Wow, I had no idea that the history of Easter candies went back that far. 27 hours just to make one peep? That's incredible that the women would even continue to make them if it took them that long. Peep are by far my favorite Easter candy, but I do love to indulge in chocolate bunnies also.

That is crazy taking that long just to make one. I would loose interest. My personal opinion i hate peeps! I am so sick of them cause i think they have been around too long.

Peeps, in my opinion, are nasty. I think it's really interesting that it takes 27 hours just to make one. I don't think we will ever stop making peeps. I do LOVE chocolate, though!

Peeps are my favorite candy, and of course jelly beans follow. Chocolate is not such a favorite, but i do enjoy indulging in it every once in a great while. But jelly beans are something i eat constantly. It's a habit what can I say.
