People tend to go a little haywire over Peeps. We've given you a taste of the madness before, but there's even more sugar-infused insanity this year. Via the epi-log over at Epicurious: chef Francisco Migoya of The Culinary Institute of America has a video up on You Tube demonstrating how to make your own Peeps aptly titled "The Peep Show."
More Peeps madness:
- Peeps "celebrity survey" via Slashfood:
apparently the Peeps Chick is cooler than the Peeps Bunny, according to 59% of those surveyed, and people think that President Bush and Britney Spears are both in need of some Peeps in their life.
- This year, yellow Chick Peeps are available in a new sugar free variety, and are also available in their original sugary goodness, but in green. The Bunny, not to be outdone, is now offered in a cocoa flavor.
- Daily Candy pointed out that Jacques Torres is making dark-chocolate covered Peeps.
- Also on You Tube -- a mortal combat Peeps fight.
And if all those Peeps are too much for you, you might want to stick to Cadbury Cream Egg Ice Cream.





This year's Cadbury "Cream" Eggs are noticeably smaller than the ones in past years. Not any cheaper, though.
Ahh, the glorious Peeps season. Seriously, Easter is the BEST time for candy. Mini Eggs, Peeps, any candy in an "egg" shape makes it 10 times better. I could care less about the actual holiday, but the candy totally makes it worth it.
Not to mention the fact that I was THRILLED when peeps began being offered for other holidays.
For what it's worth (which isn't much), it's spelled "Britney" not "Brittany." You'd think 10 years of tabloids would teach us all how to spell her name.
Is the Peep-mobile going to be here this year?
i just got a cavity looking at that photo!
screw peeps! what about the malted milk robin eggs? mmmmm
