Brachs makes a version for easter called "chicks and rabbits" that are colored orange, yellow, or blue mixed together in one bag. Dont ask me what flavor they are, I would have to say sugar flavor. Yummy. 76.212.147.7 (talk) 13:18, 21 February 2008 (UTC) Sandy
 * They're actually different flavors. I know for sure yellow is banana flavored, the orange I think is orange, blue I have no idea. I'd assume berry or something, but it has that "Don't classify me since I taste good" thing going. TheJudge310 (talk) 19:03, 26 February 2008 (UTC)

When were they invented?
The article says "Circus Peanuts are a peanut-shaped marshmallow candy invented in the 1800s." Can anyone provide a citation for this? The earliest print ads for them seem to be from the 1920's. Ee60640 (talk) 23:07, 25 September 2008 (UTC)

"Pork skin"?
Isn't "pork" the meat? the skin would be "pig skin", wouldn't it? Rob Cranfill (talk) 23:35, 18 February 2009 (UTC)


 * Yes it would. Edited. CKyle22 (talk) 05:44, 7 November 2009 (UTC)

Why is it shaped like a peanut?
It's just marshmallow, it could be shaped like anything. Why is it shaped like a peanut? If no reason is known, it should be stated that no reason is known.
