I like them when they get all hard and crusty and really chewy. I suppose it's a good thing because they're a lot cheaper after the holidays. As for toasting a Peep, it's VERY easy to catch them on fire because of the sugar crust and also very easy to burn yourself on the molten, bubbly sugar because it's so sticky.

The picture of the bandaged separated quintuplets is just priceless. I'll have to try roasting a Peep sometime... I can't really decide if the sugar coating would be a good or a bad thing. My mom thinks I like Peeps for some reason (I guess because I love every other marshmallow thing ever invented) so I tend to have some of the insipid things lying around. <strong>RESPONSE:</strong> Glad you like the Peep Research link! You're right - that pic is much better - so I switched the pic in the post. --Brian OMG, Peep Research is hilarious! The picture of the bandaged separated quintuplets is just priceless.
