Monster PEEPS

Jay introduced our children to the delights of Monster PEEPS long ago.  It must have been a rite of passage while he was growing up.  Instructions are pretty simple:  Every April, buy a box of your choice of Peeps (purple, pink etc.  We tend to go with the classic/traditional yellow, because we are a classic/traditional family.  But not yellow.)  I do wonder if yellow doesn’t have a more mellow flavor . . . ?

Then, microwave and watch the hilarious contortions the little chick makes.  This is especially funny if you’re an eight year old cub scout, or a cub scout leader/mother deprived of her 7- 8 hours sleep. (yawn)

One chick has obviously already had a run in with aforementioned cub scout.

The best part.

Wouldn't it be fun to visit the Peeps factory?  I wonder if they give tours.
