'Tis the season for marshmallow Peeps. Manufacturer of the sugary chicks and bunnies, Just Born, whips up nearly 700 million Peeps annually. The company claims that the Easter treats, which were created in the 1950s, are the most popular nonchocolate candy in America today. Given the hundreds of articles, posts and Peep contests of late, it's obvious that "Peep love runs deep."
