Ears First or Feet First?

Since we’re coming up the Easter weekend, we thought we’d share a great post from the Air Doctor Heating & Air Conditioning blog about those chocolate rabbits & how you eat them!

It’s hard to believe that we’re already nearing April & that we’re now talking about Egg Hunts & Chocolate bunnies.

Yes, this weekend brings Easter, and no doubt you’ll be digging into your kid’s Easter baskets to root around for the leftover jelly beans or nibbling on the chocolate rabbit you got for yourself.

Before you tear off the tinfoil & start chomping on the ears, you may stop & think to yourself, “I can’t be in the minority of people who like to torture little chocolate bunnies by eating their ears first.”

In fact, you are! 76% of Americans believe eating the rabbit feet first is the right way to eat your chocolate bunny.

As you probably know, Easter candy this time of year is virtually inescapable-from your box store retailers to your corner CVS or Walgreen’s to your co-worker’s desk, you probably feels like you’re swimming in chocolate (which is something many dream of but few achieve).

The reason why is that Easter is the second largest candy consuming holiday next to Halloween. Roughly 90 million chocolate Easter bunnies are made for Easter every year! And that’s not all- according to Kid’s Play:

  • Everyday 5 million marshmallow chicks and bunnies are made to prepare or Easter.
  • Peeps are the most popular non chocolate Easter candy.
  • Around 700 million peeps are sold for Easter.
  • Jellybeans became an Easter tradition in the 1930’s.
  • 16 billion jelly beans are made for Easter.
  • Cherry or red is the most popular flavor/color jellybean.
  • The most popular chocolate eggs are Cadbury Cream Eggs.

So chew on that as you chew on the last of the stale Peeps this Easter!
