There's nothing that says "I'm not sure whether this is delicious or gross" like a glass of liquid Peeps.

Just in time for peak Peeps season (a.k.a. Easter), Prairie Farms Dairy is releasing Peeps-flavored milks in the flavors of chocolate marshmallow, marshmallow and Easter eggnog (unfortunately, it's non-alcoholic).

Even though the marshmallow and chocolate marshmallow flavors are made with reduced fat milk, each cup has a whopping 37 grams of sugar. A half-cup of the eggnog flavor has 20 grams of sugar, which constitutes as typical sugar-induced Easter goodness.

The World Health Organization, also known as the Peeps Party Poopers, recommended that sugar intake be limited to approximately 25 grams per day, leaving no room to dunk your Peeps in Peeps-flavored milk.

If you're confused about how to use the milk, the back of the carton boasts some handy recipes.

Unfortunately, the flavored milks have a limited rollout in the midwestern U.S. (Prairie Farms Dairy operates out of Carlinville, Illinois.) Time for a road trip.
