Just in time for the Easter season, the popular seasonal candy Peeps has teamed up with the soda-pop giant Pepsi to create obscure flavors.

According to the companies, they have developed a new flavor of cola dubbed “Pepsi x Peeps.” It mixes the classic taste of Pepsi with the “pillowy-soft and sweet” marshmallow flavor of Peeps, says a CNN Business report.

[This is an] ideal accessory and thirst quencher for springtime.

This is the first time Pepsi has created a marshmallow-flavored beverage. Last year Pepsi released apple pie and hot chocolate flavors to celebrate the holidays.

However this product cannot be purchased in stores. It is part of the #HangingWithMyPEEPS contest where 3,000 packages will be given away. The winners use ‘that hashtag and tags Pepsi on Instagram and Twitter showing their spring celebrations, will receive a package containing three 7.5-ounce mini-cans in bright yellow, pink and blue colors,’ says the CNN report.

Taste is really important to customers. They want sweet and they want to connect to things emotionally. Peeps has its own subculture we wanted to tap into.

Kaplan said this combination was designed to add a “moment of joy” after a rough 2020.

Kaplan says there could be a possibility that they are sold to the public if there is demand for it.

These limited time offers is a way to engage our core fans and give them fun things to embrace.


AUTHOR COMMENTARY

[28] And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; [29] Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers, [30] Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, [31] Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful: [32] Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.

Romans 1:28-32
[3] The wicked are estranged from the womb: they go astray as soon as they be born, speaking lies. [4] Their poison is like the poison of a serpent: they are like the deaf adder that stoppeth her ear; [5] Which will not hearken to the voice of charmers, charming never so wisely.

Psalm 58:3-5

I have not had a Pepsi or a package of Peeps in many-many years. Both of them taste horrible and are terrible for your health. Combine the two and you got yourself a death wish. I cannot even imagine drinking this. I have not touched these abominations in years, and I am far more healthy and in good shape.
