LOL... stale food DOES sound odd. When Peeps are fresh, they are just too sickeningly sweet (and gooey). When they are stale, they take on a mellower flavor, and a much better texture.Quote:

And I don't know if I'd call it stale --- just not as fresh! :D I usually buy a pack, rip the cellophane and let them sit exposed to the air overnight. The next day they are PERFECT.
I haven't eaten one in years..... I think I'll have to pick some up when I go out today, I'll eat a fresh one, then I'll let them sit out for a while, then I'll eat a stale one, THEN I'll vote!!:D :p
fresh and that's it. I cannot stand stale things especially those :p
I thought the necco candy company shipped peeps to every corner of the world. I didn't know there were sooo many people who didn't know what peeps are. I guess I learned something new. Go stale peeps!
i guess i vote dont care as i havent had them unless i can just vote em as normal marshmallows hahahaha u yanks haha u got some strange food i mean wot r twinkys some tried to explain but to me they just sound like cream cakes
I NEVER eat them unless theyv'e been sitting out all night, but I LOVE them that way! I never knew so many people really hated them!
I HATE those icky things
Ick... :p :p
Fresh. And in all honesty I think I can only eat one a year. :rolleyes: :o :D
Peeps are VILE!!!:D :p
This thread is so funny!
I looooove Peeps! I love them fresh, stale, anyway. They are delisious!!!! :D
I LOVE THEM, ESPECIALLY TOASTED!:D
I really do not like them..I can't stand them!:eek:
Oh, this thread has me very upset..........;)
None of you know how to eat a peep. They need to be AGED.
Just the same way that you would age a fine cheese or wine.
They need to sit for several weeks until they develop a crust!
(now that ought to gross you out:D )
Then you sit down and very slowly enjoy every single sugar morsel and the incredible chewiness of the marshmallow.
Mmmmm................
Harrumph! - microwave a peep............absolutely beyond disgusting.:D :D :D
Why now that you point that out... you are right! From now on I'll politely remind my family that my Peeps are Aged and not Stale! :DQuote:

Thanks for making the distinction! :D :D
This brought back memories...my mother...may she rest in peace had to bring packages and packages of those disgusting things over to my kids every easter. It was funny because my daughter called them chicken pocks! I can't remember why....
