I don’t know what the STATS say, but the first thing I would eat on my chocolate Easter bunny were the candy eyes….and if he were holding a candy bunch of flowers I’d eat that next…then the ears, arms, and then the rest….
LOL…cool question, Mindhealer! :))
Hope the Easter Bunny drops one off at my house tonight!
If not, well….I’ll just hit the 50% off sales on Monday…lol.
Good tries, but the correct answer is “Jelly Beans”.

Wikipedia? Ok, the history of the chocolate bunny and jelly beans is a bit obscure, (I don’t know the answers, so it was unfair of me to ask.) but the egg significance and word origin questions are reasonable.

It’s a word that means “Spring”. It’s a spring celebration.

The egg also represents the new blooming life of spring, as the world comes back to life. This is one reason why it also makes sense as a time for the Christian celebration of Jesus coming back to life and also bringing life back to humankind.

Rabbit candies were invented in Germany in the 1800s.

The great Willy Wonka.
Who was the first Easter egg given to?
a. King Tut
b. Jesus
c. Roman Emperor Tiberius
d. George Washington
I’m guessing (A) King Tut too, though I’d call it a decorated egg, not an Easter Egg, because Easter is a Northern European holiday/goddess, not ancient Egyptian. I do know that the decorating of eggs predates Easter, though I don’t know whether symbolism of spring/rebirth was attached to the decorated eggs in the other ancient societies.
The correct answer is “c. Roman Emperor Tiberius” (according to the iPhone app which is the source of my questions and answers.)
Which revolutionary office product was introduced on Easter, 1980?
a. Portable computer
b. Fax machine
c. Sharpie
d. Post-It Notes
