This came to be known as the Boston Peep Party. The great Peep famine in Ireland during the 1800's brought thousands of immigrants to this country in search of their prized confection. Prohibition of Peeps in the 20's and 30's saw the opening of thousands of Peepeasies so the addicted could still indulge in the consumption of this forbidden treat. The fifties brought a new interest in Peeps as a biological weapon to be used to stop the spread of communism. These protests created a new awareness and acceptance of Peeps and Peep eaters.
Peeps now occupy their rightful place in society.
The answer is simple. Peeps are secretly thought to be a powerful aphrodisiac, alledgedly causing uncontrollable sexual urges. The fact of the matter is, that while clinical studies have shown that Peeps do increase libido, when taken in moderation they are completely harmless. For those who can not control these urges it is recommended that they consume only the blue ones or seek counseling with their local PEA, Peep Eaters Anonymous. I hope you have found this informative and enlightening and will continue to promote Peeps and their careful consumption.
