This Easter grab some PEEPS!
Okay this is a PSA in honour of my old Rez roommate from M.S.U.... This Easter when you’re biting into your Mr. Solid and or Garfield/Ice Age/Shrek/Sponge Bob/Superman/Spider-man/Jem and the Holograms hollowed out Chocolate themed Easter mold - I want you to consider eating a Peep! No don't go all Dr. Lector on your pal - eat a MARSHMALLOW PEEP!

I know - I never ate them either until I went to the States for University... they love'em down there (just like us Canadians love our fry sauce! Or at least that’s what Americans TELL ME that we like that...) Where was I going with this? Oh yeah... Justin my old Rez roommate from Crane Hall! Yeah he loved his Peeps (Marshmallow ones anyways) He ate like 10 thousand of them our Easter breaks back in the day. I was eating my Mr. Solid as per normal and after I watched him eat the 1st 34 dozen boxes I finally asked him for one. It was like eating some kinda of mutant hybrid of a Marshmallow and Styrofoam. SO! Now that I've sold you on da Peeps, go buy some! Or better yet take a page from the book of my old roommate: Wait till the day after Easter and buy a million of them @ Wal-Mart for like 12 cents.
ENJOY!
Happy Easter Everyone! Err wait.... sigh. I mean HOPPY Easter Everyone!

Little Known Peeps Facts:

In the 1950’s it took 27 HOURS to make one PEEPS Chick. Today is takes six minutes.

Peeps are so popular; they have been the best selling NON-chocolate Easter candy for the last decade! (Wait aren’t they the ONLY NON-chocolate Easter candy?!)
