The internet is feuding over whether Peeps are good Easter candy
Easter is just around the corner, which means you can now eat Easter candy! Although this should be a good thing, the internet is feuding over Peeps. Is it a good Easter candy or not?
You might be a major Peeps fan or hate them with a fiery passion. No matter what your opinion on the treats, you’re not alone. In fact, there are a LOT of people weighing in on Twitter about it.
While, we definitely consider Peeps a go-to Easter basket item, we’re not sure they’re candy. Yes, they are covered in sugar and you can’t just eat one, but they are marshmallows, right?
Ugh, okay they are candy, we admit it.
But does that automatically make them delicious? People have strong opinions either way.
After one Twitter user posted a sassy Peeps trash can photo, the debate began to quickly take over.

It pretty much snowballed after this, and we can see why.
When it comes to this fluffy candy, you obviously either love it or you hate it. There is no in between.
Easter candy is the best candy genre and Peeps are a disgrace to the entire season. https://t.co/fBz55yQBgI

Then there are others who stood their ground and fought for the neon-colored candies.
I'm having Peeps and coffee for breakfast. Fight me if you want, but you'll get pink and yellow marshmallow in your hair.

LOL, this is just too funny. We love the idea of Peeps for breakfast. If you like candy, you understand the appeal of candy for breakfast.
As for more people who are fans of the candy, they came out in droves to support it.
First y'all slander candy corn now y'all slander peeps. I'm insulted and mad.

Okay, so this isn’t an official vote by any means, but clearly the internet is split. But with Easter only a few weeks away, you need to choose a side.
