Easter Candy is Evil

Cadbury eggs in any form, caramel preferred.

Sugar eggs with the scenes inside. Jelly beans.

Et tu, Snow?

These are my downfall. I don't even really like candy, but Robin's Eggs are so completely addictive. One year I bought a huge bag from Costco, and I ate the whole thing. (Not at one sitting, though- took a good week or so).

Peeps: Gross to eat but have redeeming misuse features.
Cadbury Eggs: Loved them as a kid and had one three years ago; candidate for most vile thing ever in my mouth.
Jelly Beans: Gross in all forms and flavors (texture thing)
Robin's Eggs: Yum
Reese's Peanut Butter Eggs: Certainly acceptable but the chocolate to "peanut butter" ratio is off from the more ideal regular cups.

Le Sigh, y-e-s. Stopped at Safeway this morning on the way to work, picked up my salad for lunch and then at the check out damned cute impulse purchase (mini carton of the robin eggs). Now the question is, can I hold out until after lunch before I crack it open and will I be good and share? I should cause these are certainly not on my diet!

This will help me abstain, a little while, at least.

24 pieces is, actually, a fairly good size serving. That is, unless you do eat an entire bag in one sitting.
