Easter candy is, obviously, full of garbage ingredients.
🐤Here’s what’s in Peeps, for instance: SUGAR, CORN SYRUP, GELATIN, YELLOW 5, POTASSIUM SORBATE, NATURAL FLAVORS, CARNAUBA WAX.
🪺Here’s what’s in Cadbury mini eggs: sugar, cocoa butter, skim milk, chocolate, lactose, milk fat, soy lecithin, polyglycerol polyricinoleate, cornstarch, gum acacia, corn syrup, artificial colors (Yellow 5, Yellow 6 Lake, Blue 2 Lake, Blue 2, Red 40), and artificial flavors
The options I’m suggesting here are not Good Stuff if you’re talking about an everyday snack; they’ve got lots of sugar, some of them have seed oils, most of them contain natural flavors. But they are still sooo much better than “real” Easter candy (as my kids call it!).
Anything I missed?
