minus-squareDiddlydee@feddit.uklinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·2 months agoWhat on earth are peeps? I’d wager it they’re American sweets they taste like shite, like practically all US sweets.

minus-squareaiden@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up0·2 months agoI didn’t think anybody actually eats more than one or two from the pack. Then they just sit on the counter for 2 weeks and get thrown away
minus-squareouRKaoS@lemmy.todaylinkfedilinkarrow-up0·2 months agoPeeps donnot get thrown away for being stale… I know people that open the package then leave it in a cabinet for weeks, because they like them “crunchy” 🫤
