Even love to see it in a clear glass candy dish. Who else shares my seasonal addiction?

As a side note, my Mom celebrated spring with tray after tray of the yellow Easter Peeps. Never could share her enthusiasm for the chicks.

I'm more of a take it or leave it kinda person. I have to be in the mood for it.
As for peeps, never have and never will like them. The thought of them make my teeth hurt.

ditto the peeps and teeth..............but once a year the candy corn calls to me

Guilty, love candy corn and peeps. I think i have sugar running through my veins too. Try so hard not to get any but when i see it in the store i know it is time to get a bag. Jelly beans are another of my weaknesses.....I am hopeless

I loved it as a kid, and I still like it, but can only eat a little, as it is just too sweet for my taste now.

There is no doubt the original is the best and of course it is a veggie - CORN!
Peeps are best if they are left out to get "stale".
