7 Easter Candies That Make Your Teeth Bleed

Easter candy really is its own food group, and frankly, what more do you need?

Face it, America loves a holiday. And any holiday is really just an opportunity to ruin your diet and appetite with copious amounts of junk food shaped like healthy foods. Easter is the paramount example of this stupid (and awesome) tendency. As you get older, it seems that not only does less candy make us sick, but even a small amount of sugar starts rotting your teeth as soon as you unwrap it. To avoid the extra cavities this spring, here's a list of classics guaranteed to make your teeth bleed.

Cadbury Crème Egg.
The Holy Grail of all Easter candy, the Cadbury egg has been carried on through generations of screaming, hyper kids. Now it has numerous incarnations, including a caramel version that isn't nearly as sweet as the original. Didn't you always wonder how they get the yolk to stay in the middle? What's that made of anyway?

Kraft Foods

Chocolate Bunny.
Every year, you pray the Easter Bunny will bring you two things: serious amounts of edible loot you'll let go stale rather than throw out, and a solid chocolate bunny. And then there was the mild let-down of only getting a hollow bunny instead. Wah waaahhhhh.

Olde Naples Chocolates

Peeps.
Coming in six electrically shocking colors but still just one nasty, sugar-encrusted flavor, Peeps are still the New Kids on the Block. Not only do they come in original chick peep, they also have Easter Bunny peep, chocolate butt-dipped chick peep, and chocolate-covered egg-shaped peep. That's just the Easter peeps--with all the other holiday varieties, you can have your own Peeps farm!
