Ya know, if we were talking about something as gross as headcheese instead of Peeps and Circus Peanuts, it'd be OK to give me a hard time. :P

[SPKrazy]

22. You said head

cheese

:rofl:

:hi:

;) how's it going NWC?

[NewWaveChick1981]

25. I'll bet you give good headcheese.

:P Ummm...on second thought....:yoiks: :rofl: :hi:

Pretty well, SPK! :hi: You doing OK? :D

[SPKrazy]

28. I Don't Know If I Do Or Not...

:shrug:

I'm hangin' in there NWC!

:rofl:

[Connonym]

38. This year I found easter candy that was circus peanuts shaped like bunnies and chicks

Yum, yum!! I'm actually going to hit the store tomorrow and see if I can stock up on it (and Peeps!) on clearance.

[NewWaveChick1981]

42. Oooh, my husband found some of those at the grocery store yesterday!

:bounce: :toast: They're delicious! :9 I hope you can get some of them on clearance! And he picked up some half-price Peeps too. :woohoo:

[amitten]

12. I'm with ya on the peanuts...food from Satan himself. But Peeps...

lovey soft puffy melty ooey gooey sugary squeezably soft Peeps...

i love the little peeps. :blush:

[crim son]

14. Couldn't agree more.

Maybe those were desirable "sweets" in the days when people made their own candies at home but people, it's 2007! Time to put away old things and eat your Sour Patch Kids, I say!

[SPKrazy]

17. Eat Your Sour Patch Kids

SPK's

eat your SPK's! :rofl:

[crim son]

33. That may be one reason why I choose to call you pawpicker.

SPKs have a whole 'nother meaning for me! :rofl:

[SPKrazy]

34. LOL

;)

:rofl:

[TommyO]

16. Count me in as a Peeps hater

and I live within two miles of the Just Born factory where they make these marshmallow menaces.

[Left Is Write]

[Left Is Write]

24. I drive a minivan while talking on my cell phone and listening to KISS.

But I will NOT eat circus peanuts!

[SPKrazy]

29. HAHAHA!

you've got deep personal issues don't you :think:


:rofl:

(kidding)

:P

[Left Is Write]

31. Well, you know. I do have SOME standards!

[mykpart]

41. But have you ever breast-fed in public?

:rofl:

[yy4me]

32. Good Grief, I just ate dinner !!!

This is revolting. Can we make some and send it to Washington?

[Hugin]

51. Okay... That did it... I'm gonna hurl! *ulk* *ulk*

*HOOWAA*! :puke:

[Kat45]

20. I love them peeps.

Got myself 45 of them this year. :9

[Deja Q]

27. Would you love them like this?

http://peeps.dpcphoto.com
:evilgrin:

The Peep Omelet will be served soon...

[Kat45]

35. They should be reported to the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Peeps

[Pacifist Patriot]

21. Abominations, both of them!

[NC_Nurse]

26. Blech!

I hate them too. :puke:

[texanwitch]

30. I used to like circus peanuts but not anymore.

I never liked peeps.

I do like to buy after Easter big chocolate bunny or two.

[trof]

36. commonist

[Venus Dog]

37. OMG - I just saw the picture of circus peanuts and they are the grossest!

I never knew they had a name, but I remember taking a bite of one and almost pukking. Who the hell would make something like this for consumption? They are worse than Peeps :puke:

[FloridaJudy]

39. I *Like* Peeps...

They do cool things when you put them in the microwave:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I18FIrE5xfk&mode=related&search=

What?? Some people actually EAT them??
That's sick!

[mcscajun]

40. You must have tried eating them fresh. They need to be properly

aged, like Steak or a good wine. :evilgrin:

Peeps, that is. I wouldn't eat Circus Peanuts on a bet. :puke:

[Connonym]

46. that's exactly it

peeps and peanuts (red vines too if you really want to know) must become stale and chewy to be at their best.

[6000eliot]

43. They both have gelatin in them

So, as a vegetarian, I don't eat them.

[hfojvt]

50. gelatin isn't a fruit?

:crazy:
Kinda gross http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gelatin
But apparently digestible and said to be good for ulcers. Wish I had known that two years ago.

[AllegroRondo]

44. Try them microwaved

for about 10 seconds. they blow up to the size of a softball, and the consistancey of marshmallow fluff.

[Shakespeare]

45. Here, have this instead:

[youthere]

47. It's what they feed you in hell...along with candy corn.

Nasty nasty stuff.

[JitterbugPerfume]

48. peeps are disgusting

I used to have a friend who waited for them with anticipation every spring

she was weird in other ways too!:crazy:

[Parche]

49. CandycORN

Makes me gag a Cheney..............uuuuuuuuuuuggggggggggggghhh

[Ms_Dem_Meanor]

53. Agreed!!!

I think the Circus Peanuts are best used as packing peanuts. Hey, I think packing peanuts just might taste better. :)

[jakefrep]

54. Here, have a S'peep

http://www.cdkitchen.com/recipes/recs/146/SPEEPs93564.shtml

S'mores with Peeps instead of marshmallows. My mom made them yesterday for dessert.
