One thing that I would ALWAYS get in my Easter basket was this mini egg crate, filled with egg-shaped bubble gum. It was so incredibly random, and to this day, I still wonder where my mom bought those things. I’ve never actually seen them in a store… ever.
Found a picture!
.. except the cartons weren't clear - my brother would always get the solid blue carton, I would get the pink. And the label was different. I couldn't tell you what the label looked like, but if I saw it today, I'm sure I'd recognize it immediately.
And btw... Cadbury creme eggs rule. Peeps are disgusting.
And I’m not a big chocolate fan, so I usually just eat the top off of the Cadbury eggs, then lick out all of the cream filling (no inappropriate jokes, please!)
I'm reminded of a quote by the comedian Lewis Black:
"Candy Corn is the only candy in the history of America that's never been advertised. And there's a reason. All of the candy corn that was ever made was made in 1911."
I think this applies to Peeps, as well.
