Has anybody ever look at Peeps and thought they were healthy? They looks like some kind of industrial insulation or industrial packing material that was ban in the 70s.

Its a race between the cancer from the dye, and the diabetes from all the sugar.

I’ve enjoyed Peeps for decades.

Still here.

And healthy.

Peeps are a national treasure. So what if they have carcinogens. Remember Sweet n Low? Tab diet soda? Smoking? Guns?

Long live these great American products, and anyone slandering them is a commie.

Is the author of this article also concerned about the chemical castration of children?

I never liked them, even as a kid in the 50’s.

Red Dye #3 — also known as erythrosine or FD&C Red No. 3 — in cosmetics and externally applied drugs, based on its analysis of unpublished animal research suggesting a link to thyroid cancer. But the agency still allows its use in thousands of foods, dietary supplements and ingested drugs.

Unpublished.

The real question is why anyone has ever looked at them or tried them and thought they were tasty - they’re like dried out, stale meringue.

It’s not a real chick.

I don’t really care, they are fun for the kids, I don’t eat them.

Mom! Peeps just don't taste the same without cancer-causing dye!

I’m still waiting for tattoo ink to be found carcinogenic.
