When we first heard about Peeps Oreos, we were totally intrigued about how they would taste (natch), and whether or not they’d become a new seasonal hit. But we NEVER anticipated the kind of reaction (or rather, the result) that’s being reported post-consumption. Snackers have revealed that after indulging in the sweet(er) take on the classic cookie, something weird, and frankly, kinda nasty, is occurring.

Those enjoying just a cookie (or two!) might not immediately notice anything amiss. But should you partake in more than that (or, like, an entire package in one guilt-free sitting), you may begin to see a rather alarming result. The peeps can turn your tongue pink… and that’s not the worst part. As folks are reporting over on Twitter, it’s also turning their feces a shocking shade of fuschia.

Okay, EW! But not to worry: Charmin has your, er, backside…

Happy Easter?
