Aging Peeps

By Doug Winters

Aging Peeps? I couldn’t believe it either, but my local exotic food authority, Brian Glass, assures me I’ve been missing out on a little known food delicacy featuring Peeps. (I almost hesitate to share it, wondering what it might do to his sky-high healthy food blog editorship. Dangerous living has its attractions, I suppose. Here goes.) It requires a simple knife slit and patience. Slit open the Peeps packaging. Allow air to circulate freely. And wait. And wait. 2 weeks for those who are weak of will. 4 weeks for those who know that patience is a virtue and will be rewarded.

Ahh, but what about those of you who suspect Peeps and fine wines might have something in common? This sounds bizzare, and I am not making this up. Brian has a Peeps that he’s been aging for over 5 years. That’s like 74 Peeps years. And he’s willing to ditch his pacifistic ways if someone plots anything funny with it.

No kidding,  I’m heading to the store tomorrow right after church and stocking up my own Peeps aging cellar.
