It's that time of year for--Peeps!

If you appreciate the joys of being a purple peep-eater like me, you know that Spring, and/or Easter, makes the little buggers hatch. Or exude. Or extrude. I'm not sure which.

In any case, the fine people at PeepResearch.org have done outstanding studies on Peeps. They have even gone so far as performing surgery to liberate the little critters from each other. I'm not sure if the Peeps fully contemplated life separated from each other, but I suppose that's better than having their little beaks chewed off by children who have just bitten the ears off of chocolate bunnies.

Anyway, I was especially moved by the Peep Surgery section. The Code Purple entry is truly a marvel. Make sure to set down any drinks prior to reading, unless you like your monitor showered with your favorite drink.

A fun use for PEEPs is microwave jousting. Get two of different colours, insert toothpicks for lances and nuke 'em. As they expand they "joust" .. :)

Wow my brother would absolutely love you. He has this huge Peeps fetish that I dont even understand. Im going to send him this link of yours lol. I can't eat them myself as they make me gag. 

Very creative! 

I can't claim authorship on this one, though I wish I could! :D  

A friend of mine sent it to me a few years back, and I fell over laughing.

@Hawkee--I am SO going to try that!

Gotta love peeps.  It's better than eating plain marshmallows all the time.

 Come every Easter, lol.   My wife loves those things.  I just don't get it, tasteless lil wads of artificial marshmallow.

Cadbury Creme Eggs, however. :)

OMG yes Raf!

My hubs has a big Peeps fixation. Me, not so much.

Maroot

I remember as a kid putting them in the microwave and watching them explode, or making them gooey then combining them to make a giant mega-peep.
