In these tough economic times, everyone is looking for cheap thrills. All you need are some peeps (Easter is just around the corner) and a microwave.
Toss a couple of peeps on a microwave safe plate - or a paper plate if you don't want to clean up marshmallow mess - throw into the microwave for 30 seconds and watch the little baby chicks balloon to godzilla chick size.
If you're a true adventurer, you'll eat the peeps afterwards.
