Peep Show

For as long as I can remember, I have been a huge Peep fan. I love those little boogers. I like to open them and let them sit out for a few days and then eat them when they are at their crunchchewiest. I can eat all colors and shapes..well, except Chocolate. I saw those for the first time last week at Target and I was not impressed. I am not a big chocolate fan anyway, so eating it in mashmallow form doesn't make it any more appealing. I am the only person in my house who eats them, so when they come in they are all mine. I purposely buy them for my daughter's Easter basket just so I can take them off of her hands. They used to be an innocent sugar rush..a seasonal treat I could depend on and not feel bad about eating. Lately, though, I have noticed a trend in Peeps that I am not sure I can digest. They have a darker side..see here:

WTF? Come on now. There are just so many things wrong with this picture. The first thing that hits me is the fact that I had never assigned a sex to my Peeps. Who knew that the *Chicks* were boys and the *Bunnies* were girls? Of course, this could be an all male review in which case the *chicks* would be chicks and the *bunnies* boys, but either damn way it's weird. The second thing I find disturbing is the fact that the bunny on the pole is VERY good. I mean, she has some height on that pole. It may look easy, but getting that kind of height with no arms and a marshmallow crotch ain't easy folks. Lastly..does anyone but me think that this whole scene look like its being done in someone's basement? And where do they spend those little dollars? I have questions...does Radio Shack have my answers? I think I'll call! :o)
