My mom loves them, and every year I would get a ton of them in my Easter basket, and every year I'd say "Mom, I don't like Peeps," and she'd say "Really? I thought you loved them." Every damned year. And then she'd eat them. A few years back just before Easter, I related to a friend of mine the Endless Cavalcade of Unwanted Peeps that was my childhood. Just days later I happened to be in a grocery store with said friend and my Mom at the same time, and I said to my friend "watch this" and then pointed to the Peeps display and said "Mom, what do I think of Peeps?" She looked at me, started giggling uncontrollably, and said "Don't you like them? I thought you liked them!" sigh At least we both like black jelly beans. She was never able to eat all my black jelly beans, though it wasn't from lack of trying.
