Cadbury Eggs vs. Peeps: Patch Readers Settle The Age-Old Debate

Leave your carrots for the Bunny—Easter is a holiday for the sweet-toothed.

Americans are expected to spend more than $2 billion this year just on Easter candy alone, according to the National Retail Federation.

Among the endless Easter sweets popping up on store shelves, there are two that undoubtedly remain at the top: Cadbury Creme Eggs and Peeps. With Easter soon approaching, we had to revisit the age-old debate: which one is better?

Although a seemingly simple question, the answer may never be known.

We put the question to Patch Facebook fans, filled with impassioned Easter candy lovers—and fierce opposers—to weigh in on the debate.

The result: Cadbury Creme Eggs take the win!

Here's what some readers had to say:

• Mark C. said, “Reece's peanut butter eggs”

• Crystal N. said, “Both in my house”

• Jean C. said, “I’m not a fan of either!”

Now, which part of the chocolate Easter bunny should be eaten first? We'll save that debate for next year.
