Rice Krispy Peeps - Walmart




Has it always been, "Rice Krispies Treats?" The dual pluralization feels wrong to me. 

Actually, I don't think I've ever purchased the name-brand cereal or the official treats. I always used store branded cereal to make them at home, and since the no-frills boxes always call them, "Marshmallow Treats," or "Marshmallow Squares," I've always called them, "Rice Krispy Treats." I guess that's wrong? 

Whatever you call them, I make them quite often. (I've mentioned this before, but I have a little cousin with a gluten and dairy allergy, and if I swap the butter out for an alternative, they make for an easy allergy-free snack!) So when I saw these Peeps, which are also gluten-free, I actually let myself get excited.
