There's a peeps store in Mall of America. The chocolate covered ones are actually pretty good.

Hmm, I would try that. Would prolly taste something like a moon pie?

[2dimes]

Well, not really. There's no peeps or chocolate in moon pies.

[Funkyterrance]

Oh yeah the moon pies are the yellow ones? I get them confused...
Whats the things that are like graham cracker, marshmallow and fake chocolate?

[2dimes]

Wagon wheels. There's probably some sort of American thing like them called "moon pies" but we were talking about the oriental ones recently here.

Here you go. http://moonpie.com/
So I've never seen these in real life, don't know if they taste like the chocolate covered peeps. I can't get those here either.

I have no idea where you are 2dimes other than by the drummer...
If I were to describe the flavor of moonpies I would say... sweet cardboard? They're super cheap though, I think maybe 10 for a dollor or something like that.
