OMG! I LOVE stale peeps! I grew up in Colorado where my mother and I would stock up on peeps and chocolate marshmallow bunnies, punch holes in the packages and leave them 'til they were rock hard! I was very disappointed when I moved to Virginia where, with the humidity, nothing would stale crunchy! My mother tried to send me some crunchy ones from Colorado one time but unfortunately Virginia's humidity reincarnated them!
