Peeps

Tasty marshmallow goodness, or crack for sugar addicted children?  Or both?

So, Easter is coming, and Peeps have made their way to the store shelves (well, been there, I try to ignore them).  It got me thinking about the odd things people eat.  The things people secretly enjoy, but refuse to admit.  Or the things that they eat, so that they fit in.

It's one of those odd little character traits, what we eat.  In our society we have available to us nearly every delicacy that you can imagine, and everyone has things that they favor, that others may find odd, or even disgusting.  Some of you no doubt like pocky, others probably have no idea what it is.  Or, maybe you have secret stash of Turkish Delight hidden in your office desk.

It's something, however, that I frequently find lacking in writing.  I've read novels, in fact, that completely skipped over the fact that people eat!  So, I want you to choose a character you're working with, and tell us what his secretly loved food is.
