    My kiddo loves them so much! Actually, all of my kiddos do.
    Here's how I feel about them

    I'm not a fan. It's like eating plastic sugar :giggle I just can't. I feel the same way about the Cadbury Creme Eggs that are everywhere right now as well..yuck! Give me all the jelly beans though :)

    That first photo shows the best use of Peeps I have ever seen! I love it! :D

    I never liked Peeps. Haven't been a fan of marshmallows since I was kid. But when my middle kid was a child (and still maybe once or twice a year) I would buy them because C is allergic to dairy and wheat. So, especially when they were younger, that left only the sugary candy. There are some good dairy free chocolate choices nowadays though.

    Nope, we don't have those at all.
    Don't feel like I am missing out though.

    I love the top Peeps picture! I would buy Peeps but they never got eaten so I just don’t buy them anymore.

    Peeps aren't my peeps. lol. Can't stand them. Now the Cadbury eggs I have LOVED for years, but the past two years I can't take all that sugary filling. If it was half the volume, maaaaybe. I love their chocolate- but not the candy coating of the little eggs. Jelly beans- nope. No jellies for my basket!

    I LOVE Peeps!! I can't buy them because I eat the whole package no matter how big. I eat them in strips. :heartslub:heartslub:heartslub

    If they are fresh, I don't think they're bad, exactly, but I'd much rather spend my candy calories elsewhere.

    Peeps are not my favorite at all, but if I do have one, I actually prefer it to be slightly stale. I think maybe it's because they seem a little less sweet?

    Cadbury Eggs have always been way too sweet for me. I do like jelly beans, but I'd rather have chocolate, especially Reese's. :)

    So I like peeps. Super fresh we just put them on the shelf this morning peeps. Those packages are not air tight and they get stale quickly. The sugar free ones are pretty good. I generally only get one package a season although I probably haven’t had one in 5 years

    I eat one a year, if that. And it can't be fresh. It has to be slighty hard? lol! I don't know what term to use, not crunchy, nor brick hard, not quite firm, but not soft, and definitely not fresh... malleable? semisoft? :giggle

    Just like candy corns... I eat about a handful a year. It's always the weird seasonal candies, lol!

    Here's something that you can do with peeps in place of eating them:

    Not a fan of Peeps or Cadbury Creme eggs. My dad loves Peeps, and I always put a small pack in each of the GS's Easter basket. I'm not sure they eat them, but hey! it's tradition. I don't buy the Cadbury Creme eggs, just the mini eggs.

    I usually buy a pack or two around Easter and that's about all we eat here. It's more of a novelty.
    We did try roasting them one year. We thought it might be funny to see them expand..and it didn't really work.

    I don't enjoy peeps but my daughters do. They like the cotton candy ones. I don't really go for jelly beans either.

    I do however LOVE Brach's Fiesta Malted Milk Eggs. Luckily they are hard to find and only come out at Easter!
