Hoppy Easter!

To celebrate Easter, here's some fun facts about favorite spring treats!

* Easter is the second-biggest candy holiday in the United States - the first is Halloween!

* Nearly 90 MILLION chocolate bunnies are made each year! That's a lot of hollow ears!

* Speaking of ears, that's the first part of the chocolate bunny that most people eat.

* Each Easter season, Americans buy more than 700 million Marshmallow Peeps, shaped like chicks, as well as Marshmallow Bunnies and Marshmallow Eggs, making them the most popular non-chocolate Easter candy.

* The most popular flavor of jelly bean is cherry.

* If all of the jelly beans eaten at Easter were laid end-to-end, they would circle the globe THREE TIMES!
