I've never had Peeps in this color before! This lively orange (along with grass-green) is a new addition to the traditional spectrum of these adorable, classic, irresistible, and utterly inedible-looking quasi-foodstuffs. I was intrigued by these guys as I inhaled them; how did Just Born Inc. know that tic-tac orange and kelly green are my two favorite colors*, and that I'd never thought to eat a marshmallowey sweet that looks vaguely like vomit or vegetables? They certainly look unique, unlike their snooty pastel-colored brethren. Look at that misshapen eye! What's not to love?!Add to this my love of wasting time watching people microwave Peeps on YouTube, and I was all set.
Then an unconscious tug of memory washed over me (it's standard with a post-Peeps gorging). Why was I so intrigued by the traffic-cone orangeness of this particular package of Peeps?
*actually, these are my favorite colors! go figure.
