I liked this Food Meme that Xenia Katie has on her blog, so I thought I’d play along. Take the letters of your name and add a food-related factoid for each one.
M – Marshmallow Peeps. Here’s my biggest food confession – my absolute, favorite, top spot food are these sugar upon sugar confections. I have to admit, though, while I will gladly eat ones that are given to me year round, I’m quite the Peep purist, and prefer to only have them at Pascha time. And, this year, I learned that Ced doesn’t like them, so I got two packages. Xavy, however, is like me and inhales them.
I – Ice Cream. It’s nice. It’s not my favorite dessert, but I won’t pass it up. I’m not a fan of chocolate flavored items, so chocolate ice cream isn’t my cup of tea. My favorite is Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough, though.
M – Mushrooms. Eh, I don’t eat fungus. But, we are growing quite the crop this year, I think it’s because it was a cool summer and now we’ve gotten a lot of rain.
I – It’s hard to come up with a second “I” food, but I decided on Iceberg Lettuce. Growing up, it was all I ever ate, and it was ok. But now that I have so many choices, I love a good salad and yummy greens.

Iceberg lettuce. Interesting choice, Mimi. Funny, though, it was all I ever knew salad was when I was young, too, and now I buy all the different things I can get my hand on.
Oh, and peeps in the microwave is the funniest thing, ever.
My dh loves peeps! BTW, how do you know a mushroom is edible?
I only trust the professionals, I'd never pick a mushroom and eat it - the danger is too high, Esther. Your Dh is a wise man :)
Tatiana - yes, Ced does that every time we have Peeps with the microwave. Grin.
OMG! Peeps in the microwave? That's SO freakin' cool! I'd rather blow 'em up than eat 'em anyway!
I'm with Ced and don't like Peeps either. In fact, I'm always quite surprised by people who are crazy over them. I do like Malt-balls in my Pascha basket though :)
Oh we love peeps too! Although we've never put them in the microwave. I think I might try this meme on my site. :)
Iceberg....LOL!
I love peeps too, it's an addiction.
Peeps are made right here where I live on the east coast. When you visit Just Born at Easter, you get packages for free.
I like to pop the cellophane wrapper and let them get hard then eat them!
Microwave? Hmm...hadn't thought of that.
ooooh fun!!! i'm going to have to borrow this.
i also love peeps. do you like them fresh or stale? i prefer them stale.
Ever see the Seattle Times Peeps contests? http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/living/2003653399_peeps08.html

Oooooh! Another meme! Mind if I steal it for my blog?
Mimi
I never knew you were a "peep" lover! I bet you are thrilled that they have come out with different holiday peeps now. :) too fun!
But don't you think that there is a time and a place for iceberg lettuce? Sounds like an essay to me. But don't you think iceberg is so much better on a hamburger?
I'm with debd. I don't like Peeps but I do like malted milk balls (Robins' Eggs) at Easter time.
