What Some Would Call Lies » This is the one where I say, ‘Give Peeps A Chance.’

This is the one where I say, ‘Give Peeps A Chance.’

Anyone who knows me well knows that I absolutely love Peeps. Love.

When I was diagnosed as a diabetic, the second thing that came to my mind was, “does that mean no more Peeps?” (The first thing I thought was, “kick-ass, maybe I can get a free meter from Liberty Mutual.”)

My first Halloween was tough (read here), Christmas wasn’t too easy either. And do you know how tough it was to avoid conversation hearts this February? But the greatest test of my will power is approaching…Easter.

I walked into the grocery store yesterday and saw the Easter candy aisle, and I couldn’t help but walk down it to see if there were any variations on the traditional Peep. (Does anyone remember Christmas Tree Peeps or the lesser known Pumpkin Peeps?)

I googled it and found a Peep made of Splenda, but its way over priced. And I’m a strong man that does not need to cave into a dependency on some mass-produced piece of candy.
