icehousebob Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 I have to warn you about a food danger that my daughter recently encountered. She came home from work and found that she could not exist without a s'more. She had chocolate and graham crackers but no marshmallows. But she (light bulb above head) had Easter Peeps, which are made of marshmallow. She needed a flame to toast it but she has an electric range, so(bigger light bulb above head) she would use the propane torch.Keep in mind that this young woman is intelligent has a medical degree. She lit it with the flame toward her and put the Peep to the flame. Peeps are covered with fine sugar and it flared up, burning off the middle of her right eyebrow. So, for work the next day, she colored in an eyebrow with a pen, not unlike Groucho Marx's moustache. Everyone was looking at her strangely and she made the mistake of telling them the truth rather than telling them she got it by rescuing a puppy from a raging fire. Now, she has no option but to change her name and move out of state and get a job at a fast food resturant. Peeps should have a warning on the label, don't you think??

Tom Linderholm Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 Sorry about your daughter's mishap! I can certainly see how that could happen with the peep's. I think warning should probably go on the propane torch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IFallsRon Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 I could see my kid doing that only borrowing hair from another body area and using the crazy glue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously, thanks for the warning.Main point might be if you are going to torch the peeps, keep them away from your peeps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandmannd Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 Yep, sugar burns good and hot. Sorry about that, easy accident to do. Hope she's fine. If she gets away with just some hurt pride, that ain't too bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
