You really need to contact their marketing department and tell them this year was a missed opportunity, but Easter is a yearly event.

[–] Ghostalmedia@lemmy.world 10 points 8 months ago

Fuck it. I’m curious and I’m buying them.

I’ma do what I want.

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 9 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I don't particularly like Peeps but I would try one of these.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 5 points 8 months ago

I'm guessing you'd stop at one.

[–] Assman@sh.itjust.works 9 points 8 months ago

This is why Jesus don't come back

[–] JCreazy@midwest.social 7 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Well thanks. Now I'm going to have to look for these in the store

[–] CoffeeJunkie@lemmy.world 5 points 8 months ago

If you try them, they're really not too bad. They did a good job.

[–] babyfarmer@lemmy.world 4 points 8 months ago

Easter candy is easily the best seasonal candy of the year.

But this? This is a crime.

[–] popekingjoe@lemmy.world 4 points 8 months ago

They're surprisingly good. I stopped liking peeps a long time ago, but these are very good.

[–] OpenStars@startrek.website 4 points 8 months ago (1 children)

God: "How dare you!?"

You: "Yeah but... this thing."

God: "Oh. Yeah. Good point, I guess. Carry on then."

Can I thank him for the cancer in babies before he leaves?

[–] OpenStars@startrek.website 2 points 8 months ago

Sure, go for it.:-)

Never realized these aren't all that high calorie. I need to stop feeling so guilty after eating a couple packs of these.

[–] LordOfTheChia@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) (1 children)

Bet you could eat a hundred of them.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago

The absolute upper limit on the number of Peeps I can eat before I go into a diabetic coma is two.

And I'm sure as hell not wasting my two on Dr. Pepper Peeps.

[–] Alteon@lemmy.world -4 points 8 months ago (1 children)

They still contain Red Dye 3. At least until Easter is over. So....heads up. I'd stay away until then.

Shit is is super carcinogenic.

[–] JCreazy@midwest.social 4 points 8 months ago (1 children)

After your comment, I looked it up and there is very little information about red dye 3 causing cancer. The only thing that I found was it caused cancer in extremely high doses in lab rats, which means absolutely nothing if there has been no studies on humans. Also, these peeps do not contain red dye 3. They contain Red Lake 40 which is apparently safer than Red 3.

[–] Alteon@lemmy.world -2 points 8 months ago

It's banned in cosmetics and declared by the FDA to be carcinogenic. I'd rather not take my chances with anything containing it.

Good to hear these peeps don't have it. I think the pink ones still do though.

[–] tomi000@lemmy.world 3 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I think its called 'in hindsight'

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 5 points 8 months ago (1 children)

If you like, but they mean the same thing.

[–] tomi000@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Oh is it used like that too? My bad then, Im not a native speaker, just sounded wrong to me.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago

No worries. It's not like even a native speaker would necessarily know that and there are plenty of non-native speakers here.

[–] altima_neo@lemmy.zip 3 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Last year they had Hot Tamales peeps. They were terrible.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 0 points 8 months ago

I imagine, but how could they not be terrible?

[–] Aviandelight@mander.xyz 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Maybe I'm just getting old, but these "special" flavors are just ridiculous. There is nothing wrong with regular old peeps. You want extreme peeps? Go play Pudgy Bunny and try not to choke; no special flavors required.

[–] JCreazy@midwest.social 8 points 8 months ago (1 children)

If you're old then you should know that you are not obligated to purchase these and that them existing does not affect you whatsoever.

Lol age doesn't equal wisdom.
