Here’s how to make marshmallow treats shaped like the poop emoji
Just in time for Easter, the time of year when 2.4 billion Christians celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ, New York food blogger and photographer Matthew Cetta has revealed the recipe for Poop Peeps, i.e., homemade marshmallow treats designed to look like the poop emoji, complete with googly eyes and ingratiating smiles. At last, those left unsatisfied by Peeps shaped like bunnies and chicks have another option open to them, one that acknowledges the importance of the emoji in modern life. And nothing says “he is risen” quite like symbolic coprophagy. Over at his blog, Nomageddon, Cetta provides step-by-step instructions (laden with poop puns, for example: “Takin’ the Browns to the Super Bowl”) as well as numerous, artfully composed photographs of the process and the finished product. “All you need,” Cetta insists, “is sugar, gelatin, and food dye.”
