Frozen Peeps and Cadbury eggs! Yummmm.

Without a doubt, Cadbury Mini Eggs. They're like crack!

The longest a bag has lasted me has been 3 days. :o I figure I need to eat them all right away so they're no longer in my cupboard, taunting me with their creamy, crunchy chocolatey goodness.

They're also a main reason for my hiatus from WW during March!

Cadbury Cream Eggs and Peeps. :)

Jelly Bellys... the only Jellybeans I know used to be sported by airplanes of the now-defunct Braniff International Airlines! :) (Ask DeltAlum or Tom Earp about 'em! ;))

I like the eggs. And unlike you people I buy like 4 at a time every time I'm in Wallgreens or CVS. When Easter is over and there is a sale on that candy, rest assured I will buy all the ones that don't look dinged up with the foil covering missing.

Peeps are disgusting! So are cadburies and jelly beans.

I'll just stick to decorated boiled eggs w/out yolk.

I'm a big Peeps fan. Course now they have "Peeps" for just about every holiday, which is a good way to get the Peeps fix more often, but also a way for the novelty to wear off. :(

I'm also ALL ABOUT the Reese's Peanut Butter Eggs. Now, I know it's basically a Reese's PB Cup, but the ratio of peanut butter to chocolate is different, and soooooooo good!!

Now I need to go get some!!

My favorite is called "Piknik". You can only get it in Slovakia or in Czech/Slovak stores. It comes in a tube like toothpaste. I remember being in 2nd grade and bringing it to school with me and all the kids thought i was eating aquafresh toothpaste. It comes out just like tooth paste but it's a white/creamy color and is pure sugar. My mom was in Chicago recently and went to some little area where its all Slovakian stores and bought a crap load for me and my brother.....about a month ago I was laying in bed with my GF when we woke up on a sunday morning....I squirted some of it in my mouth and hers....next thing we know we're bouncing off of walls and cleaning everything in the apt.

I like chocolate bunnies, not the hallow kind. I like solid milk chocolate Easter bunnies. When I was little, I used to eat the head last because I felt bad for the bunny. I saw chocolate bunnies in the supermarket and it took all of my self-control not to buy it.

I'm not a Peeps fan, but I do love Cadburry Eggs. Yummy. My favorite is the Reese Peanut Butter Eggs. PsychTau, you are totally right with your statement about the ratio of PB to chocolate being different. Can't wait to get my Easter basket with my goodies!!!! (Yes, I still get an Easter basket at my age!)

I am adding myself to the Peeps list!

The thing is that, being a diabetic, I can't have them all that often. But I make an exception around this time.

The worst is when your relatives start buying you sugar free candy. SF Jelly Beans taste like plastic. I don't recommend them to anyone.

I am totally with you!!! Peeps are just not for me. I hate marshmellow in any form except when it's been charred over a fire, then it's yummy. :D

I have a huge weakness for Cadbury Caramel eggs and Cadbury mini eggs. YUMMMMMM!!!

Too bad I am on a diet. :(

Oh well my birthday is the day before Easter so maybe I'll splurge and eat some Easter candy as a birthday present to myself. :D

I like everything :D

The Cadbury cream eggs are nasty, but I love the Cadbury mini eggs - the chocolate ones with the chalk-like shells. I wish they made them all year!

Oh, and I don't know if anyone already said this because I didn't read the whole thing, but it is LOTS of fun to put Peeps in the microwave and watch them explode! (Their not worth eating so you may as well do something with them.)
