Peeps are an abomination. They are abnormal. I think they might be a science experiment gone very, very wrong.

MARSHMALLOW PEEPSÃ‚® Fun Facts

* It would take approximately 9,000 vertical PEEPSÃ‚® to equal the height of the tallest building in the world, Taipei 101 in Taiwan.

* It would take approximately 8,000 vertical PEEPSÃ‚® to equal the height of the tallest building in North America, Sears Tower in Chicago.

In 1953, it took 27 hours to create one Marshmallow Peep. Today, it takes six minutes.

During their early years, MARSHMALLOW PEEPSÃ‚® were squeezed one at a time out of a pastry tube and the eyes were painted on by hand. Now, technology can create 3,800 PeepsÃ‚® eyes per minute.

As many as 4.2 million MARSHMALLOW PEEPSÃ‚®, Bunnies, and other shapes are made each day at Just Born's Bethlehem, Pennsylvania factory.

This Easter, Just Born estimated that more than 700 million MARSHMALLOW PEEPSÃ‚® and Bunnies were consumed by men, women, and children throughout the United States and abroad.

People like to do curious things with PEEPSÃ‚®- eat them stale, freeze them, and use them as a pizza topping.

PEEPSÃ‚® Chicks and Bunnies come in 5 colors. Yellow Chicks are the most popular, followed by pink, lavender, blue, and white.

Each Peep has 32 calories (160 calories per five-chick serving) and 0 fat grams.

PEEPSÃ‚® are always in season! Just Born manufactures seasonal PEEPSÃ‚® shapes for Valentine's Day- Pink, Red Strawberry and White Vanilla Hearts, Summer- PEEPSÃ‚® Stars, Halloween- Spooky Cats, Pumpkins, Ghosts and Cocoa Cats; and Christmas-Trees, Snowmen, and Cutouts.

Today, Just Born is America's largest manufacturer of seasonal marshmallow confections, with PEEPSÃ‚® hailing as the top selling non-chocolate Easter candy brand for the last decade. PEEPSÃ‚® marshmallow candies even outsell jellybeans.

According to the Golden Anniversary SurveyÃ¢â‚¬¦Chicks are still the favored PEEPSÃ‚® shape followed by Bunnies and Snowmen; fans tend to eat 1-5 PEEPSÃ‚® in a sitting and the most popular way to eat them is fresh.

Last year two PEEPSÃ‚® Fun Buses traveled 60,000 miles, had 172,000 PEEPSÃ‚® Fans take a tour of the bus and gave out approximately 500,000 individual PEEPSÃ‚® samples!
