Organic Peeps are for the birds
April 8, 2007 – 5:07 am
Some things simply aren’t meant to be organic. Twinkies, Ding dongs, hot dogs, and yes… Peeps. If it’s not hardened marshmallow surrounded by an unnaturally loud yellow, pink, or blue sugar crust, it’s not a Peep.
Which is why I am announcing to the world, loud and proud, that I will NOT be making, buying, ordering on the Internet, or otherwise serving Organic Peeps this Easter, or any Easter in the foreseeable future. It’s a matter of principle.
My child is going to be raised up RIGHT with the good-old, non-digestible, stick-in-your-stomach-for-years, taste-like-cardboard, dye-your-mouth-yellow Peeps. We value tradition in this house.

I didn’t even know they made organic Peeps. They can’t taste good!

They can’t be as bad as the sugar-free Peeps. Yuck!

I don’t like Peeps. Organic or fertilized.

I agree, that just does not even SEEM RIGHT!
I don’t even like Peeps in the first place, but something about Organic Peeps makes me want to run screaming! LOL!

I am a peep purist. It’s got to be the yellow chicks. And they’re best eaten after they’ve gotten stale and chewy. None of these new-fangled colors or characters, no fluffy marshmallow. The longer it sits out the better!

I’m not a big peep fan myself. It’s peanut butter cups all the way baby!

Not a fan of peeps at all. But seriously, if you’re gonna have a peep, you might as well have the real thing!

I think it’s a good alternative.
not sure how they’d taste, but really can’t be worse than the real thing right?
