As I am from England, this post was going right over my head. I had to "google" peeps to find out what they were!! :D

I haven't had a single Peep yet this season, but dammit, I'm going to Target and getting some as soon as I get out of work. Am I the only one that likes mine slightly stale?

Well not exactly craft beer, but it is the Easter season and all the "peeps" know that Rolling Rock is the official beer of Easter

Nope. My wife will leave them out on the counter for a couple of days unwrapped until they are good and stiff. :wink:

Oh yes! Dry aging greatly improves a Peep!

And smelly too I bet. Are their little feathers any easier to pluck when they are "stiff" ?

May I suggest a Peep-ka-bob? And for dessert set your peeps free in a lovely chocolate fondue. Mmmm, skewered peeps no matter how you slice them. I would partner with a She Devil craft beer for the ultimate good vs EEEvil. Maybe a Cadbury egg as an appetizer or for a final chaser. It always comes down to the age old question, the chicken or the egg.

Leftover Peeps + fire + graham crackers + chocolate = Smeeps

Did this last year with the extended family 'younguns' during a weekend stayover and they were remarkably good, if horrifyingly sweet. Toast the Peeps on a stick over fire like a marshmallow and combine into a smore.

I officially "suspend" the vegetarian rules for Peeps. Its allowed. Page 146, Paragraph B, Section 27, Subsection iii of the Vegetarian Handbook.



Yeah those are rules ratified by the same sect that think honey is NOT vegan.
I am the original Mike G, never mind the impostor.

I am kind of a big deal.
